Learning The Ropes - Casey Matthews/Rosalita Sanchez, Kate Riley/Rhonda LeBeck

A/N: Day 22 of @yeehawgust and we're getting some more @thetremorssaga up in here.

Kate Riley and Rhonda LeBeck had been working with Casey Matthews ever since she moved to Perfection, so when Casey asked if they minded her bringing in a friend to ‘learn the ropes’ with them, they had agreed easily. Now, with Rosalita listening and learning every day, Kate found herself smirking as she joined Rhonda at the tent edge with a fresh can of cola from the cooler they had brought with them. “She seems happy…” “Young love.” Rhonda murmurs, leaning closer. “She’s a quick learner too…. Look at her.” Rosalita is coated in a fairly thick coat of dust and grime, mostly sand, smiling as she helps Casey settle the last of their set up of wires and sensors. They’d worked around El Blanco, selecting a safe area of land just outside Burt’s land, a place they all knew El Blanco ignored. Learning the ropes had lead to Rosalita lending them a hand and, much as neither Kate or Rhonda would ask, charming Casey into loving her all the more.

Okay, the more I think about it, I think the main reason why I wasn’t that impressed with “Alien Romulus” was how safe it felt. It didn’t hurt the franchise, but I felt like I could live without it. It doesn’t really add anything to the Alien series, apart from Xeno-Baby. Also, it felt like Fede Alvarez just redid the first movie but with better special effects. That’s technically not a bad thing, but I was definitely thinking to myself in the theater that the movie felt lacking in substance.

And sure, the scares may be well done, but it’s also nothing new. I’m pretty sure I’ve seen the, “We have to stay quiet or else the monsters will hear us” shtick in like 10 other horror movies. Also, lowering the temperature so that the monsters can’t see you is straight up Tremors 2. Once again, just because it’s cliched doesn’t mean it’s bad. But it does make you feel like you’ve seen this shit already.

If I had to make a comparison to a similar series, it’s the “Predators” (2010) of the Alien franchise. Not bad, not great, doesn’t really add much to the series…it’s just very safe and passable.

(EDIT: I take back what I said about Xeno-Baby. Even that’s not new since that’s just the Newborn from Alien Resurrection)

Poll: Which Creature Are You Booping?

That Halloween BOOpfest was quite fun and I hope everyone got the badges they wanted. But... assuming you had the option and were willing to risk it all...

Taro: I ask you, is this a job for an intelligent man?

Tregear: I dunno. Show me one and I'll ask him.

Rediscovered my love for tremors today after stumbling apon the forgotten TV show that took place after the third movie, I love tremors and I was saddened to learn about two years ago they had plans for a new TV series but it was cancelled by the SYFI channel the day before airing. And after the shrieker island movie burt gummer the character died in the movie because the actor was getting too old to play burt so he had his character go out like a badass.

Dust Devil Drama - Rosalita Sanchez/Casey Matthews

A/N: Day 23 of @yeehawgust and we have some more @thetremorssaga for you.

“What the f….” “Dust Devil, get inside.” Rosalita’s still not sure what makes her like Casey so much but she can’t help feeling a little protective of the other woman, tugging her inside the barn and shutting the door firmly before locking it and blocking it completely up. “This is going to suck…” Casey sighs and follows Rosalita to the nearest hay bales, happy enough to sit by Rosalita’s side even as the dust devil blows past, rattling the doors sharply enough that Casey can’t help sinking a little closer to Rosalita, nervous instantly. The door nearest them, thankfully, holds. The other door shudders and, when the dust devil leaves, falls completely. “That was… close.”

Watching twilight for the first time ever and God damn they had the makings of a killer werewolf vampire Eifle Tower. Could have made her the most filled and fulfilled girl in Washington.
