I just saw Dr. Who's Blink last night.

I fear that my next reaction to statues would be gazing them with horror in my eyes, mumbling "you don't understand, I have to look at them. They'll kill me if I won't".

I'm still freaked out, but they're very cool creatures.

Edit: someone will have to remind me not to post without having enough caffeine in me in the future.

Yes, stone angels: still scary.

That was easily one of the most freaktastic eps I've seen. I can't remember the last time I was so unbelievably creeped out.

I would so buy a weeping angel statue for my garden if I saw one on offer.

Same.

Actually, I'd like to get two in slightly different poses, just for the opportunity to play some serious mind games with any Who fans who might be visiting.

Every time I see that style of statue in the background of another show, I want to shout "Look out, [character]! Don't blink!"

I don't know you people. I'm both creeped out and amused, and quite sure I'll never visit any one of you.

Then again, throwing a cat at my general direction would have the same effect on me, so it's a win-lose/lose-win situation.

Man. and I thought Buffistas are here to help me with life, not to get it more complicated.

"Blink" encapsulates what I so very much love about Doctor Who--the ability to take bits of string and paper and random junk and plungers and make it scary as all fuck. That is a talent that ought to be properly appreciated.

Trust me, I fully appreciate stuff that make me shiver for days after encountering them.

Steven Moffat's writing is now on that list.

Are you my mummy?

'nuff said, eh?
