Downton Abbey

Friday evening came and went.. A whole bottle of red, was consumed while watching the first episodes of Downton Abbey. I was told I'd probably like this serie, that person was totally right! I love the English costume drama series and movies. I think the english are just brilliant in this genre. Everything is so well made and thought through, down to the smallest details.. And I'm such a sucker for anything old, I love drooling over all the wonderful clothes and surroundings.

My first impression of Downton Abbey is really good. Great cast, wonderful costumes and settings, plot is good, lovely characters, not boring. I already have a few favourite characters. Love it! Will probably see some more episodes of it tonight. Wondering what's going to happend next.. That's ususally a good sign.

Best of all, it's been aired for a while. So I have 5 whole seasons to indulge in, with a season 6 coming up! I might be the last person on the planet watching this serie, as I've heard of it for a while now. I don't know why I haven't checked it out before now. How ever, if you haven't seen it yet and like english costume dramas, I really reccommend this serie. It's so well made and the plot is good, so far. Give it a go!

Scary Mary's Dazzling Undead Dude Poll

A poll for the scary guys out there.. Give a vote to your favourite undead dudes or monsters!! The list grew totally outta proportion when I was working with it and I know I would have problems with only choosing one favourite myself. I also know they're not all entirely undead, but what the heck! I think they're monsterous enough, so I didn't have the heart to leave them out;) Solution to the "problem";  I enabled multiple answers! I've tried to flavour it up with one for every taste, but if there's someone special that I forgot.. Leave me a scream and I'll add him too! Polls close at the end of the month, 30.11. Till then, enjoy some photos of the dazzling undead dudes;)

The Walking Dead

A show based on the popular comic book series by Robert Kirkman. And of course, it had it's premier on Halloween! The story is about the officer Rick Grimes, from a small town in Georgia. He wakes up on the hospital, after being gunned down in the line of duty.. The flowers next to his bed is dead, there's no nurses to ring on.. As he makes his way out of the hospital bed and out to the corridor, a scene of total chaos, blood trails, dead , severed bodies and signs of battle meets him.. Soon he find himself in a world which has been turned upside down and into a living nightmare! The town people has been turned into Zombies, with only one thing on their mind.. Human flesh! Just to make the nightmare complete, he makes his way home, where he find his home empty and abandoned. There's no signs of his family. He ventures out to try to find his wife and boy, into the hostile new world which lays ahead...

I finally got to see the first episode of The Walking Dead this week, a few days later than the premier.. It was well worth the wait, it didn't disappoint and lived up to my expectations! It really kept me on edge the whole time and soon found myself hiding behind my fingers, screaming up and telling Rick to walk the other way and so on.. A bit engaged I guess you can say;) Hahha Now I can't wait for the rest to come! When I spotted a review and the trailer of it on IMDb, a few weeks before Halloween, I knew I had to see it. Just enough gore and zombies to make a great show;) Hopefully the rest of the episodes is as good as the first one...
