Haiku Reviews

Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve seen a number of movies. I haven’t written about them because they’ve all been pretty unremarkable. Still, I wanted to post a quick haiku summary of each. Here they are, in order from quite bad to pretty good:

I feel dirty
Is Buffy’s little sister
a sex symbol now

Desert racing Man-horse love affair
Aragorn has a pistol
and fewer sidekicks

Zombies shouldn’t run
Slicker and stupider than
the original

Girl abducted
Mamet’s movies are clinics
in storytelling

Good site. Thanks for the sleuthing on Yanor’s continued plagiarism of NYT re schadenfreude. Regarding your haiku, however: The first line, like the last, should have five syllables, not four.
Cheers, Shane

Yeah, wasn’t Spartan amazing? Mamet’s finest work.
