January has come and went and it's interesting to note, I have reviewed more this month than many other months in the past few years. I even gave you guys a triple feature over the weekend, subjecting myself to some horror film. I hated it, you hated it, or liked it, I never really know.
Business
Before I give you a recap of links, I wanted to let you guys know a few things talk about somethings and just well, ramble. First and foremost, the ads are bother me personally. Over the weekend I spotted some ads on this site that I didn't like. I don't like the "russian brides" ad that keeps running. I also am not liking the ads that are being displayed that are just download links, I hate them.
Why have Ads? The reason that I have advertisements on my site is because I have no job, and I have to pay my student loans. I owe 40,000 dollars in student loans, and my degree hasn't really helped me in the city that I live in. In fact, it's been 17 months or so that I haven't had a job nor any income other than the ads that I get paid for on this website.
Yes, I know, I'm selling out for cheap, but what should I do? Let's talk about how much money I make from scary film review.
This month I've made $5. Thank you for that one person that bought DVD's with the links. I DO NOT REVIEW horror for the money, let's get that straight. I started this site when I had a good job and didn't need money so I never had ads in the way I have now, because I didn't need the money. Now I need the money so there's ads and more links.
What should I Do going forward? Should I stop? Do you readers care? Seriously, do you actually care? Should I stop? Does it get in the way? PLEASE LET ME KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS
Comments. For any ladies out there that can't stand commenting, I'm sorry. For all you dudes that don't comment because I don't know, don't comment, COMMENT DAMN IT! Ok, i'm sorry, i just get lonely in the horror world.
You can also send me emails, dirty and non dirty, recommendations, anything at sirjorge at gmail dot com. I really would like to make any of you readers friends, and I am on aol instant messenger so send me your aim name and we can chat, nothing crazy, but I have time on my hands, and watch more horror than I can shake a stick at.
LEAGUE OF TEA DRINKERS & OTHER HORROR SOCIETIES
I don't know what I need to do to get your attention, but I've posted 500+ reviews and get NO love from the horror community. I can't get guest bloggers in, I can't get comments, I can't get screeners, I can't seem to do anything right in the eyes of the horror fans out there. I leave comments on horror blogs and NOTHING! No Love. Is the whole internet world of horror that miopic? Am I the most hated man in horror blogging?
Maybe I just am not as good as I think. I swear, I never said i was anything, so how can anyone expect me to be?
February Preview
I thought about doing a Black Horror Month since it is Black History month and I love Blaxploitation and Urban Horror. But I don't know if I could get enough of those movies to fill a full month. I'll be reviewing Children of The Corn for sure, and that's about it. I don't really have a map for next month. If you have any ideas, please let me know, please send me comments, suggestions, and let me try to review some films.
Alright, here are the movies I reviewed through January 2011:

Don't feel too bad, Jorge. Most of my blog posts don't receive comments either, and I gave up hope of gaining access to the League a long time ago. Just do what you love doing, and don't pay too much attention to who is or isn't reading, commenting, etc. I've learned that blogging is a whole lot more enjoyable when you're doing it for yourself instead of because you're trying to command an audience. The audience comes and goes. You need to be the constant.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on the job front.

ReplyDeletei added your site to my rss feeds and i'll keep an eye out for your writing thanks for the comment
Sir Jorge, today is the 23rd anniversary of Heather O`Rourkes death, perhaps a reveiw of "Poltergeist 3" (1987) might be in order.
ReplyDeleteSir Jorge, over at Soiled Sinema they did a tribute to Heather O`Rourke specially for me, its fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI love the blaxploitation genre too Sir Jorge. I know that their base is mainly action but if you do find the time how about Blacula?
ReplyDeleteI thought I did Blacula, apparently not, I'll revisit it soon enough
