Comic Con Dress Up: Twin Peaks

I have never dressed up for any convention before, and having obtained tickets this year to Comic Con, I figured I would dress up! The Twin Peaks aesthetic is filled with warm colors and plaid, as it takes place in the great northwest of the U.S. There’s also a pinch of vintage, with the major influence of the mysterious film noir, with the detective in a dapper suit and the women in vintage inspired clothing. I decided to go as Audrey Horne. Here’s what I wore:

Top: Hanes (Amazon)
Skirt: Hell Bunny (Unique Vintage)
Flats: Crocs (most comfortable shoes for a Con!!)

Dale Cooper Pin: TheSilverSpider (Etsy)

Terrifier (2017)

Image
Images and gifs have been circulating all over the internet of this creepy killer clown, so I figured I’d give it a shot! This film is a low-budget slasher film.  The main character of the film is reminiscent of Neve Campbell’s Sidney character in Scream, both in terms of similar physical appearance and character. The characters were all disposable, and the main focus is on Art the killer clown. While lacking plot and intense gore is not my taste, the best part about the film is Art’s random and creepy antics. Art is a mixture between a clown and a mime. His facial expressions can be quite funny, to just down right terrifying. If you’re too scared or don’t want to sit through the whole film, I definitely recommend you watch this scene in the pizza diner that is very memorable: https://youtu.be/H4doM2WQTXg Scoreboard: Gore: 5/5 Suspense: 1/5 Writing: 1/5 Creature Design: 4/5 Overall: 2/10

Bird Box (2018)

Bird  Box is an intense apocalyptic horror movie. It is based on the premise of a worldwide invasion of creatures who once seen, will induce its victims into a trance and commit suicide. A real life boggart if you will. Sandra Bullock plays a pregnant survivor, and shows her journey to stay alive along with the various people she encounters. Like A Quiet Place, this film plays on intense situations that allows the survivors to prevail without using one of their keen senses, in this case eyesight. The film has nail biting situations and found it to be well done, but I was left wanting more.  (Spoilers Ahead)  I had hoped for a creature reveal, or more background on the monsters. Were they aliens, or just highly intelligent creatures? Why were some people able to see them with the naked eye? Was there a purpose for this? How was the blind facility able to avoid these people? Overall this was an entertaining movie that could have had more depth in terms of character develop

Wonder Woman Review

Image
Wonder Woman is a film that tells the origin story of how the amazing super heroine came to be. The movie starts with Diana as a child/adolescent at her home on the isolated island utopia Themyscira, inhabited by all-female amazons, and her mother the queen. With the ethereal scenery, battle training sessions, and fantastic characters, I would watch a stand alone Themyscira film! When Diana first sets foot into 1920's England, the first time she's ever been off the island Themyscira, she's introduced to men, war, poverty, and women's suffrage. Her innocence and curiosity of man's world, and it's social constructs, is quite funny. For example, she asks why women would want to keep their bellies hidden by corsets, or why unmarried men and women aren't allowed to sleep in the same vicinity of each other. Her ignorance and innocence of man's world is also eye opening of how violence is ingrained and normalized in our society. Like telling a child for
