Horror Movie Dreams Abound
Jan. 14th, 2004 09:15 amSo, apparently my mind is in a weird synergy with gollumgollum's. Last night I had a full-blown horror movie plot dream. It was long and convoluted, with various meanderings into dream weirdness, but the basics of it were that somebody was killing people in a really bloody and brutal way. The dead bodies were all carved up in an almost ritual manner and the houses were trashed. I was investigating the murders with this other person who may or may not have been my sister. We weren't getting anywhere so we went to this vacation house on a lake. There was a weird bit where I went fishing by putting on these ski-shoes that let me walk on water (y'see, the boats scare the mother fish so that she won't let her baby fish come out, but if you're standing on the water, she just thinks you're a big bug).
One of our group (nobody I know, just an amorphous group that I labeled "people") was the brother of one of the first victims. That night we heard crashing in the summer house. We went down to check on our friend, certain that he was already dead, but when we got there, there was no body. There was still a whole lot of blood and destruction, but no body. So, that's when I started to get suspicious. I went back to the house of the first victim (our friend's brother) and found that the house was trashed again and the guy who had moved in was dead.
After looking around, I somehow came to the conclusion (based on clues that fit perfectly in the dream, but don't so much in waking) that the murderer was in fact the first victim, and that he was joined now by his brother as well. I realized that
the sword they were using was a magic sword, and that if you cut yourself with it, then killed someone else who had been cut in the same place, your cut would heal and the area where you had cut yourself would grow incredibly strong. I realized that the first guy had cut himself, then escaped from the morgue and gone on this killing spree to make himself stronger. Then he'd gotten his brother to join him. The moment I realized all this, we heard noises outside and knew that the guys were there to kill us, since we were the only ones who knew what was going on and could maybe stop them, but of course, we didn't have any clue how to stop them. So we locked ourselves in a bathroom and waited.
Maybe that's when gollumgollum and her crew took over. I don't know cause I woke up.
