Gift Guide 2008: Karl’s Gift Guide
“Tis better to give then receive’ has always been the credo for the holiday season, since before I was a kid, but everyone who said that always wanted someone else to be on the giving side, but I digress.
Anyway, I‘m at the point in my life where the majority of my gift giving family and friends are remote, and out exchanging of gifts is simplified to gift certificates. But in the good old gift giving days, I always wished for a list to guide the givers in my life.
So I have put together a list of gift possibilities guaranteed to ease the pain of receiving this holiday season.
Gift Guides 2008: Horror
The holidays are upon us, and with the season comes the hassle of shopping for those pesky gifts. Well here‘s a quick guide of the best horror I saw this year.
1. The Zombie Diaries – This is my #1 pick of the year for the horror genre. An innovative, small budget film from England, where monsters meet monsters.
2. Wizard of Gore – For the fan of the off-beat, surreal plot that needs to be watched more that once to be comprehended. And every time you watch there’s something new still. If you liked Videodrome, you’ll love this.
3. Diary of the Dead – The latest offering from the maestro, George Romero, this flick gives another prospective of the beginning of the outbreak. Actually I was hooked at George Romero.
4. Mother of Tears – Another flick from across the pond, this time Italy offers up it‘s own brand of horror through Dario Argento. Witchcraft, medieval killing devices, and Asia Argento, yippee ti yo ki yay.
