Siren X, Suicide Circle and Moon Child

It’s been a while since I’ve posted a blog or anything like that. Serious or otherwise, but that’s because I didn’t have anything to write about before. However, I am back and have some stuff that I’d like to write about. Anyway, here we go…

Recently, I watched a few movies. Siren X, Suicide Circle and Moon Child. That was the order that I watched them in, I watched Siren X and Suicide Circle one night and a day or so later watched Moon Child. Suicide Circle and Moon Child, good movies, kept me entertained. Both had their flaws and things and each had their strength. That happens in movies. Siren X, however, was all flaw. Going in I knew it probably wasn’t going to be the best movie (since it’s kind of a porn) but it was just full of “teh suck” and not the good kind. Seriously. Siren X is the worst Horror Porn I’ve ever seen. It may be the only one I’ve ever seen, but it turned me off (quite literally) from the idea of Horror Porn. And the idea sounds so promising.

Siren X started with somewhat of a horror movie feel. The characters were in a vehicle driving to an unknown location, it was the chosen place for their filming. One thing leads to another, blah, blah, blah… a mysterious woman is introduced. Things continue on as normal with the original group staying in the woman’s house out in the middle of the woods. (This reminds me how stupid people in horror movies are, I mean, really.) After a while, things between one of the main guys and the main girl (not the mystery woman) get hot and heavy, so on and so forth. The movie never really gets interesting. It never gave me chills. If anything, I chuckled at the movie once when the first guy dies. Horrible movie. If you stumble across it, don’t bother.

Suicide Circle starts out quickly. Within the first five minutes or so, 54 girls jump out in front of a train. It is an intense beginning and then slow right down but it builds back up again and leads to more suicide action. When I first heard about this movie, I did some searching and found out that it was a mindless gore fest, that’s what got me interested. While watching the movie I came to believe something entirely different. Yes, it is a bloody gore fest from beginning to end (kind of), it really isn’t mindless. At least to me it wasn’t. Typically, “mindless” movies don’t make you think… this movie got me thinking but maybe that’s because I over analyze things. I won’t go into any more detail about the movie, but I do suggest that people watch it. Even if you’re just wanting some over the top gore. But, if you want something more… watch this movie and pay attention. (If there’s nothing there in your opinion, meh, I saw more than just your average bloody gore fest.)

Moon Child is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a while. Honestly, it may not be your typical “vampire flick” but it is amazing – Kei (HYDE) & Sho (Gackt) <3. The story drew me in, made me want to continue watching, made me want to know what was going to happen next. It got to the point that when Sho cried, I cried. Like when Toshi died. Then again when Sho found out his other brother (or whatever) had been killed. Cried again. I thought I was done crying then BAM! Yi Che ended up in the hospital with a tumor and I was in tears once more. Sad shiz. But things started to look up again as Sho and Kei were reunited, going after the head of the local mob. That didn’t last long, however. Sho found Lee Hom’s character, who’s name escapes me, and an epic gun battle ensues. This leads to Lee Hom shooting Gackt. Kei shows up a few seconds too late, sees Sho lying on the ground and unleashes hell (somewhat). Beautiful revenge. This part lead me to more tears though, as Kei made his way over to Sho. Cradling him on his lap and begging him not to die. I should probably stop before I ruin the movie for anybody that reads this and wants to watch it. Anywho… I recommend this to anybody and everybody.

This is something I wrote for an online game I play called wrassle[dot]net. It’s an online text based roleplaying game in which players write about the lives of fictional wrestlers (or wrasslers, if you will)…

Mayon Naise (Pandorus Box) and his manager, Teri Yaki, sat in a small office somewhere away from people. This way nobody can post off of me and mess up whatever it is that I set up in this post. Oh yay! Anywho, there they sat as Teri read over the contract that Mayon had just signed with the CWA. It was his first step into the W[D]N and one that would not be taken lightly. The contract seemed to be the usual stuff through and through, then Teri saw the name signed at the bottom.

Teri: "You signed the contract as Pandorus Box? Really?"

Pandorus: "I thought it was funny." He said with a shrug.

Teri: "You do realize that you're more than likely going to have to wrestle under this name, right?"

Pandorus: "What?! Seriously?"

Teri: "Yes, Mayon. You're going to be stuck with this name for your entire career."

Pandorus: "But... but... other people have gone through name changes before."

Teri: "That's other people. So long as I am your manager, your name is going to be Pandorus Box."

Pandorus Box chuckles to himself, obviously nervous, for a moment before looking Teri Yaki in the eyes.

Pandorus: "And what makes you think I won't fire you right now?"

Teri: "And what good would that do you?"

Pandorus: "None." He says a sigh escapes him.

Teri leans back in her chair before flopping her legs up onto the desk. A slight smirk spread across her face, a chuckle escapes her lips before she begins to speak.

Teri: "You, a man who as of right now is unknown in appearance, are going to be wrestling under the name Pandorus Box. That is funny. Why didn't you come up with a better stage name? I mean, I get why you signed it as something other than your real name... Mayon Naise isn't exactly a fear enducing name. But neither is Pandorus Box."

Pandorus: "God, I have a feeling I am going to end up Full of Hate..."

Teri: "Hush your mouth boy, that gimmick is taken."

Pandorus: "By who?"

Teri: "GENKI."

Pandorus: "Who?"

Teri: "GENKI."

Pandorus: "Why are you yelling at me?"

Teri: "I'm not, his name is typed in all caps..."

Pandorus blinks a few times before shrugging.

Teri: "It's a puro thing."

Pandorus: "What now?"

Teri: "Puroresu..."

Pandorus: "... wha?"

Teri: "Japanese Professional Wrestling."

Pandorus: "Oh! You mean, like, with the hardcore women who I sometimes wank it to?"

Teri: "That's Joshi Puro and ew..."

Pandorus: "I see. So I'm spanking it to Joshy, that's sounds kind of gay..."

Teri: "... I would continue to explain this to you but really, I want you to be haunted by that last thought. Since, I shall be haunted by the thought of you holding..." Teri's glance shifts down a bit. "... that THING in your pants."

Pandorus: "But fine, if the Full of Hate gimmick is taken... I'll be the... Extreme Daredevil?"

Teri: "Taken."

Pandorus: "80's Kid? Kawaii Kid? RVD with one eye?"

Teri: "Taken. Taken, and taken."

Pandorus: "Who knew choosing a gimmick\nickname would be so difficult?" Pandorus says with a sigh. "I'm guessing this one is probably taken too, but I might as well say it. The Antichrist Superstar?"

Teri: "Did you even pay attention to this business at all before deciding to join it?"

Pandorus: "Yeah, why?"

Teri: "Because that's only the nickname of one of the biggest names in the business... Johnny Rude."

Pandorus: "Johnny who?"

Teri: "The One."

Pandorus: "I thought that was Matt McDervish?"

Teri: "Johnny Rude was The One prior to Matt McDervish."

Pandorus: "Ohhh... so he's not important anymore."

Teri: "No, he's still important."

Pandorus: "Not really. I mean, that would be like saying that Hank Hooligan is still important..."

Teri: "How are those two even close to the same? I mean, Hank Hooligan never won the One World Championship."

Pandorus: "Yeah, but..."

Teri: "But nothing you idiot. Hank Hooligan and Johnny Rude are NOT even close to comparable."

Pandorus: "You're right, Johnny Rude isn't good enough to lick the gum that's possibly stuck on the bottom of Hank Hooligan's shoe. Glad you straightened me out."

Teri shakes her head and lets out a sigh.
