R.I.P. - David Carradine & Vault Turns 9 Years Old.

Aside from trying to get my life back on track lately (no easy task after all the heartaches I've suffered in the last month), I haven't had the urge to really do much with the Vault, which is sad because it has turned 9 years old on June 6, 2009! I'm hoping that I can find the strength to start updating again, but it seems I've lost my obsession with cinema....

Also I found it quite sad that David Carradine had passed away last week in a strange hanging incident. (Was it suicide? Was it a fatal attempt at auto-erotic asphyxiation? I don't really care. His death is a tragic loss regardless.) The worst part of this is how certain daily news publications have handled the story. From what I've seen, the NY Post was the worst of the bunch, boasting headlines like "HUNG FU." My condolences to Carradine's family. He will be missed.

Well check back sometime soon b-movie fans. I'm trying to get out of the funk I'm in and may actually write up some new material for the site. Don't hold your breath though, because it may be a few more weeks before I find the strength to publish a new review. In the meantime, keep the torch burning: watch b-flicks, have bad movie nights with your friends, and support the online b-movie community in any way you can! In other words, keep fighting the good fight fellow b-movie fans!

Blog ya soon!

I'm sorry to hear of your recent troubles. Hope everything turns out ok. Your site is one of the best out there and it would be a shame if you stopped updating.

Thanks for the kind words Starmummy. I haven't abandoned the Vault and am in fact doing a little work on it right now. The LINKS page has needed to be tidied up for a long time, so I'm getting that out of the way before I dig into any new reviews or anything.

As for the current status of my life... I am deeply in love with someone and hurting because I can't be with them. To put it mildly: It sucks!

I hear ya, Jordy. After that hard drive crash that wiped out everything, I've found it hard to continue on with the Graveyard. Of course, creating the Graveyard was all done to get myself writing regularly and eventually kick start my fiction writing career. With the Graveyard set aside for a while, I've been concentrating on my horror fiction, thus why I am posting this under my pseudonym (this is Tim aka Shadow if you had not guessed already). I plan to come back to the Graveyard at some point, but I don't know when that will be. I'm actually making some money writing stories about monsters and ghosts and killers, so who knows. Anyway, your web space is there as long as you need it.
