Gunnuts, outlaws, creeps, serial killers...

It was the summer of 2007. Having no place to go and nothing better to do, with noone to meet as a full time lazy creep job I decided I will see a long awaited movie called the zodiac. I expected boring piece of crap about emotion-less investigation and boring trial scenes where in realistic costumes and photography I will numb myself with a 2 hour movie as I did on a regular basis. The premiere in my country was ... probably also around the 4th of july. Getting out of the army for a short time pass I felt that moment of a glorious freedom, an asylum from everything, I had a 3 day pass... So actually it got me pretty excited about going out and watching something all by myself without any reason at all. Well so during the warm evening I got into cool cinema where I could still smell the fresh summer air from the outside with some small dose of a typical smell from the cinema. Barely 20 people were in the room. No wonder, cause it was still pretty early.

So they finally played the movie. It all started like one of those "The wonder years" with a huge bag of american middle class idyllic peaceful life in the burbs. Thats the typical idea people have about the sixties and early seventies. In the burbs everybody knows everybody, everything seems the same when you pass by with a car like in the opening scene. 4rth of july, people are celebrating free time just as I did. From a grease-type of idylla the movie turns into "the car" type of horror movie, and the killer suddenly starts shooting in a slow motion high res 1080i resolution, with an incredible donovan lead song playback in the background. You just can't make any creep any cooler than that. Just shooting, no words, just the non-spoken-word.

The kind of mystery that you could very clearly see in the twin peaks series. Just where nothing bad can happen because everybody knows eachother someone suddenly a very intense execution takes place in the burbs. You can see that the characters are living their normal lives, some of them probably already know who it was just in the town's mysterious inner relations are not willing to relase any info regarding the crime. We are clearly set in a at least weird perspective where from the one hand we see a murder that shouldn't take place, in the other hand we see a portrayal of a man that rebelled and shaped a new reality of a crime- terror, in the end shaking whole state with very media-popular letters that the notority just spreaded his outlaw legend, just like earlier role model of John Dillinger. In the movie we can even see how the media and gov. authorities allowed a live tv session interview with the supposed zodiac. It is pretty much a perfect movie to watch on a balcony or backyard in a warm summer night, I tend to watch it every summer.

The Dillinger of the 60-70 portrayal is an surefire creep. But also it has the feel of a "new cool" creep. Movie does very well in delivering the ideas and feel of the bizarre reign of terror in california and the panic and paranoid chase after the terrorist which destroyed many lives and careers of that time. Now heres the part of the movie that changes perspective from a gritty violence movie turns into a movie in style of a epic story, of the strings of events that hapenned AFTER the murders, the hopeless investigation, the ruined lives and careers of the law enforcement, the frustration over missed chances and focusing on a bizzarre effect of a well performed terror campaign.


Movie shows and whats great we can actually feel how bad time shaped the rest of what was left after the official investigation, continuing obsessive paranoia around fading sheds of evidence, just like an really bad scar that hardly stopped bleeding. Thats what this movie is about, the scar on the system that have failed and the scar on the society that bleeded both emotionally and physically. But not on the official streams, movie focuses on the backdoor, the kitchen of whats going on around in the neigborhood.

If you like it, check the blu ray version ! Get all the smallest details from this movie, because it is one of the rare movies today that were filmed in Viper cameras by a real professional ! (sorry michael mann, your camera work sucks)

Wedding music ideas

Well it has been a busy week for me and I apologize if this post will be left unfinished, don't worry, I will just add up new music each day.

So don't know how about you, but mine experiences with weddings and music were terrible. I pretty much always ended up as a wall-flower or the music was just poorly and cheaply chosen. Well lets start with that you might want a wedding music, not death metal music, not r&b music (sorry beyonce/keys, don't care how much money you spend on self promotion) neither cheap party music.

Lets start with the idea that it has to be classic, it has to be catchy and it needs to have the right feel to it. And it needs to have a party-romance feel, offspring songs like want you bad are perfect for that, they have lots of songs like that. Lets add some of them up, here ya go :



nice one, despite not having the romance theme to it, it brings the great warm relaxing mood. But the overall factor is that it will make it very memorable.



this for example has a great romantic theme to it. Well like I said, the goal is to make it the way everyone, including your parter will remember it just like the first time they had sex listening to it.



despite some controversy in language, you can freely play it in no-english-persons weddings, noone will notice.



other than offspring, queen has also the great vocal-sync which is a perfect band for every kind of celebrations.



belinda is a great pick for such music. Has the right celebrating/ecstasy mood and you can easily pick her other songs.



this is a perfect example. It is the kind of a classic tune you always feel like you heard long time before. Perfect to bring it up. Has everything -classic/romantic/celebrating themes to it. Originally made by gary glitter, but he looks so creepy that I finally decided to pick the much more charismatic Joan.



play this song and you wife will fall in love with you FOREVER. Whoever she was, back then she probably loved this song. This is really a big winner in this list. Probably number one if it was a ranking. It will make your wedding glam, modern, sexy... everything you always wanted. If you were a fan of guns n roses you might try their other tracks :



great for albumbook dvd promo hah.



well this one is a true classic, can't argue with that chicks love this song, even Celine Dion singed it.



