We just watched this 2010 movie called Monsters, made by a British fellow who created an eerie, fantastic film using off the shelf software and a ridiculously small budget by the standards of most such films. I wasn't sure what to expect of it but I have to say I really enjoyed watching. This is one of those films where silence is even more terrifying than sound.

Gigantic things terrify me. I'm not sure where this come from ultimately. I can remember a vivid nightmare from my childhood about the stone Easter Island heads lumbering around inside my grandmother's home and hiding under a shelf on the floor. Tall buildings sometimes frighten me, looming with such immense presence. Maybe I watched too many radioactive monster movies as a kid, I don't know.

I need to finish this story I'm muddling through, and bake some brownies for Mike to take to the office.

I haven't yet but it's in my Netflix queue--I've yet to hear anyone say a bad thing about it.
