TV Shows Wear Halloween Costumes Too

Most television shows do some kind of Halloween episode at least once. I think that these are the best ones because even if it is a serious show with deep plot lines the Halloween episodes can give them a chance to be sillier and makes some jokes. The shows that are already supposed to be funny are great because they really do stupid stuff. Most Halloween episodes have one thing in common, they all play "The Monster Mash". They probably all play this song because it is the best Halloween song ever. If a show does a Halloween episode every year than there are usually common elements.

Last night the new show Eastwick had their Halloween episode. In the town of Eastwick, where everyone tells stories about witches and the magical history of the town, their Halloween tradition is to fill coffins with bad memories and on Halloween night burn them all in a huge bonfire. So because of a bad new story one of the main characters, Joanna, gets kidnapped by the pastor and he puts her into one of the coffins and she almost burns to death, until one of the other main characters, Kat, uses her power to make it rain and put out the fire. This was a good Halloween episode because it had costumes, it was funny and had witches with magical powers.

Surprisingly Supernatural has only ever had one Halloween based episode, but it was great anyways. It all started when a witch made a guy start coughing up razor blades until he died, then a teenage girl was burned to death when bobbing for apples. Once Sam and Dean got to town they realized that the whole purpose of these killings was to fulfil an ancient spell to cause the rising of Samhain. Samhain was what they thought the origin of Halloween, he was a demon who could control all of the monsters and ghouls that people use for Halloween. To hide from him people would wear masks, pumpkins had faces drawn on them to turn him away and candy was left out to please him. All of these traditions were passed down into Halloween now. When he did rise he started to create zombies, ghosts, spirits, and other creatures that like to kill people. This episode was good because it was all about Halloween and how it began. I liked this episode even though it was bloodier than other Halloween episodes.

The show Las Vegas, which is cancelled, only did two Halloween episodes on in the first season and one in the fifth season. In the first season "The Night the Lights of Vegas Went Out" was when someone in their casino, the Montecito, was shot moments after the power went out in Las Vegas. Three of the main characters, Delinda and Nessa and Sam, where all on the casino floor trying to keep everyone settled until security could get out of the surveillance room and come down to ID the killer. So while everyone was cut off from each other around the hotel the girls on the floor were trying to find out who was the insane killer. When the lights cam back on the discovered that it was a women who shot her husband. In the fifth season "When Life Gives You Lemon Bars" Delinda hired a new pastry chef for one of the restaurants in the Montecito who was pregnant. She later found out that this women was insane. She thought that her opinion was the only one that matter and everyone in the world was only there to eat her pastries. This women was not as insane as the one from season one. At the end of the episode everyone went to the Halloween party dressed in their costumes and had a good time with the rest of the staff. These episodes where good because Las Vegas was supposed to be a funny show and they were able to play with it for Halloween, the first season they decided to do a serious episode where Sam started to lose her mind and a goofy episode in the fifth season.

Other classic Halloween specials are on every Halloween too. One of the best Halloween specials is Look its the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown. Other good Halloween specials are the Caster the Friendly Ghost movies and shows. Halloween is not complete unless you watch one of these classic Halloween specials.

Halloween episodes are good because they allow the people in the show to have a holiday where they can be different from their characters. For Eastwick it was a time for homicidal pastors, for Supernatural it was a time for a super demon to bring all types of evil to an unsuspecting town and for Las Vegas it was a time for murdering wives or hormonal pastry chefs. Halloween is a time of the year when you can act and dress differently than who you are and it is the same for television shows, they can be whatever they want to be.

Worst Parking Job Ever

How could you park your car like this. This is the worst parking job ever. Clearly there were two more cars there, but she decided to drive up onto the cars anyways. I would be really upset if someone just drove on top of my car. The police were right to arrest the driver because she was being stupid. I think that no matter what you did you should always stay at the scene of an accident until you can inform the owner of the other car what happened or to explain to the police, especially if you drove onto their car. This is probably the stupidest thing this person has ever done. She seems to speed up when she gets to the other cars, so it looks like it was intentional even though it was not. As soon as she saw this video she should have gone to the police because they would not have to spend all of the ours looking for her and they were obviously going to find her. If she was a member of the gym then someone would have recognized her car. The owner of the car did not react enough to the situation in my opinion. All her said was "It kinda sucks", if most definitely sucks way more than kinda, how about what the hell was she thinking this is really horrible luck. I think that she should get a fine or do community service type activity because I do not think that she should get any special treatment because she is old. There should be a new requirement for people over 60 for driving. I think that people over 60 should have to retake their driving test every 5 years to make sure they still can safely because some people start to lose their eyesight, their hearing or they just get confused by somethings that they didn't before. She should have known that she was going to get caught and should have turned herself in.

