GARDEN PARTY MASSACRE Showcases Suburban Carnage in First Trailer

Garden Parties are often un-fun affairs; badly cooked hotdogs, shitty conversation with strangers, and warm beer served in plastic cups normally add up to a good time. But at the very least, your average get together doesn’t involve a homicidal bald man with a pickaxe. From director Gregory Blair, Garden Party Massacre’s first trailer makes the film seem like it’s going to be a seriously meta (and seriously funny) little horror comedy. Some of the trailers best moments; “Wes and I are vegetarians.” “You don’t eat meat?” “Well I wouldn’t say that.” “Where did he get a pickaxe in suburbia?” “I was married once, but he died.” “Suicide?” And of course there’s that badass theme song that plays at the end. Does Garden Party Massacre look like a masterpiece? Maybe not. Does it look like a hell of a lot of low budget, cheesy fun? Absolutely. I know I’m going to give it a watch just to listen to the

Tick Tock – An Original Story: Part 2

Part One here “Can I help again today Dad?” “Of course son, come on.” It was time to wind the watch. He looked forward to watching his father reverently remove the watch from its stand in the glass case on the bookshelf in the den of their house. Gently he took the watch down and laid it on a soft piece of material on the desk next to a lamp. He sat on a stool next to his father watching his father’s skilled hands polishing the watch’s casing. Then he slowly opened it, blew out imaginary dust from the hinge, and polished the crystal. Then, with his eyes glued to the project, he watched his dad carefully wind the watch three and a half times, listen to it tick and listen to it tock. Then, following another quick wipe-down he tenderly set it back in the glass case. “This watch must be wound every day. It is important never to
