westworld is now
although this robot chick is slightly more attractive than yul brynner.
ok, so i went to see the ring 2 this weekend, which i thought would be a very bad idea, because, well, i'm a coward. there were a couple of interesting images, and a weird bit with giant computer-generated deer, and naomi watts is fairly hot, but the movie was not scary at all. samara, the freaky girl that is apparently what baby jessica would have been 12 years later if no one had noticed she had gone down the well, is now just a caricature of herself. yeah, she's evil, yeah, she walks funny - we get it, already.
but today, i ran across some genuinely creepy stuff, care of www.engadget.com. it's like a prequel to "westworld" - it's happening. check out the video...

OK -I'm really glad to see another grown up admit to being a coward as far as scary movies go. HBO has been running "Taking Lives." It starts off with two teenage guys traveling through Canada in the early 80's. The opening song is "Bad" from U2's Unforgettable Fire album. Anything from Unforgettable Fire or Joshua Tree brings back warm, fuzzy feelings of High School and kissing some red-headded boy. THEN it started getting scary. I hung in there for another 30 minutes and it got too scary....I had to switch to the Disney channel.
