Halloween's upon us again, and a cable show last night had the 15 scariest horror movie moments to set the mood. I don't watch those blood and guts movies myself.
But I have seen "Alien" which had some hair raising moments, but to me the best frightful movie of recent times, is "Bram Stoker's Dracula," starring Gary Oldman, Sir Anthony Hopkins and Winona Ryder. I like that one though it's deliciously repulsive.
Let me tell you something else repulsive I saw on TV Thursday night. I must be the only person in this mybloggers group of bloggers who watches Project Runway. The show starts off with 15 designers brought together at the Parson's School of Design and every week they are given the task to design an outfit, buy the fabric and sew whatever the challenge is that week. Every week the worst designer is kissed off the show by model Heidi Klum, the hostess.
I know I'm way out of the loop of what is fashionable, but Heidi and the other two judges on the panel have gone gaga over some of the ugliest clothes imaginable. Thursday was the finale, with each of the three finalist showing their collection on the runway at Mercedes Benz fashion week. One finalist, Mondo, had disclosed halfway through the competition he was HIV positive which gave him some sympathy votes. Another finalist was from Hawaii, a nice guy with acne scars and a long black ponytail.
The last finalist was Gretchen Jones, a back stabbing back biting woman the other contestants called a bitch and a fake. Her collection was drab, looked like clothes from a hippie commune of the 70's, plus outfits of models wearing PANTIES AND WEDGIE SHOES. Panties right out in public with different little tops. The judges who have mush for brains voted her the best designer, saying she had her finger on the pulse of fashion forward looks. It looked like what hookers on streetcorners would wear. It's ridiculous to think regular people would be caught dead in that stuff. Her collection was the scariest most repulsive thing I've seen this Halloween.
I yearn for Coco Chanel--there was a designer!

My Aunt was once out with her granddaughter at the beach and remarked to her GG, "I forgot to bring my thongs" meaning her flip flops. Her granddaughter nearly passed out at the shock, thinking that her 280 pound grandmother was going to sport a thong.
