Death on the Installment Plan with SUBWAY

Tonight I had dinner with my sister. We went to Subway. I have a few things to say. I think that they raised their prices because they had to pay that Jarrod actor more money to be in their commercials. I ask what it cost. My sister started to talk, and I guess she told me. So I ask the cashier. Yeah and I was not paying attention to what my sister said because most of the time she talks to much. Half of what she says is meaningless. So I just don't listen. Well, I ask the question twice. Then the cashier looked at me like I ask twice because we were white and she was Mexican.
Okay well first off, I eat at Taco Bell. So I do not give a shit if she is Mexican. Secondly my favorite director of all time is Guillermo Del Toro. That and the guy who does those Johnny Homicidal Maniac comic books is once again MEXICAN and his name is Jhonen Vasquez. I do NOT GIVE A SHIT. I AM NOT RACIST. FUCKING A. I listen to the DEFTONES AND I LISTEN TO JIMI HENDRIX.
She got all nervous and acted like she was going to cry after wards. I did not yell or get an attitude. I swear. I was not being rude. I honestly was just not going to listen to my sister talk about nothing. I love my sister but she does have a habit of talking about nothing for a long time. She has done it since we were kids.
Now I just want to go back up there and tell her about my sister and make MeriJo go up there and talk about something. Then I want to tell her its okay I am just weird to people. I am sorry, its not you. Its me. I was not being rude. I honestly do not have a problem with you. I just do not want to listen to my sister ramble unless I have to. I do know how people are. I have been friends with some. Plus I know how people can be in public. I have worked with some of them.
Okay well I have been watching movies. Not all the time but I have seen a few. Thanks to net flix. I am also reading a Louis Celine book called Death on the installment Plan. I am enjoying it so far.
So lets start off with -
Faust is a 1994 movie directed by Jan Svankmajer-
Do you all remember watching Mr. Rogers when you were a kid? Okay well did you ever think back upon it and how creepy it was that he was always out of breath when he took you into his home and then down into that creepy room where he talked to puppets? No one else thought that was a little weird? Thanks for being my neighbor. Yeah now we call those kind of guys weirdos and you do not talk to them. I also think most of them drive unmarked vans and always have candy in their pockets for kids. Okay well this movie reminded me of what if a group of college kids got a hold of a camera, old Mr. Rogers tapes, too much vodka, and a Peter Gabriel sledge hammer video. It was in between good and bad for me. It was funny in parts and kind of cool in a off the wall kind of way but so all over the place. This one puppet looked like George Michael and that made me laugh. Then the man had sex with one of the puppets and that was too dumb. There were these two guys in the movie who looked like at one time they were part of the cast of perfect strangers. It was kind of lame. The only funny thing that actually took place was that this homeless man took Faust's leg away when he died. That was only funny because when I was 20 years old, I went to this thrift store with Heather and this homeless guy kept walking around with a plastic foot and asking us why we had on body glitter. We had it on our eyes.

Audition is a 1999 movie directed by Takahsi Miike.
In this movie and mans wife dies and he holds auditions for a fake movie. The point is to find the perfect wife. He has a friend in the movie business who helps him set up the interviews. He ends up with a ghost. The ghost of a woman is horrible to him and attempts to kill him. He never wronged her. She just decided to hurt him. That was messed up. This movie is annoying because I am a woman and I know how annoying guys are but at the same time, I think that woman was completely out of line. I do not think anything she did was called for. I do not think two wrongs make a right. I also do not think that a bad childhood gives you a right to send hell to some guy. Guys can be assholes but there are girls out there who are bigger turds then most. I have been friends with some of them. I had a roommate a few years back named Jeanie whom I kicked out because she would not pay her half and she was the perfect example of a bad female joke. So when I walk by guys who have those lame tee shirts on- that say stupid things about women, It does not offend me. I am not like other girls but I know how women are. I also want to get back to the point of this movie. This movie jumped around a lot. The funniest part was the interviews. There was a woman who came in and said she had been to a mental institution and they said they would call her. Then after two other women had come and gone, that same woman came back in. All of a sudden, they looked at her and ask didn't we just see you? She said, yes but I was not done talking. They said you can go now. It was just funny. I did not care for it. The movie reminded me of a lot of women who are what you call fake friends. So my opinion is kind of jaded. It got on my nerves. I just wanted to yell at the girl and say get over it.

Kill Baby Kill is a 1968 movie directed by Mario Bava.
It is about a little girl who was killed in an accident. The mother brought the spirit back through psychic powers and is having the ghost haunt people and convince them to kill themselves. The village is cursed. The movie is set in the early 1900's but everyone has those swanky 60's early 70's hair cuts. That and those neato clothes. So its fake and too fashionable. The dolls in the little girls room were beautiful but it was too blah and over done. I think Rob Zombie could re do it and make it way better. Yes I went there. You knew I would. Sheri Moon and Rob would own it. I am serious and we all know it. All I am saying is that Mario Rava spent a little too much time with making sure everyone had the swanky hair cuts and cool jackets rather then the other goods.

Jennifer's Body is a 2009 movie directed by Karyn Kusama.
A rock band goes to a small town to play a show. They want to make it into the business. They decide to sacrifice a virgin to Satan. The thing is the girl they pick lies about being a virgin and the demon stays in her body and she then must eat flesh to feed the beast. Its lame. The sex scene is even worse. The blond chick actually says stick it in me. They are in love right? Okay yeah that was believable. Then he stops at one point and ask her if hes big? I started to laugh. Whats even better is the song the indi band sings in the movie. Its called up in the trees. It sounds A LOT like that song that was done on that show for INXS. You remember when they wanted to find a new lead singer. They were down to three people. The dude they have now, the chick, and that blond dude. Yeah the blond dude wrote a song. I do not know. I am just saying. blah I was not impressed. Although it did make fun of itself in a few places and that was okay. I will say this- THANK GOD for movie rentals because I am not sure if you can return DVDs because they suck. There is one last thing I will say about it and this is because I grew up listening to Hole. They named the movie Jennifer's Body. There is a Hole song with that title off of their "Live Through this" CD. What is odd- on the movie at the end when the credits were rolling, they played Violet by Hole. Which is off of the Live through this album too. Could they not get the rights for Jennifer's body or something?