Hard to get a crowd that will get wild to it, but its one of those tracks that really should have their place during moments like this.



we really got into slow dance songs, its really easy to pick slow dance songs



and the king of kings of slow dance songs. Well this is a song that probably fits even more into deep love moment/20 year old marriage song, but it gives a very powerful vibe, perfect for wild marriages like those you could see in the deer hunter.



This is an always-win song. You can't play it and fail with it.



Do you remember my name is earl episode where Joy wanted to dance to this song ? It is one of the biggest winners in the celebration theme here.



boy this song sounds very old, but its not about that, just like queen and offspring has a great vocals with very celebrating theme.



well despite the very heavy parts of this song, the main vocal part is fantastic and very unique just like we want it to in this ranking.



Dont bother with rock around the clock if you want unique wedding that everyone will want to remember to the rest of their life- pick runaround sue



Despite being a little too much celebratory, it will do just fine



All good to bring a good mood to the event, if you end up with this and a death metal record, play this



Now I'd like to emphasize that this is the kind of a song like I mentioned with the track by Joan Jett, it gives out the glam and celebratory part of the event and also comes up with the romantic theme.



Now thats what I call the deer hunter vibe, nostalgic, totally wild and made for getting smashed in the process. Only for some people, use with caution hah

You see you need to check which part of the mood you want to expand, some will prefer much more of a glam themes like anything for love, while some other will enjoy much more the deer hunter vibe tracks like loveshack or other.

Top legendary adventure movie songs from the eighties

Welcome again to my little blog. Today we're gonna discuss some of the best songs that are long forgotten today, but give me all that pleasant memories of sunny youth. The numbers aren't about who's first. Just numbers for... enumeration.

1. Jerry Reed and the theme from Smokey and the bandit. Today even I don't find that movie so amusing itself, but it just took 20 nostalgic seconds in one of the final scenes of my name is earl episodes where Earl gives a chance to Randy to be the bandit, the song goes in and they ride off with the pontiac trans am to the sunset. Incredible piece of tv filmmaking and even more incredible piece of music



2. Lindsay Buckingham Holiday Road. This is a big one. This is a hit that threw Chevy Chase and the Griswald family into top cult comedies of the eighties. Chase became a celebrity, and there is no woman that won't dance to this song. Unless she's paralysed. Legendary disco-pop that now deserves place in every digital albumbook on youtube. Never go on holiday without it !



3. Sammy Hagar Heavy metal music. This is the track that threw the violence-erotica themes of classic comic book series into the mainstream. I think this movie and song started the violence-pop era of die hard and all of those action-adventure movies where killing and violence is entertainment and when the kill-show is over during the credits you hear relaxing and energizing rock hit on the way out of cinema. This song is a great compliment to the era of vixens, sadomasochism erotics of heavy metal comic books and unforgettable, iconic trailer. Should be played during football matches or nascar crashes.



4.Cindy Lauper Good Enough. This is one of those adventure titles like all the rest, you hear it once, you'll remember that pleasant time to the rest of your life. And I know I can listen to those songs all my life. One of the songs that is played in adventure movies where 1-2 people is running away from around 50-100.



5.Chuck Berry Johnny Be Goode. Well this is not an eighties song but I guess early fifties. But it got into mainstream when Michael J. Fox played it in legendary first part of Back to the Future... and kicked the AMP! This is the song that created Rock n Roll which is very nicely portrayed in the movie that actually it was Marty Mcfly who created rock n roll.



6. Elvis Presley Jailhouse Rock. Well of course this is not an eighties song. But thanks to nostalgic blues brothers the song got into an adventure movie with angry sounding american cars chasing and crashing each other. One of the greatest car chases in cinema, suprise that people don't rank it that well as back then.



7.Kenny Loggins Footloose. Created in the era when almost everyone could watch musicals and not feel ashamed of himself. Another next to Good Enough songs that radio stations still play, best either to dance on the bar table in a pub or to play in a scene where large group of people chase 1 or 2. Really cool and you really should try dance on the table sometime along time ago in an irish pub far away.



8.Queen One Vision. In the era of glam jet dogfights and hot dates this movie went on with a wave of promoting this whole youth fascination of jets and dogfights, so they made a teen movie, which had this classic song that everyone that watched it still remember. Actually this movie promoted the idea of listening to typical eighties rock while flying jets, smashing cars and that stuff. Highly recommended track.



9.The pirate movie theme song. Well Eroll Flynn rolls in his grave of jealousy that his movies didn't have such a staggering pirate theme which probably is the best pirate movie theme in history. Track got so popular in some places that they even play it during naval academy celebrations. Is that creepy or hilarious ? Guess a little bit of both.
