  • Tales from the Darkside: The Movie

    tales_from_the_darkside_the_movie

    Intro:

    Whenever a person is taken hostage, the best thing they can do is buy time. Some how distract the kidnapper so that you have more time for a possible rescue or escape to take place. One of the best ways in doing this is with stories. Telling stories that attract the attention of the person will (hopefully) gain their attention and give you an opportunity to escape, like the daring kid in the 1990 release of John Harrison’s “Tales from the Darkside: The Movie.”

    Intro:

    For those that know me well, you may know that I live on the outskirts of the ghetto. Yes, I live VERY close to the ghetto but I’m not directly in harms way of any crazy mishaps that could be present in the ghetto. So many stories that are hidden within the hood that we on the outside do not know about, like the stories in the 1995 release of Rusty Cundieff’s “Tales from the Hood.”

  • Twilight Zone: The Movie

    twilight-zone-movie

    Intro:

    Sometimes we see, hear, and feel things that are so bizarre, so frightening, that they must be from an alternate reality, a different dimension. Perhaps the stories of four otherwise ordinary people encountering these events in The Twilight Zone. You’ll meet an angry bigot, a cheerful old man, an unusual little boy who befriends a wayward teacher, and a very anxious flyer during your travel through the rift between shadow and light

    Fellow SquidFlickians, I am leaving today for my five-week stay in the Governor’s Scholar Program. I will not be able to participate fully in much of the SquidFlicks Summer School content, but I am leaving you in good hands – Patrick Farmer will take over as head editor during my absence. I will continue to post minor updates whenever I can. See you  at the end of July! I have a surprise for you if you’re good! (actually two surprises….) Bottom line here is: YOU BETTER BE GOOD!

    Also, SquidFlicks has a Facebook group. Join it or I wont be your friend anymore! Kidding! But join it please! =) Go here – http://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=logo#/group.php?gid=93904702509
