No Internet? That's My Nightmare

31/5/10
Well my internet is currently down, which is pretty sucky... I'm just typing this into wordpad so my future self can post it for all you wonderful people to read =P

Earlier today the internet just stopped, the phone wasn't working or anything. So I decided to go to my brothers place early to have dinner and wait a few hours until 9:30, when we went to see Nightmare on Elm Street. I haven't seen any of the classic ones (only a couple of tiny bits), so I can't give a comparison between the classic and the remake, but I can give my impression of the remake.

The movie is filled with tense moments in which the creepy music, dark areas and flickering lights get your heart beating faster before you even get a glimpse of the movies antagonist. The appearances of Freddie as he constantly seems to come out of no where are usually accompanied by sudden loud tones/noises to startle you even if you guessed what was coming.
There're distinct shots throughout the movie that show the distorting of time/space which usually represent the characters entering into the dreamworld that is Freddies. Though there are times where these changes are quite subtle, leaving you wondering whether freddie's just about to pop out or not.
Personally I think that you should go watch it for yourself. Although I didn't pay (thanks bro ^,^), I guess I can at least say that it was well worth the time =P

Apparently we can either have the internet or the phone working, the connection is faulty or something, so dad's going to buy a new one sometime (I hope that time is soon) =(

Last night I did get a bit paranoid as I walked down the hall with none of the lights on, but I didn't have much trouble going to sleep and I actually had a nice dream... Which is quite unusual without having watched a "scary" movie xD
