Straight from the time worn world of the internet I bid you hello. Who in their right mind doesn’t enjoy science fiction, horror? Not I, awkward segue aside, the two genres make rather good bedfellows, not certain many would agree, but at this day and age, many forget science fiction was (arguably) birthed during the nascent years of Gothic fiction, which itself would transform into the crudely titled genre of horror fiction.
Though science fiction has largely lost the trappings inherited by horror fiction, earlier works, particularly that of the mid twentieth century has a distinct gloom about it, a heavy paranoia usually associated with works of horror. Horror and science fiction are the writings of ideas, really. That’s what excites your intrepid host, ideas, usually of the miserable bastard sort.
The haunted house and the lonely (derelict?) space shuttle careening through soundless space have more in common than is often thought.
I don’t have many aims, twaddle off during free hours about something, hopefully amusing. And, likely your author here will try to stick to this loose topic, truth be told little else interests me, makes good brooding fuel.
I think, some good controversy should do us a rather good start.
Soon enough I’ll upload a review, or, honestly a collection of my own thoughts/opinions on the contested cult film Event Horizon, it ain’t going to be pretty. I’ve honestly little good to say of the film following the first act. Shortly after that I’ll give some opinions on the science fiction themed videogame Gemini Rue, bit of an indie darling that one, and for a good reasons too.
So, does that sound like a good start? I should hope so.
Stick around, maybe we’ll get a good scare or two out of it, maybe I’ll introduce you to a good film, or two, maybe a book... or five?
Anything to give you temporary leave of your utterly dull life, hey, I only said what everyone was thinking...
You dirty whore bitch.
