I HAVE A RECURRING DAYDREAM

I have recurring daydreams. I find myself daydreaming all the time, I have several favorites that I like to visit and I decided to try to bring one of those characters to the surface. I've always liked the idea of a brutal killer, a tortured wreck and a punisher who has an unbelievable affection towards victims. He's not a good person but he connects at times with the scared and hopeless who have no one protecting them from bullies. He hates bullies, he bullies them and as far as he's concerned he's the only one allowed to be a bully because he's the best at it anyway. I don't want to blurt out too much about him, I am just going to try writing him. Just force him out of my head on onto this blog. Here's Cockroach. He'll look cooler if someone who can actually draw took a crack at him. Anyone? It would really help me out.



A man in a torn up and tattered black ski mask is lying on the floor staring into the eyes of a woman who is in the last moments of her life. She's trying to speak, she looks sad and is trying to speak her last words. The man speaks.

"Do you know who I am?"

The woman nods her head in recognition.

"Then you know you don't have to worry about those men anymore."

The women tries to move and lets out a whimper.

"Don't try to move, it just makes it worse."

Tears trickle down her face.

"Don't be scared. I've been where you are hundred times. Don't be scared of dying.
Does it hurt?"

She whimpers yes.

"That goes away soon. I want you to close your eyes"

She whimpers no, she's scared and her eyes are getting glassy.

"I am sorry I didn't get here sooner. Sometimes bad things have to happen first for me to find the bad guys"

She's fading, she smiles.

"It doesn't hurt now does it? Good Sweety. You'll like this part, everything slows down now, you can step outside yourself. It feels like the first time you've ever really been conscious. You're seeing the people you love aren't you? "

 She smiles, she cries.

"Keep thinking about them, let that feeling of calm come over you. That's always my favorite part"

She starts to finally fade.

"I promise I'll torture those men for you"

She smiles. She dies.

The Punisher - Dirty Laundry


My posts are getting really Marvel-y but here's another link for you. It's a Punisher short movie that just came out made by the same lead actor as in the feature film (Thomas Jane).

I love it, it's perfect aside from the fact that JD's isn't flammable and the bottle it's made from isn't shatter proof. It's such a simple little story that has a beginning, a middle, a build up and a satisfying conclusion. They really manage to amp up the tension in a 10 minute short, not easy to do. The soundtrack makes the whole thing.

Let's make a new Punisher movie that's has more of this and less of John Travolta, who I assume was awful as the main bad guy in the first one, I never saw it.

Here's my page...

Alright people, partner up. We're going to go over some of the basic first aid procedures for zombie bites.

The recruits all partner up, the creepy recruit partners up with someone (with Recruit #3), .

Ervin
Ok, step one: protect yourself. Everyone put on the pair of rubber gloves that you'll all carry on you at all times. Do not let your skin have any contact with the infected area.

The recruits put on their gloves, the creepy recruit is looking worse. He's still going unnoticed for the most part. He's looking angrier and angrier, focused on the unsuspecting Recruit #3 who he's partnered up with.

Ervin
Now listen to me, step two is to get the infected party restrained quickly with your restraint cords. You don't know how long it will take them before they become a threat to you. A good way to check is to look at the person's eyes, if you see a slight hue of red starting to set in then you have at max 2 minutes to get them locked up and tagged for collection.

The recruits are all handed restraints to practice with. Recruit #3 is goofy and enthusiastic. He looks at his partner and sees crimson red eyes.

Recruit #3
Ummm...Mr. Johnson?

Randall inspects the zombie's mouth, he notices a drop of fresh blood roll down her chin.

RANDALL
Ervin, we might have a problem here.
The Creepy Recruit BURSTS forward onto his partner (Recruit #3), he's violent.



Bashing at him with his fists like a rampaging ape, his violence is primal. He tears into his arm with his teeth, the commotion causes everyone to jump back. In the confusion they back up into Randall and Rooney and fall over, the chained zombie is released accidentally and immediately starts attacking and biting people. The room is in total chaos.

Ervin's eyes dart across the room as violence erupts around him.