Does Anyone Have Any Original Halloween Ideas?

I think that horror movies should come out at different times in the year instead all at once. Every year they make horror movies for Halloween. These movies are always basically the same. There is always a psychotic killer who is trying to kill a innocent person, usually a teenage girl, and then the killer dies in the end. The only movie that does not fit into that plot line is Saw. Saw is no better than the others though.

The movie Halloween came out a year or two ago. This was like the 11th remake of the movie. The original Halloween had almost ten sequels, which just got worse and worse as they went on. The new one was not that bad it was better quality than the the sequels that came out (every Halloween) for years, but it was not as good as the original. The only thing that was better than the original was that they showed how he became a killer through his childhood instead of skipping fifteen years. In August Halloween 2 came out, which means they are probably going to make an insane amount of new Halloween movies. Overall I think that the Halloween series is better than some of the other horror movies that come out at the end of every October.

Another movie that they made way too many sequels for was Friday the 13th. Friday the 13th was about Jason, who just killed everyone instead of going after one person, like in Halloween. If Jason tried to kill you it would be better to kill yourself before he could get to you because they way he killed people was horrible. There was a remake of this movie last year that was really good. I thought that it was better than the original movie, mainly because of the effects and the people in the movie. I think that Friday the 13th will become a popular Halloween movie franchise again and we will see another sequel in the near future.

Sometimes they take characters from different horror movies and put them in the same movie, such as Freddy vs Jason. This was almost the worst movie ever. First of all it was a bad idea because neither one of them can die. It was a whole movie where they tried to kill each other and in the end they both survived. I do not ever know haw they met each other since Jason lives on some camp somewhere and Jason lives in peoples dreams but some how they got together and had a death match. The movie was really long too, it was not like a short 1-1.5 hour movie where they just kept attacking each other, there was actually a story and it was almost two hours.

Who ever thought to make Saw is probably insanely rich. For some reason the Saw series is huge. Last Friday Saw VI was released. I only watched Saw I and could not even see a reason to make a second one, all it is about is some jerk kidnapping people and killing them is horrible ways. Apparently in Saw V the killer was killed by someone, but now in Saw VI he is somehow alive again and killing people. At least people in Canada are starting to realize the insanity of the Saw series. On the opening weekend for Saw VI it only made 900 thousand dollars in Canada and was beaten by Law Abiding Citizen, Where the Wild Things Are, Couples Retreat, and Paranormal Activity. Unfortunately Saw VI was #2 in the box office for North America, making $13.78 million. I think that all six are stupid and they come out with new ones too fast.

Halloween movies are good on television. A Halloween movie that is on Family Channel every year is the Halloweentown series. There were four Halloweentown movies, they are about a family of witches who live on Earth but go travel to another dimension filled with all of the things we dress as for Halloween who live in peace away from humans in Halloweentown. Another Halloween movie from Family is Twiches. Twiches is about two teenage girls who find out that they have a twin and they are both witches and they go do magic stuff and save their real family who lives in another world from evil people. A classic Halloween movie that is on most channels around Halloween is Betelgeuse, it was just an excellent movie and everyone should watch it at some point.

Overall I think that most Halloween movies are too similar and you can imagine what it going to happen, so they are not that scary. Halloween, Friday the 13th, The Nightmare on Elm Street and Saw are only the beginning of the list of movies that are remakes or sequels or are just the same as any other horror movie. Some of the other would be The Grudge, The Ring, The Omen, Orphan, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Amityville Horror, Twilight or Jeepers Creepers. Personally I would rather watch a TV show that is centered around horror themes, like Supernatural. Halloween movies are good but they need to come up with some new original ideas and make more money like they are doing with Paranormal Activity or like they did with The Blair Witch Project. There are too many Halloween movies that are all the same!

