HORROR BARBECUE

It's funny how today for Halloween people wear the craziest costumes and make up to appear scary, yet back in the day someone can just put on some sheets look like a mixture of the KKK and a ghost and really scare a motherfucker. 

Simple, Yet

Scary.

Posion hooch has killed 66 people in the last five years in Vietnam and affected another 183 people in a total of 196 cases, Tuoi Tre newspaper reported Thursday.

Ho Chi Minh City and the Central Highlands province of Gia Lai together accounted for almost a third of the cases, it said quoting a report by the Vietnam Food Administration.

Most of the deaths were caused by ruou de (glutinous and non-glutinous rice wines) with high methanol content and rice wine made using poisonous herbs, the report said.

Vietnam has 328 units, including family-run ones, producing a total of 360 million liters of rice wine a year, it said.

The kids watch the opening of Thing From Another World, The (1951) on TV. Carpenter would later re-make this film himself in 1982 as Thing, The (1982).

Halloween was shot in 21 days in the spring of 1978. Made on a budget of $300,000, it became the highest-grossing independent movie ever made at that time.

According to screenwriter/producer Debra Hill, the character of Laurie Strode was named after John Carpenter's first girlfriend.

Inside Laurie's bedroom there is a poster of a painting by James Ensor (1860-1949). Ensor was a Belgian expressionist painter who used to portray human figures wearing grotesque masks.

Halloween takes place primarily in fictional Haddonfield, Illinois. Haddonfield, NJ is the home town of screenwriter Debra Hill.

The performance of Halloween's musical score is credited to "The Bowling Green Philharmonic." There is no Philharmonic in Bowling Green. The "orchestra" is actually John Carpenter and assorted musical friends.

HALLOCHEAP

Since the movie was actualy shot in spring, the crew had to buy paper leaves from a decorator and paint them in the desired autumn colors, then scatter them in the filming locations. To save money, after a scene was filmed, the leaves were collected and reused.

Due to its shoestring budget, the prop department had to use the cheapest mask that they could find in the costume store: a William Shatner mask, from the movie "The Devil's Rain." They later spray-painted the face white, teased out the hair, and reshaped the eyeholes

cool facts and it shows you don't need a big budget to make a horror classic.

“It was wrong. I screwed up,” Matt Schaeffer, president of Wilcoxson’s Livingston Ice Cream, was quoted as saying by NBC News. “I don't want to be the one who took down a 100-year old company because I made a stupid comment. If necessary, I will resign.”

The row started after a Muslim customer asked about the company’s cookies and cream-flavored ice cream containing gelatin.“Does it contain pork? I am a Muslim and love your ice cream and when I read it today I was shocked,” the customer wrote on Wilcoxson’s Facebook page.

“I look forward to you writing me back. Thank you. If possible, if it does have pork gelatin please tell me what flavors do so I can avoid them thanks again.”

Relying to the question, Schaeffer wrote “We don’t deliver outside of Montana, certainly not Pakistan.”The Muslim customer replied that the comment was “rude” for assuming he lived in Pakistan. “What are u talking about!!??? I think. ur comment is rude to assume I live in Pakistan,” the customer wrote.

“Just because of your ignorance, I won’t buy your ice cream and definitely won’t recommend it.”Justifying his comment, Schaeffer argued that he was tired and did not see the customer’s address.“There was a map on his Facebook page with a map of Pakistan, with a balloon in the center,” Schaeffer said.

"I hope this doesn't harm Obama, but if I was from the United States, I'd vote for Obama," the socialist Chavez said of a man he first reached out to in 2009 but to whom he has since generally been insulting.

Chavez is running for a new six-year term against opposition challenger Henrique Capriles, while Obama seeks re-election in November against Republican candidate Mitt Romney. Venezuela's election is next weekend.

"Obama is a good guy ... I think that if Obama was from Barlovento or some Caracas neighbourhood, he'd vote for Chavez," the president told state TV, referring to a poor coastal town known for the African roots of its population.

Chavez is one of the world's most strident critics of Washington and his 14 years in office have been characterized by diplomatic spats and insults at the White House.

He called former U.S. President George W. Bush a "drunk" and the "devil." After an initial overture to Obama came to nothing, he said the new president had disappointed progressives the world over and was the "shame" of Africans.
