Horror on TV: Freakylinks 1.7 “Still I Rise”


Up until Friday, I had either never heard of a show called Freakylinks.  According to Wikipedia, it aired on the Fox Network back in the year 2000 and it deal with a guy named Derek (Ethan Embry) who took over an occult-themed web site after the death of his twin brother Adam.  The name of that website: Freakylinks.com.  (Incidentally, the real Freakylinks.com is currently for sale if anyone wants to buy the domain name.  To be honest, Freakylinks.com sounds like it should be a cheap porn site instead of a paranormal site.)  With the help of his friends, Derek would spend each week investigating paranormal stuff and then I guess posting it to his site.  I’m assuming that there was no YouTube back in 2000.  (And according to Wikipedia, I am correct!  YouTube did not start until 2005.)

Anyway, Friday night, I watched an episode of Freakylinks with my friends Janeen, Holly, Ven, Tammy, Elway, Kurt, Amber, Myrna, and Bec over at SyFyDesigns.com.  As you might guess from that list, Freakylinks appears to be one of those shows that works better if you watch it as a part of a group.  The episode we watched was called Still I Rise and it had a zombie theme to it.  Towards the end of the episode, Ethan Embry goes a little crazy.
