Movie Reviews: "Organizm" Sci Fi Horror Films

Cover of Organizm

This movie's fairly recent, 2008, and is probably a B+ film, but I found it quite entertaining actually. In fact, I was  on the edge of my seat at times... there were moments when it was even AWESOME (like when they find the tank and also the opening scene with the bullet that pierces both the BLANK and the BLANK)! Gruesome.

And don't miss the BLOOD scene. OMG. You'll know what I'm talking about when you get there. But, really, did we need to see her breasts? Plus... the closing sequence is delightfully grotesque. All in all it was a bit cliche but still a whole lotta fun.

The lead character (the talented Johnathon Schaech as Frank Sears) is a look-a-like for Peter Gallagher (from one of my favorite films of all time: "Summer Lovers"). For Peter Gallagher images CLICK HERE.

I haven't talked about it in a while. So I just wanted to mention that, although Sci Fi/Horror Movie Reviews and fitness may seem a world apart. They're actually not. It was upon my PTSD counselor's prodding that I began watching horror films. I had been avoiding them... anything scary at all. But she insisted that it would be good for my mental health, as "desensitization" therapy.

And indeed it has been. I am less easily startled and have fewer "trigger words" (particular words that would set off a panic attack/episode). I have become desensitized with the added bonus of discovering that I really enjoy this genre for its entertainment value.

Movie Review "Helen" with Ashley Judd Depressive Disorder Depression Sadness

Cover of Ashley JuddA movie about the realities of Depressive Disorder (aka having a Nervous Breakdown)... a very real Dis-ease. The hardships, the struggles. If you have experienced it you will understand. If not, this film will give you a hint at the uncontrollable feelings and urges.

My husband said, "Why would anyone want to see that? It's so depressing." (long pause) People who have not experienced it, just don't get it.

Just as in the movie he said, "She just needs to get out and get some exercise." If only it were that easy.

I found it both enlightening and, in the end, encouraging.



I was diagnosed with  Depression for two years after not being able to save a friend (through CPR) from dying under my watch. But the reasons are many. Who knows. Some may be subconscious. Some (if you believe in it could even be from Past Life experiences) if you believe in that sort of thing.

In any case, this movie gives a good depiction.

SPOILER:  Instead of Prozac she gets Prozapped. 

Available now on  Netflix Instant View.

VIDEO You're the BEST Nothing's Gonna Keep You Down

YOU'RE THE BEST Nothing's Ever Gonna Keep You Down:

Joe Esposito's 'You're The Best' from Karate Kid soundtrack.

On a personal note:
I'm really needing this video right now. I recently got a "great job". But it's a BAD schedule, one that is keeping me from my yoga and martial arts classes. I've applied for going part-time (which is an opening I should have waited for in the first place). But these days you don't turn down job offers, especially after months without work. My thought was 'If I could just get my foot in the door'. So now I'm receiving a paycheck but I'm depressed. I guess I have no choice but to be patient.


Frankly, I'd rather be drawing caricatures (funny faces) for tourists in paradise.
