audition

Nearly a year ago, well, November 1st 2002 it was, I went on a small trip. Bryan and I decided to go for a weekend to visit our wonderful friend of Fazed fame, Adam in Kansas City. Adam had these 2 friends that were a couple. I had already met the female of the two, Victoria previously when I'd ridden my first and might I also say my last set of roller coasters on a previous KC trip. This trip we were to meet the completor of the couple, Alex.

We arrived safely. We ate at Jose Peppers, we all became acquainted, we went back to Alex and Victoria's place. I was forced to play Magic the Gathering for also what was the first and last time. I kicked ass every time. Then Bryan and I sat out to let the real players play.

Alex put a movie on for us that he thought we should see. It was 100 minutes of boring slow building Japanese cinema. It was also 15 minutes of chilling horror that I will never forget and purge from my mind. I lost all control of emotion to a point where I was uncontrollably laughing at the most horrid site I've ever seen at that point. [Note: this past week's CSI where there was an arm lodged in a meat grinder made me gag and dry heave for a few, almost taking over in horridness] I will never look at piano wire the same way again.

I bought this movie tonight at Best Buy. Audition by Takashi Miike the Unrated Director's Cut, only $19.99. What the hell was I thinking?

I haven't yet bought it, but that movie haunts me. I think I do need to own it, though. Just because.
