Happy Birthday (And Thank You) George Lucas

When I was seven years old my uncle took my cousin and I to see "Return Of The Jedi." I hadn't seen the previous two films but through the toys and the tales my cousins and friends had told me I felt like I already knew the story. And indeed I did. This one film literally changed my life. When I see the film today I can still remember that seven year old sitting in the theater. When Emperor Palpatine attacked Luke Skywalker ("now Young Skywalker...you will die") and Luke shrieked in pain as his father Darth Vader looked on I can actually see my seven year old eyes widening. When Vader ultimately threw the Emperor over to save his son I cheered. As an older man now I tear up when I see the same sequence. It's the reason I make my own movies today. Movies are magic, and The Star Wars Trilogy is one of the most magical cinematic experiences of all. I may soon feel fatigue like the rest with a 'one-movie-a-year' plan that Disney has now, but I will NE

Remembering "The Sixth Sense" - Happy Birthday Haley Joel Osment!

Image
A very happy birthday to actor Haley Joel Osment, who was BRILLIANT in the great 1999 thriller "The Sixth Sense," directed by M. Night Shyamalan. Mr. Osment received a Best Supporting Actor nomination that year, becoming the second youngest actor to do so. And the film itself was M. Night's rise to fame in a very turbulent career. He seems to have gotten back on track and this is great to see. The film is one of the finest thrillers put to film.

Happy Birthday To The LEGEND, KANE HODDER!

Image
To a great majority of horror fans living today, the acknowledgment of Kane Hodder as a living legend is pretty much undisputed. He is recognized as the definitive Jason Voorhees of the Friday The 13th franchise, and has appeared in countless other horror projects, including the bloody good Victor Crowley of the Hatchet franchise. Not many actors this age give fans the feeling that they're in the presence of a modern day Boris Karloff.  To him I give a rousing Happy Birthday wish. I hope he continues do thrive in this genre that everyone here loves...horror. Thank you for your contribution to the horror genre, Mr. Hodder.
