The Musical Whorehouse: Proudly Irrelevant Since 2009: Elite Squad (2007)

Boredom. Redefined.

"Movies aren't just entertainment. Movies are magic. The ticket to other worlds, past lives, and future generations."

Welcome to The Musical Whorehouse, a blog dedicated to my thoughts on the movies and television shows I watch. While I enjoy pretty much every type of genre, I tend to gravitate toward horror cinema and all of its various offshoots. However, that doesn't mean I won't watch a (good) romantic comedy or the latest blockbuster to hit theaters. Nothing is off limits for me, regardless of popular opinion.

I've been listing the movies and TV shows I've watched since 2005 when I was a young college student; since then I've expanded to Blogspot and began reviewing the titles I watch (I use the term “review” loosely). I am in no way a professional writer and occasionally just scribble a few thoughts down; however, I generally try to at least provide some perspective and humor.

If by some unfortunate sequence of events you stumble upon my blog, I hope you at least find my taste in cinema interesting. If you gain some perspective on a recent release or find humor in whatever low budget slasher I just ripped apart, I'll consider The Musical Whorehouse worthwhile. If you hate everything about the site and think I have a terrible opinions, well, then I'm sorry I'm too much of a man for you.
