Population 436













Last week I had to take a break from biking due to an illness. It was frustrating, as I was really cruising. I was at the point that I had cut 12 minutes off my time. I was stepping up the resistance and feeling great. Unfortunately, a combination of the time off and the effects of being sick has really set me back. I have had 2 workout sessions this week and they were both difficult and unenjoyable. The only thing that motivates me is knowing that I will regain my past level and also keeping off the 5 pounds I lost while being sick!! I have logged in 30 miles so far this week. I am hoping to pedal another 20 tomorrow morning.

I am so far behind on my movie reviews and will try to catch up over the next few days.

Population 436 is a typical perfect small town with a creepy secret type thriller. Directed by Michelle Maxwell MacLaren, this movie featured Limp Bizkit frontman, Fred Durst. Overall the movie was well acted by a mostly unknown cast.

This thriller focuses on a Rockwell Falls, a seemingly perfect tucked away town with a population of 436. The town secrets unravel when Steve Kady, a US census worker is sent to investigate the fact that the population has not changed since 1860. Although much of the movie followed the basic creepy small town horror movie format, there were some twists that I did not see coming. Overall, this movie does it's job and keeps the interest of this chick, with an attention span of a gnat.

My grade...a B-
