Movie Night

After a five and a half hour drive from Ithaca to Northboro Massachusetts I finally arrived home. It has been 4 months since I left for football camp in early August. Upon my arrival I sat down to dinner with my family in the our living room. After a delicious dinner my mom suggested that we watch a movie as family. We stumbled upon the movie Wanderlust.

Wanderlust is Directed by David Wain and produced by Judd Apatow. It was the perfect movie for the mood I was in after a long car ride. Paul Rudd and Jennifer Aniston were the two lead actors who played a happy couple from New York City. On a roadtrip down to Atlanta the couple stumbles across a hippy commune and their life would be changed forever. Rudd and Aniston both delivered nice performances and my family and I laughed throughout the film.

It is so nice to be home with my family. After a long football season and a crazy first half of the semester being home for Thanksgiving break is a much needed breath of  fresh air. I look forward to more movie nights with my family throughout the week. I'll keep you posted! Enjoy the break everyone.

ThanksKilling

Appropriate title for the timing. As most of you knew I was watching Thankskilling recently and it was extremely funny. I looked it up on IMDB and it said (the ultimate low budget experience which is exactly what it was.) All of the "bad parts" of it are meant to add to the funny aspect  of it. It is listed under comedy thriller horror. So, if you like all three you should watch it. It had me laughing all the way through. I think it is especially funny to those of us wo appreciate production because of its featured bad acting, terrible lighting, horrible scripting, and terrible camera work. I also noticed that it's budget was "estimated $3,500". Probably only including the guns and amo, fake blood, camera and tripod. I even found the theme song to be catchy. I especially liked the echoing turkey gobble in the background! R-rated for good reason, but not unbearable. So while you're all enjoying some turkey this thanksgiving you should plop down to watch Thankskilling this season.
