About Me

My Photo
I am a short story writer hoping to gain inspiration from the greatest films of all-time. I am also seeking motivation to watch these films, many of which I’ve put off seeing for years. I like to think I have achieved both of these goals, at least to a degree. I’m not a movie critic, though I do let an opinion slip out on occasion. I’m just trying to write where my motivation takes me. I’ll continue with it as long as the desire remains strong. The book I am using for my main guidance is "1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die." I have the 5th edition, but there are newer editions out there.

MONSTERS (2010)


Catching up on some recent 1001 listings
(Film 5 of 12)

Monsters-Story of a photojournalist who is in charge of transporting his bosses daughter through an infected zone inhabited by alien squid-like monsters may not be for those who prefer more exotic creatures over characterization and plot, (like my wife)-but in my opinion, the plot carries this one (In other words, my wife is wrong).

  1. Agreed. This one is all about the characters in the situation rather than the situation itself. I liked it quite a bit.