Review: Twilight

Last night Twilight premiered on the Movie Network. Everyone said that it was a good movie and it seemed to be the biggest thing ever when it came out. Since everyone went on and on about this movie I decided to watch it. It was really bad. I did not see what all the hype was about. The general story made sense, but that was the only good part about the movie. The effects sucked, the actors could not act, and everyone in the movie looked like they were dying. This movie was not even close to what I heard about it and I would rate it 1.5 out of 5.

So the general story was that this girl,Bella, moves from Arizona to Washington to live with her father and she meets a boy who ends up being a vampire. You would expect that most people would not decided to start dating the vampire, but this girl decided did anyways. The vampire was named Edward and seemed like the creepiest person ever, when Bella came to her biology class she was told to sit next to Edward. Over the coarse of the hour and a half class Edward was turned around in his seat staring at her. For the first 30 minutes of the movie Edward is basically stalking Bella. I did not make the connection from how Bella and Edward went from hating each other to being hopelessly in love. Twenty minutes into the movie they did not like each other and were mean to one another, but thirty-five minutes in they were hopelessly in love and could not live without each other.

Almost everyone in the movie was ridiculously pale. Whoever did the make-up for this movie needs to go meet real people and see what they look like. Nobody is that pale. The only characters who would be were the vampires because they are dead. Bella moved from Arizona, its really sunny there why would she look like she was dead. Everyone is this town looked like they were dying. Another strange thing about the vampires was the reflected sunlight, since when do vampires reflect sunlight. All of the vampires in the movie would get all shiny when they went into direct sunlight. The way that Bella figured out that Edward and his family were vampires made everyone else in the town look really stupid. The vampires had lived in the town for years and no one figured it out, but Bella comes in and in a few weeks she Googles vampires and get all this information and outs it together like its nothing. Edward did not seem to be trying very hard to conceal that he was a vampire.

This movie had the worst special effects ever. Twilight had a huge budget and it looked like the spent none of it. How can television shows like Supernatural or Smallville have better special effects than a million dollar movie like Twilight. All of the vampires had super strength and super speed, but it looked like they were doing everything in normal speed. The super strength looked ridiculous the things they were lifting looked fake, they did not even try to make it look real. The super speed was the dumbest thing I've ever seen in a movie, it looked like they filmed things at normal speed and then used fast forward for the movie. And the final fight scene was just the worst scene ever filmed. Who ever did the effects needs to go back to film school.

The acting in Twilight was not very good either. Everyone was either really angry, really happy, or really depressed and there was no in between. The actors need to learn to show more emotion and to tone down the emotions that they were showing in the movie. The way that Bella and Edward interacted looked like Edward was about to kill her. Overall I thought that Twilight did not live up to the hype. The make-up was horrible, the special effects should result in someone being fired and the story was missing pieces. And all of the posters for the movie make it look like he is trying to date a little kid, and make him look like a stalker. This is just my opinion but I would not recommend this movie to anyone. 1.5 out of 5.

Dead People Should Stay Dead

This was the strangest episode of House this season. The case that they had to handle was insane. First a man admitted himself into the hospital claiming that he was going to die when he turns 40. He thought this because he father died on his 40th birthday and his grandfather died on his 40th birthday and he figured that it was genetic. Of course nobody in the hospital believed him, except for Cameron who took the case to the team. The team was all ready to treat him, but there was nothing to treat because he was a healthy man with no illness at all. House told the team that they had to let him go because he is not sick. Four hours after they released him their patient died. He was declared dead on the scene by the paramedics and was brought back to the hospital. When House and Foreman started to perform an autopsy they noticed that the patient was bleeding, dead bodies don't bleed. Their patient stared screaming and almost scared Foreman and house to death. They spent the remainder of the episode trying to solve the case because now one of the symptoms was resurrection. They eventually found out that he had a blood clot in the back of his neck that was going to force his brain to shut down the heart that will eventually kill him, just like his father and grandfather. They were able to cut it out and save his life. Another interesting point in the episode was how much of a jerk House is.

