My Review of The Elephant Man

  I really liked this movie.  It was very emotional and heartwarming.  I really did get a feel for this movie and it had my attention the whole time.  It was a great movie which I really liked and it is now one of my favorites.  Not every movie has a happy ending and this one did not.  It was a truly tragic ending but it really fit well into the movie.  The movie really got to me emotionally.  I felt anger and also felt a lot of pity.  This movie really showed me that the monsters are inside of us and that our appearance has nothing to do with whether you're a monster or not.  This movie has made me see the world a little different for now I know who the real "freaks" are.  They're not the ones who look different than us, they're the ones who get a kick out of watching the misery of others.  This movie has really changed my views of the world and has really affected me significantly.

My Name is John Merrick

  My day couldn't get off to a better start.  I woke up and began to work on my Cathedral project.  It was coming out so great.  I could only imagine what the rest of it looked like.  While working on it Dr. Treves and Mothershead came in to give me the best news of my life: that I was allowed to stay in the hospital permanently  They gave me a dressing case and I was absolutely ecstatic.  I had never felt better in my life.  What I thought was the best day of my life ended up being one of the worst by the end of it.  The Night Porter, like usual, came with a group of people to my room.  Oh it was so horrible.  I felt so defenseless like always and they were tossing me around like a stuffed doll.  It was the worst night of my life.  If it had ended there it would've been fine, except that Mr. Bytes came by and took me with him.  I could stand the humiliation of the Night Porter but I couldn't stand the abuse that Mr. Bytes gives me.  I felt so violated and I never want togo through that night again.

Welcome to My Nightmare...MUAHHAHAHAHA

I once had a nightmare that included my grandfather.  What was odd about this nightmare was that I had the nightmare twice.  They were spaced out by maybe a month, but they were exactly the same.  In the nightmare, I am in an abandoned hotel.  I have honestly never seen this hotel before but I was in it.  I was walking around in it, terrified for I was alone, until I saw my grandfather in it.  I thought he would make it better, and in a way he did, for I wasn't alone anymore.  What happened after was what really horrified me the most.  There was a killer in my dream and he went chasing after us.  He walked very slowly and I wasn't able to see his face, only his feet walking towards us.  In my dream I never did see his face and that is what I think freaked me out the most.  Well, he was chasing us and then it turned out to only being me.  My grandfather had left my dream and I was alone.  I trip and right before he throws the slash I wake up.  I woke up at exactly the same time both times I had the nightmare. It is one that I will surely never forget.
