I had a dream...

[Mofo Rising]

Let's see, last disturbing dream I had. . .

I had just left a house where I had maybe just killed an entire family.  (The maybe is the truly disturbing bit.)  I ran out into the streets of suburbia, hallucinating like I had just taken some very, very bad acid.  I remember turning around and seeing a disembodied face flashing behind me.  It was very much like those weird horror mangas you find in disreputable comic shops.

I don't usually have bad dreams though.  They usually have a very cinematic quality, with actual plots and everything.  Oftentimes the dream will be me actually watching a movie or reading a book.  My brother tells me that when I was a kid, he'd often see me sleeping with my hands up like I was actually holding a book.

What bugs me is when I'm caught up in the story and then abruptly awakened.  The realization that it was just a dream, and now I'll never know how things turn out gets me every time.

Abby writes "I think all we had were Cameras and knives we pulled out of bodys" .....would you use a camera pulled out of a body? Have to clean the lens first, with ammonia, then hope the good diden't ruin the film....assuming the camera did't have a motorised shutter, then all you'd see are flash pictures of someones inside when in the process of shutting down.....bummer.

Fulci et al would have used those flash pictures as part of one of their movies: "shot on location in some poor sap's guts".