House is not a good friend. He is a mean person. He has been trying for the past six episodes to make Wilson so uncomfortable that he converts is study into an extra bedroom. Once House got into his new bedroom he started hearing voices, this concerned him because he thought that he was going insane again. He was afraid that he would have to go back to the hospital if the voices did not stop. When he went to tell Wilson about the voices during the night he quietly went into Wilson's bedroom and heard him whispering to his dead girlfriend, Amber. The next morning he told Wilson that he was going to readmit himself into the hospital because he wanted Wilson to admit that he was talking to himself. When Wilson did not admit anything House told Wilson that he knows what he is talking about and Wilson replies that House is a jerk because he feels the need to make fun of him because he talks to his dead girlfriend. Wilson told House after that than it makes him feel better and that he misses her. House should have felt bad about this because the reason that Amber died was because House made her ride the bus home with him and the bus got into a car crash that resulted in her dying a few hours later. By the end of the episode House was trying to figure out if talking to dead loved ones really made you feel better and started to talk to his dead father. He found out that talking to his father made him feel better.

This episode of House was insane because their patient came back to life. I thought that it was ridiculous that they had a dead person come back to life because it is impossible. They never really said how it happened they just seemed to get over it right away. The episode was not that good because their case became stupid as soon as the guy came back to life, it was good when he came in saying that he was going to die when he turn forty in a few days. The other main part of the episode was stupid too. House should not make fun of Wilson if talking to himself makes him fell better. Overall I think that this episode of House was a 2 out of 5.

The Past Always Comes Back To Haunt You

Last night old enemies returned on Smallville. In the previous season Oliver Queen framed a man named Winslow Shot (Toyman) for the murder of Lex Luthor. Oliver killed Lex because of a fight that they have been in since high school. It was a good episode because it is always better when they bring characters back because most of the villains on TV shows would be upset that they went to jail but they usually never come up again. I liked this episode and I think that they need more episodes with characters from the past.

Toyman was released from prison and went straight to Metropolis to try to make Oliver come out of hiding. Oliver was in hiding because he was trying to run away from the fact that his actions directly led to Jimmy Olsen's death. Toyman started to blow up many of the Queen Industries plants but none of it was getting Oliver;s attention. Eventually Tess Mercer went to find Oliver and found him in a bar fight somewhere in Mexico. She convinced him that he needs to come back to Metropolis to speak to his shareholders. When Oliver stepped up on stage to address everyone he was informed from Toyman by an eyepiece that he was standing on a pressure plate attached to a bomb and if he did not do whatever Toymen said then everyone in the building would die. Clark found out about the bomb after Oliver started to give an unusual speech and he used his x-ray vision on the stage and saw the bomb. Clark informed Chloe of the bomb and she used the security system in the Ace of Clubs to evacuate the building. After everyone had left Clark saw that Toyman was there and he went over to talk to him. Clark realized that if Oliver stepped off of the pressure plate than Toyman would be killed as well and than Toyman would still lose so the man that he was holding could not have been Toyman, it was a robot. Once everyone had left Oliver stepped off of the plate to try to kill himself so that he would not have to deal with himself anymore. Clark went over to Oliver after the party and told him that he was sorry for not being their for him when he really needed it.

This episode was really good. The only thing that was not so good about this episode was that there was too much going on. The main story with Toyman, Clark got a new temporary new power to read peoples minds, and Lois was trying to get Clark to go on a date with her. I thought that all of the story lines in this episode could have been their own episode and that it was too much all at once. I thought that it was cool that Clark was able to read peoples mind but thought that since it was rushed the progression of the power was too quick, in other episodes when he get a new power it takes a while for it to be under control but in this episode he was able to read peoples mind right away. I thought that it was really stupid that Tess went to Toyman after he was arrested and gave him the kryptonite heart from Metallo. This episode overall was really good and i think that it would get a rating of 3 out of 5.

