Troll 2

A family vacationing in a small town discovers the entire town is inhabited by goblins in disguise as humans, who plan to eat them.

Troll 2 with a rating of 2.6 on IMDB is known as one of the best worst horror movies. And I agree, it's a bad horror movie and because it really is so bad, it gets funny. Now I've watched this movie with Rifftrax because I really did not feel like watching it in a serious setting (which this movie should not be seen in anyway). If you don't know what Rifftrax it's funny commentaries along with the movie. It makes watching these types of movies much better! You can check out their website: http://www.rifftrax.com

Going back to the movie, it's called Troll 2 but there aren't any trolls in there WHATSOEVER. Nope, not even 1! And the green slime which comes whenever someone ate the food from the goblins (yes they are plenty of goblins, no trolls though) kind of reminds me of nickelodeon slime... "Troll 2 - sponsored by nickelodeon slime!" Wy not? 

Either way the movie is known for it's overacting and just generally bad acting like this scene which has been going around on youtube for what seems like forever:

"But then why watch it if you already know that it's a bad movie?"Because it's funny. These are not the type of movies you should watch in a serious setting. It's entertaining because -just like many other best worst movies- they weren't meant to be bad, but came out that way instead (don't ask how or why). And for one, I like to watch these movies with a bunch of friends and just comment on it and laugh while it's playing. So much fun! Perhaps while showing this movie, eat some green food and drink some green stuff! Just to get the atmosphere going.

Either way I recommend this movie if you're into the bad kinds of movies that turn out to be funny. If you're not sure whether or not it's your kind of genre, you can try watching it with Rifftrax. Then you're in the right type of setting for these types of movies. Here's a clip from the movie with Rifftrax:

 

A lab on a beach

It's been quite a while since I've written down a dream I've had. I either didn't have the time to sit down and forgot afterwards, or I only remembered vague parts, so it made no sense to write them down. But here is a short one! Even though it felt very long in the dream itself...

I was working in a lab near the ocean in the US (since the entire dream was in US english). The benches were also on the beach, which was a normal thing in this dream. I was working on an experiment and someone else was working next to me. After a while I noticed he was just standing there doing nothing. So at first I figured he's just thinking, but this went on for a while. So I turned to him and asked what's up? To which he smiled and said nothing while he walked away. I was wondering whether I scared him off? He is known for being a very shy person and also pretty distant. Either way, other colleagues came in as I was finishing my work and we went for a run on the beach. It wasn't a very nice beach, a lot of pieces of wood and seaweeds and some bigger rocks here and there, so we had to be careful, because we wore no shoes. 

I was then alone on a side of the beach and enjoyed the view of the ocean, when I saw that shy dude fishing. I was thinking about going up to him and talk or not. I didn't want to scare him off, but he seemed like someone who would have an interesting point of view in life and therefor I figured we might have some really cool discussions. Then it got very crowded and I was back in the lab and I lost the sight of him. There were only people around me I didn't know and I couldn't get out because of the crowd. I started panicking and pushed some people aside so I could move in the crowd towards a door, only to realize this was a beach, there aren't any doors here. And I woke up. 

Image taken from google, it looked the most like the beach from my dream.

Cinema Macabre: John Carpenter Double Bill

Yesterday was the first night of the Cinema Macabre in the small theatre called Cavia, which was the John Carpenter night, better known for directing Halloween and The Thing. 

I attended the night along with a couple of friends and I did not realize you could only pay with cash, so thankfully a friend of mine payed for my ticket which, again thankfully, was only 5 euros. We grabbed a drink (I don't recommend the white wine) and we went ahead and chose our seats. There were about 7 rows, and after a short speech from the organizers the first movie started: Prince of Darkness. A movie from the 80's which is based on the end of the world through religious ways. I liked it. It had a couple of scares and I liked the story.

Then there was a break and the second movie started: In the mouth of madness. I really liked this one! Especially the Lovecraft references. It's a very different kind of horror. But this one was also part of the trilogy of movies John made revolving around the apocalypse. This one was through the art of writing books. I highly recommend this movie, it's weird and trippy with a couple of scares. I'll probably watch this one a second time, or buy the dvd.

