My Review of "The Elephant Man"

The Elephant Man, directed by David Lynch, was a really good movie in my opinion. Most movies that are based on a true story never really interest me, but this movie was one that really caught my attention. I grew fond of some of the characters, especially John Merrick. The kind of person he was and how he lived his life was very interesting to me. Another thing I liked about the movie was the plot. The way the movie was developing in the story draws in the audience and makes you like some of the characters, such as John Merrick and Dr. Fredrick Treves. You begin to ignore John's deformities and start to like him as a person. I really liked how Lynch set this all up in his head and how he made it work. The final reason as to why I liked the Elephant Man is because of how the characters changed over time. They seems to treat Merrick as another person with a disease but in the end, the characters all  treated Merrick like if he was family.

My Name is John Merrick

Today was started as a good day but now it is now a bad day. When I was in my room and working on the church, I was told by Doctor Frederick Treves that I have a permanent home in the hospital. I was such good news, I was speechless. Along with that, I was given a dressing kit. It is the best thing that I have ever been given. It came with a comb, perfume, and so much more. I was the happiest man in the world. But then later that night, while I was using the dressing kit, the Night Porter came into my room and brought other people. They pushed me, dumped beer on me and treated me like an animal. When they all left, I was barely able to breath and I felt horrible. And what made it worse, was that Mr. Bytes was left there, and he has taken me with him. I don't know where we are now, I just know that I an being kept with him and we are going to have another show tomorrow. I wish I didn't look like a freak.

Welcome To My Nightmare

I don't really have many nightmares, but when I do, I wake up sweating and shaking. To me, my only fear and phobia is insects, so naturally, this nightmare is about insects. In this nightmare, I was in class when spiders and other insects started crawling near my feet. I would so terrified, but I was in class and I couldn't do anything. They started crawling on me, and it got to a point where I couldn't see my body, but no one in the class noticed. My eyesight when dark and when I woke up, I was in a forest full of human sized spiders and insects, sort of like the Harry Potter Chamber of Secrets scene. I ran, and ran, and ran, but the amount seemed endless. I tripped and when I fell, I was dragged by the insects and when I reached what seemed to be a super-sized spider, I woke up sweating and I couldn't sleep for the rest of the night.