Tying Up Loose Ends

On Monday night House was on. The name of this episode was "Instant Karma". This episode was based around everyone trying to get their lives back to the way they were before House went to the hospital, before Foreman was department head, before Thirteen worked at the hospital and before Chase killed President Dibala. A billionaire came into the hospital and demanded that Dr. Gregory House treat his dying son. There were many problems with this case because dozens of doctors had already looked at the kid and they could find nothing wrong wit him except that he is dying. Foreman was asked by the board of the hospital to give a presentation on the Dibala case. Chase was afraid of Foreman would do at the presentation. Cameron was wondering what was wrong with Chase. House was trying to get Thirteen to come back to work at the hospital. Thirteen was trying to get away from her life at the hospital.

This episode started with the dying kid coming in with his father demanding that Dr. Gregory House treat his son. The only problem that Dr. Cuddy had with his request was the House has not received his medical license back yet after being admitted in a psychiatric hospital. So Cuddy decided to keep Foreman in charge of the department but House was to make all of the decisions and important choices. Foreman did not like this idea because if House messed up and the kid died than Foreman would have to take all the blame for it. Cuddy also told Foreman that he was to prepare a presentation of the board on the Dibala case. Chase tried to help Foreman make up a reasonable story to tell at the presentation because he did not want Foreman to tell everyone that he had killed Dibala. Throughout the entire episode Chase was giving Foreman new ideas and every time Foreman threw them back at him. Meanwhile House went and found Thirteen planning a trip to Thailand and offered Thirteen her old job, when she declined he hacked into her e-mail and cancelled her trip. Thirteen went to Cuddy, House and to Wilson trying to figure out what happened and none of them said anything. Wilson finally admitted to it and then went to House wanting the real story, House's reasoning was that she was an asset to the team, he chose her for a reason and he thought that Foreman was making a foolish and selfish mistake. The father of the dying kid thought that his son would get better if he gave all of his money away because of karma. After he gave his money away they decided that the son has a terminal illness and has only a few hours to live. After looking at some test results later in the day they realized that he did not have this disease and they started to treat him for a different illness and he was cured. Near the end of the episode Chase found an envelope on the table addressed to him and it was test results from a previous doctor that Dibala had seen and it shown that he had high cholesterol and that it could have caused what killed him. When Chase shown this to Foreman they both realized that sine neither of them had ordered it someone else in the hospital knows that Chase secretly killed a patient and Foreman did not turn him in.

I liked this episode because it tried to tie up all of the loose ends from the previous episodes in the rest of the season. I thought that House was right in thinking that the current power structure in the department is awesome because it would be great to be in charge of something but someone else take all of the responsibilities of being in charge. I think that House had different reasons for not wanting Thirteen to go away and that he just does not want of tell anybody. I still think that Chase should have to answer for what he did to Dibala and that he should not get away with murder. Since he has no consequences it shows that if you are a doctor you can get away with murder if you are just careful in what lies you tell. I thought that it was good the neither Foreman or Chase figured out who ordered the package with the test results because it makes them both worry about who in the hospital can end their careers whenever they want to. I liked the title of this episode because it related to the billionaire giving all of his money away so that something good would happen to his son and after a few hours his son had made a full recovery after being sick for months. I thought that this episode was very good and would be rated 3.5 out of 5.

Ever Wondered What Toys Do When Nobody is Around?

The toys are back in town and their in Disney Digital 3D. Toy Story and Toy Story 2 were re-released as a double feature in 3D on October 2nd. I went and saw the movie over the Thanksgiving weekend because I think that Toy Story is one of the best Disney movies ever. I thought that it was still very good and was better in 3D. The movie was about 3 hours, which is not really that long considering that you are seeing two movies in the time that it takes to watch some other ones like Lord of the Rings. I think Woody and Buzz Lightyear are two of the greatest characters ever. I liked this movie because all of the different toys have different personalities and some of them do not match with what kind of toy they are. The main idea with the Toy Story movies is what do toys do when there are no people around, according to Toy Story they are alive and live their lives until their owner comes back and they pretend they are just plastic again. I thought that the movies were both great and I enjoyed watching them again.

