My Vague Review: MAMA
If you're going to see something scary, thrilling and beautiful... Go see MAMA.
This ghostly tale is very different from The Ring and Paranormal Activity, it's actually a strong story with a lot going on.
But enough of my ramblings, here is the vague review:
- The beginning was a great opener.
- The way MAMA was introduced was almost pretty. Her silhouette was creepy and beautiful.
- I liked that Uncle Luke and Annabel were 'different' kind of guardians of the girls.
- The creepy, animal-like movements of the girls was fascinating to watch.
- There were no real villains in the story and I liked that.
- MAMA's story was sad. She just wanted to love her children.
- The appearance of MAMA was frightening and again, beautiful.
- Her voice was creepy.
- The girls stole the show.
- You will remember MAMA's movements in the movie.
- There were great creepy moments in the movie.
- The ending was very sad, but yet, rewarding.

Teaser Trailer for God Loves Uganda
Here is the premise
While the infamous "Kill the Gays" Bill gathers domestic support, and garners international condemnation, tension in Uganda mounts and an electric atmosphere takes hold. The film reveals the conflicting motives of faith and greed, ecstasy and egotism, among Ugandan ministers, American evangelical leaders and the foot soldiers of a theology that sees Uganda as a test case, ground zero in a battle not for millions, but billions of souls.
The feature length documentary, directed by Oscar-winner Roger Ross Williams, is a powerful exploration of the evangelical campaign to change African culture with values imported from America’s Christian Right.
So What will the Next Season of American Horror Story be about?
ShockTillYouDrop.com talked with Ryan Murphy about the next installment of American Horror Story.
Here's the scoop:
Murphy told Shock director Alfonso Gomez-Rejon (who helmed many of the best Asylum episodes), "has a really great eye and we work really well together. We just did a deal for him to be a producer/director next season where he is probably going to direct every third [episode] but definitely work with the directors to work on the visual style of the show."Will you be back for another season of AHS?
"I'm done with aliens," Murphy laughed when asked about season three. "The thing I wanted to do next season was something that's funnier. I really missed that 'Jessica Lange as Constance'...that stuff and I know she missed it, too. [Next season] is a mixture of several cities and it's really about female power. And I got Jessica to do it because I did everything she asked, which was the location. I also told her she'll have complete hair and make-up and the best designer gowns ever. She's going to play a really glamor cat sort of lady. I'm just now meeting with a lot of actors that Jessica wants to work with. She loves doing the show and I think she love the thirteen-episode nature of it so she can do other things."

Girlfriend Hoax and Gay Rumors beset Football Player Manti Te'o
I'm sure some of you heard about Notre Dame's Manti Te'o.
He's the linebacker who had relationship with a girl for 3 years, then she died of leukemia.
Well, apparently it was a hoax. The girl never existed. So the media is going wild about this story; I heard about it through my students yesterday. But now the rumors have started and leading the pack are the gay rumors.
Here's more from Outsports:
We’ve seen rumors and heard stories about countless athletes in the past. But not since Troy Aikman have I been bombarded on email, text, Twitter and phone calls about the sexual orientation of any athlete the way I was today about Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te’o. The questions are in response to Deadspin’s article on Wednesday revealing that the story of the deceased girlfriend of Te’o was a complete hoax, and that Te’o (allegedly) lied about 1) knowing the woman, 2) that the woman existed and 3) having a girlfriend at all.
The article points to a Mormon football-player-turned-gospel-singer named Ronaiah Tuiasosopo, who is allegedly behind the twitter account of the artificial girlfriend, Lennay Kekua. The two men know each other and saw each other as recently as November when Notre Dame played USC. Tuiasosopo and his family were on-field guests at the game:
USC was unable to confirm this, but a tweet from Tuiasosopo’s since-deleted account suggests he and Te’o did see each other on that West Coast trip. “Great night with my bro @MTeo_5! #Heisman #574L,” Ronaiah tweeted on Nov. 23, the night before the game.
The lengths to which Tuiasosopo allegedly went to create this account are detailed in the Deadspin article and include allegedly lying to family members. And according to at least one person Deadspin spoke to, Te’o was in on it the whole time.Lord, somebody needs to clear this up or come out, because it can only get messy from here
