BIQ Is Back

Sorry for the lack of updates this month, fan, but during October excrement became genuine. Or, as the kids say, shit got real. I won't bore you with the gory personal details, other than to say bloggering had to take a back seat this month.

But, now, it's time to get back into the bloggering saddle and rabbit on about horror movies some more.

I should probably point out that I normally take it easy (bloggering wise) during October anyway. All my stateside contemporaries go a little nuts this time of year thanks to Halloween (aka The Festival of Gutless Pumpkins), so when they are churing out daily updates of excessive horror goodness I figure if you can't beat 'em... give up (at least until November).

Besides, Halloween isn't the only party that happens this month. The beauty of living in a country with virtually zero cultural significance is that you can pinch everyone else's traditions. Need a break from Halloween celebrations? No problem. Grab an unpractically large glass mug, fill it with German beer, guzzle away and... voila, you're celebrating Oktoberfest!

Mmmmm... Oktoberfest.

Frankly, I don't need an excuse to celebrate horror or drink rediculously large glasses of German beer, but if this month had a saving grace it was that we had one (excuse) for each of those activities this month.