In Toy Story it starts on Andy's birthday and all of his toys sit in his room eagerly awaiting to hear what he is getting for presents hoping that none of them are replaced. Once Andy get a new Buzz Lightyear action figure he starts to replace Woody as Andy's favorite toy. Buzz thinks that he is the real Buzz Lightyear of Star Command and does not realize that he is a toy. Woody starts to get jealous of how much Andy and all of the other toys like Buzz and he accidentally pushes Buzz out of the window. When Woody goes out to find him they both get left at a gas station. They finally made it to the Pizza Planet restaurant to find Andy but Buzz goes into a claw game because he thinks that it is a real space ship that will take him to Star Command. Woody goes in to get him and they both end up with the evil kid you lives next door to Andy, Sid. While in Sid's house Buzz saw a commercial for Buzz Lightyear action figures and he realizes that he is not a Space Ranger, but just a child's plaything. Sid's idea of playing with toys is either blowing them up are putting the pieces of one toy onto another. Sid gets a rocket that will blow Buzz up. Woody stages a rescue mission with all of Sid's toys to save Buzz and to get them back to Andy's house before he moves away the next morning. Woody saves Buzz and they almost get to the moving truck, but when Woody gets their first and tries to use RC, a remote control car, to go get Buzz Piggy, Rex and Mr. Potatohead throw Woody out of the truck because they think that he is trying to kill RC and Buzz. Buzz and Woody use RC and the rocket to shoot themselves down the street towards the truck and instead fly into the van so that Andy would see that he did not leave them behind. Toy Story definitely gets a 4.5 out of 5.

In Toy Story 2 Woody is stolen and Buzz sets out to find Woody with the help of Piggy, Rex, Mr. Potatohead, and Slinky. Woody was stolen by a toy collector who wants to sell the Woody Roundup gang to a museum in Japan. Woody meets three new toys at the collectors apartment. The new toys are all of the set that Woody belongs to their names are Jessie, Bullseye and Stinky Pete the Prospector. They all want to go to Japan because their owners had given them up and they did not think that they could love another kid the same, except the Prospector because he wanted to go because he had never been loved by a child. When the toys get to the toy store that they think Woody is in the find a newer version of Buzz Lightyear. This Buzz also thinks that he is a Space Ranger and is the real Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, he never figures it out. Eventually they find Woody and they go to the collectors apartment to save him but Woody has decided that he does not want to go because at the museum he will be loved by children forever. The rest of Andy's toys get back to the elevator and are stopped by the nemesis so Buzz Lightyear, the evil Emperor Zurg. Zurg and the new Buzz get into a death match and it is revealed the the new Buzz is the son of Zurg, exactly the same as the scene from Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back in Cloud City when Darth Vader tells Luke Skywalker "Luke, I am your father." Once Woody comes to his senses and convinces Jessie and Bullseye to go with him back to Andy's House the other toys use a Pizza Planet delivery truck to get to the airport to rescue Woody. Buzz and the other toys fight with the Prospector until Woody and Bullseye are free, but Jessie is loaded onto the plane. Woody goes with Buzz to rescue Jessie from the plane and just before it takes off Woody and Jessie jump off the plane to Buzz and Bullseye. Toy Story 2 I think should get a 4 out of 5.

The Toy Story and Toy Story 2 Double Feature I thought was a good idea to release because on June 18, 2010 Toy Story 3 comes out and all of the little kids would never have seen the first two. The trailer for Toy Story 3 was also shown during this movie. Toy Story 3 will take place over the summer before Andy moves away to go to collage and Woody and Buzz have to figure out what they are going to do without him after all of the toys are given away to a PRESCHOOL! Obviously none of the toys want to go to a preschool because they get destroyed rather quickly and the have to figure out how to survive and breakout. One of the Best Disney movies is Toy Story and Toy Story 2 is right up there as well. Both movies were re-done in Disney Digital 3D so that the whole thing had depth so it was more realistic instead of the background being out of focus the fore ground was just closer to the audience than the back ground. With the 3D it the animation did not look 2D, it had depth and everything was more solid and you could tell the order of the layers of the animation. The Toy Story movies were some of my favorite movies when I was a little kid and they are still one of my favorite movies now. The Toy Story and Toy Story 2 Double Feature I think would get a rating of 4.5 out of 5.

This is the Trailer for the Double Feature from YouTube
