My wife and I took Friday off so that we can see Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy at a decent time. I'm really looking forward to it. She's excited about Alan Rickman's involvement in the flick. She really digs that guy for some reason. Maybe I should be glad he's just a voice.
We rented some movies this weekend, including Closer, I Heart Huckabees and House of Flying Daggers. However, the one that I will forever regret paying the money for was one called Haunted House. Do not ever rent Haunted House. Haunted House was the most horrible, awful, tragic waste of time I have ever experienced. It's a movie that claimed to be similar to Blair Witch Project and Session 9, but it's not. I swear I want to puke just thinking about it.
Haunted House is supposed to be about a couple of filmmakers who plant some "scary things" and hidden cameras in a house and they tell some actors to react to the traps. They follow the actors around and record their reactions to the supposed "scary things". In the meantime, two more actors are sitting around outside having the most boring conversation that two people can have. I didn't get too far into the movie because it caused my brain to turn to mush. I really wish I had picked up Saw instead.
