"Carrie" is a 1974 horror novel written by Stephen King about a girl with telekinetic powers who goes on a rampage and brutally murders everyone in her high school.
Graduating high school and moving on to college has started a whirlwind of questions about life and time that are beginning to consume me. My fear of growing old and becoming an adult is ultimately driven by a fear of death. And for once, I know I am not alone. It is a natural human instinct to fear death and wonder about "the great beyond." Most people are naturally, even subconsciously, afraid of change; and death is the biggest change of all.
Some people love antique furniture and houses because of their beautiful, ornate designs. If someone were to compare a bookshelf from 1923 with one from today, the bookshelf today would look boring and cheap. Unfortunately, furniture is not the only thing facing a downgrade.
Every year, Christmas merchandise seems to hit the shelves earlier and earlier. For some homes, Christmas decorating begins as soon as the kids go out trick-or-treating on Halloween. Although it may seem like a harmless festivity, buyers should be conscious of what this waste and desire for excess means for the planet.
I always appreciate someone with a variety of interests. Specifically, someone who likes root beer, reading "War and Peace," collecting art, writing, and even pretending to be a World War I fighter pilot. Somehow, there seems to be only one character who has all these qualities. And that character is the beloved, talented, adventurous beagle named Snoopy.
As a music history buff, it's hard to find a movie that accurately depicts the culture of the '60s or '70s. Even "Almost Famous," one of my favorite movies of all time, has timeline issues that are hard to miss (e.g. the mention of Joni Mitchell's album, "Blue," which would not be released until three years after the movie takes place). The only movie that is entirely devoted to accurately representing the '70s, mainly through its soundtrack, is "Dazed and Confused."
Men have dominated rock 'n' roll in the music industry since the beginning of the genre. Jack White pointed out in a 2014 interview that female musicians are often viewed as little girls playing dress-up and pretending to play instruments. Even famous, accomplished women like Stevie Nicks faced sexism throughout their careers (see this clip from 1977 of a sexist interviewer).
Classic rock listeners are often drawn to the nostalgic, distinguishable sound of rock from before the digital age. Rock 'n' roll 50 years ago was dirty, passionate and most of all, loud. Now, it seems as though that sound is impossible to recreate due to the changes in production technology.
The leaves are falling, and everything I have been eating is covered in a layer of cinnamon, which means it's time to pull out the Halloween movie bucket list. Even though some people may be tempted to watch "Gremlins" this Halloween season, I urge you to patiently wait until Christmas to see those cute little mogwais. But be not afraid, I have the perfect movie to take its place.
