Here are some pics of me in costume shortly before I went to a Halloween party. I wasn’t going as anyone in particular, and I looked like a combination of the Phantom of the Opera, the Grim Reaper, and Zorro. Naturally, I thought I looked pretty badass!





          I discovered recently however that my costume looked a lot like a villain in the Trick r’ Treat horror movie preview on the 300 DVD. This character plays some sort of masked vampire…not too shabby. Unfortunately, even though this movie was scheduled for and October ‘07 release, it has been pushed back till sometime next year.

          I’ll keep a look out for this movie, I’m curious to see myself in action. MUAHAHAHAHA! Yeah, I’m a dork. Get over it.

          Here’s a list of some of my favorite horror movies. I’m sure I’m missing a lot of good ones, but these are some of the best I’ve seen. These films are awesome because they brought original ideas to the horror genre, have great special effects/action sequences, and mostly importantly have frightened generations.

Check them out when you get a chance. What are some of your favorite horror movies?

          House on Haunted Hill is the classic 1959 horror film starring Vincent Price as a millionaire with a little too much time on his hands. He invites some strangers to the house for a “Haunted House” party with a twist: If you can stay the night in the house, you win $10,000. Things aren’t what they seem when it’s not so much about staying in the house, but staying alive!

Castle created a pulley system that would allow a plastic skeleton to fly over the audience during suspenseful scenes in the film.

     Is it possible to make a living from running a web site in a year with no prior experience working with web sites? Bryan Clark has no doubt about it as he has made this his goal with his site OneMansGoal.com.

     Clark, a 25 year old self-proclaimed serial entrepreneur, started OneMansGoal.com on June 28, 2007, and in under 4 months, it is clear that he is very determined in reaching his goal.

Writing daily about different methods bloggers/webmasters can use to monetize and network their sites, Clark continually provides useful information on his site that I enjoy reading about frequently. When he’s not telling us of a new way to help improve our success, he lets us know of his own success with reaching his year goal, another reason I enjoy visiting his site.

     It’s clear from his monthly updates, that Clark is well on his way to earning a sizable income from the methods he discusses on his site. His doggedness in pursing his goal has allowed him to reach milestones with his site in such little time that I can’t help but be amazed and commend Clark. During his last month he made $675 in revenue from his site, and over 30,000 pageviews which is very impressive for a site in its infancy. A lot of bloggers haven’t reached numbers like those after many months of continued blogging.

     The main reason I think Clark’s goal is awesome, is that it isn’t a journey he’s taking alone, but one he is actively engaging his readers in. His goal isn’t solely his own, but one he shares with many webmasters online. In a way, he isn’t just working to achieve his own goal of financial success online, but the goal of many other people out there. He continually gives useful advice, and I recommend you check out OneMansGoal.com if you have an interest in becoming successful online.

          Nosferatu is the first film adaptation based off of Bram Stoker’s famous novel, Dracula. Released in 1922, this silent film has become a staple in horror film and is a must see for any horror film lover. Because the film was an unauthorized adaptation of Dracula, the characters names were changed so “Count Dracula” became “Count Orlok”, and “vampire” became “Nosferatu”.

          Two versions of Nosferatu are provided for you to watch. The first is the most popular version available online, with the names of the characters and dialogue changed to match Dracula. The second version maintains the original names of the characters, has a different musical score, and tinted scenes. Both are excellent to watch and can be downloaded with the links provided below.