I'm really glad they organized this event and I'm happy to hear that they are planning to organize these every 2 months. I think I'll be a regular here! It's a great way to watch older horror movies in a theatre setting, especially in such a cozy theatre. Do recommend! Especially if you love horror movies.

Breal fashion haul

Hiya!

So I've recently splurged and bought quite a bit of clothes... With (of course) the excuse that I have a job now and thus I need some fancy-er clothes! Not that I would be able to wear everything there, but hey, you have to pay the shipping costs, so if you have more, than the overall costs would be less per item. Yeah... Excuses I tell myself. I guess we all do right? (please tell me I'm not the only one)

These items are all from the brand 'Breal', and I am very happy with how these fit me! There wasn't 1 item I was not happy with, plus I got them all in super sale deals (which makes me so very happy).

Anyway without further ado, the pictures of the items!!

This was one of the items which I though, nice to go to work with and wear with some nice jeans to make it a bit less dressy. You can roll up the sleeves and fasten them with a button, or just leave them long - so versatile! And it sparkles! I love sparkles :D

A little vest, which I wanted to try for the days where you don't know whether you'd be cold or warm. So this I will use for layering. Especially on days where I'd have to run around in combination with working on the computer. And I like the lace detail.

A simple white blouse. What I really like about this one is that behind the buttons there is extra fabric so your bra wouldn't be showing if it pulls a bit. Why don't all blouses have this? I think it's brilliant! 

I don't have anything with these type of rushes and I've been looking at these type of shirts for a while now, so I figured, why not try it out? Plus it's a good shirt for work on warmer days! 

Okay so this is one of those that isn't very easy to wear to work since it sparkles so much! But as I've mentioned before, I love sparkles! The shoulders are cut out as well and in front (which shows as white here) is actually metal, which I think makes a nice detail! It's just so pretty! 

This is a reasonable simple black long sleeve, except that there are red sequins! So depending on what you wear underneath it could be both dressy as casual. Again - the diversity! 

This is my absolute favorite one! A mint green blouse with little metal blocks at the end of the strings which you tie either in a bow (like in the picture) or a simple knot. The sleeves are cut out in a very elegant way! And I've also taken a picture of the lace detail in the back. So pretty!! I absolutely love it!!

This is one of the fun shirts. The print is a silver metallic and the blouse is see-through (rrrrRRrrRr) so you could mix it up with a very bright tank-top underneath. Or just black to make the silver pop more. All depending on what type of look you're going for. The diversity!

This one is a bit more daring and very rock & roll! Which I love as well! But the pink girly part in it makes it more me. I guess I'm a girly rocker :D I tried to capture the sleeves, but that wasn't working out at all, so I'll just explain the detailing there. There's a zipper which you can zip open or keep closed, depending on whether you want to show your shoulders. I would wear it open because that accents the detailing more and makes it more edgy. 

And the pants! I'm always a bit scared of buying pants online, because the size just changes per brand and somehow I always buy them way too big. Which I guess is better than too small, because I have belts and thus the pants will stay up. These pants are very comfortable and just a little big too big - but a belt would be fine, plus this way there is minimum chance of the much dreaded muffin top! Which, I admit, I have with some pants... It's not cool or fun at all. The color of these pants doesn't come across well on the picture, they're more mango-like. while here they look more beige... So add a bit of orange and you'd be closer to the actual color :D 

Naturally when I saw they had scarfs, and in particular, scarfs with those fuzzy balls on them, I really could not say no. I am addicted to scarfs, and is one is so cute! I did lose one of the balls yesterday but (being super lucky) on my way home I found it again! So all is good! (I was very bummed out when I lost it, especially since I only got this order Friday) 

So that's my haul! For my doing this was a huge one! But somehow I feel like I needed it all. I noticed while looking at the pictures there's a color-trend in there... This was not on purpose. But I would 10/10 suggest this brand to everyone! The quality feels good and the size is great.
