That's Exploitainment

Exploitainment...what a wonderful term. I had never heard that before today. I was browsing the Skepdic.com site (The Skeptic's Dictionary) for terms related to parapsychology for a haunted house story I'm writing when I stumbled upon this wonderful term...EXPLOITAINMENT!!!!! My new favorite word. It would make P.T. Barnum proud. I think I'll go home tonight and watch some EXPLOITAINMENT!

Speaking of EXPLOITANMENT!...I must really bring up the touchy subject of "Against The Dark"...the new Steven Seagal movie that supposedly pits him against "vampires"...well I have tried to sit through this movie twice now and it's only coming in baby steps...not enough puffy, old, bloated Seagal for my taste...I mean really...he should be on screen in every scene...but no....our portly, pony tailed hero just randomly pops in and out every ten minutes to wave a fucking sword around...and these vampires seem an awful lot like zombies to me...I am more than a little disappointed and thankfully, because I had been forewarned about this movie, threw another Seagal onto the Netflix barbie, the very promising (which in my world translates as : hopefully extremely retarded) "Kill Switch". Now that promises some serious EXPLOITAINMENT! I will give a full diagnosis of "Against The Dark" once I can stomach watching the entire piece of shit in one sitting....but the prognosis is not looking good for Steven and his blood-sucking (or rather cock-sucking) friends, the vampires who are actually zombies. I cannot tell you how shattered I am that this movie was not all I had hoped it would be. Where is the justice in the universe?

No, you must watch! If only to save mankind!

hahahahaha - I already removed it from my queue, however I will add it back [for mankind and all] :-)

You reminded me of my 8-year-old daughter, who likes to be woken up when I wake up - the other day, she left a note stating "wake me up early for the sake of the universe!" :-)
