I really loved this post! It was fun to get to know a little bit about the people who make Eden so awesome and have a place to ask them questions. I'm question free at this time but I would like to throw out a huge THANKS to all three of you for everything you do! less

Sammi’s biography:I wrote my first review for EdenFantasys way back in February of 2008, and I've been working for EdenFantasys for almost 3 years (in November). I'm the Community Development Coordinator, and many of you know me from the EdenTasks proofreading program. I'm married with 2 kids and 2 dogs, so we're constantly running in circles. Free time is something we cherish, as you might imagine. I love horror movies (the bloodier the better, but I've probably seen them all) reading, and writing, and would love to be published some day. I also love to bake and make chocolates, but leave cooking to my husband. We recently celebrated our 20th anniversary where we got married, in Las Vegas. We even renewed our vows in the same chapel! less

There's so many, they change somewhat depending on my mood

I think my all time favorite horror movie is probably Re-Animator (unrated). It's darkly funny, bloody, and Jeffrey Combs is fantastic. The whole thing is just great, and it fairly well mirrors the short stories it's based on.

Up there with Re-Animator is Dead-Alive - I think that was my first introduction to Peter Jackson, and it's truly a funny gore-fest. At the time it was made, it had more blood than any other movie (3,000 gallons in the finale "zombies meet lawnmower" scene).

I don't get scared much, but I think the Blob (the original) scared me the most ever. Keep in mind, I was 3 when I saw it, and my parents didn't let me see the end where they killed it, so for years I had nightmares about the blob coming through the heating vent in my room when I slept. Cal-Tiki (a blob that left skeletons) scared me to death then too As a teen/adult, I'd say The Omen, Ringu, and a Nightmare on Elm Street. I think because of the concepts in each. For example, Freddy is humorous, but the idea of dying in your sleep, or being able to bring something out of your dreams? Scary stuff

Most disturbing? Audition and Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer. Both of these actually had me thinking about them for days. Audition's pretty low key, but that last half hour... and Henry, which is very low budget, is just disturbing and depressing.

I have lots of other favorites, probably in every conceivable category - I have quite an obsession less

JR’s biography:

Howdy!
I started with EdenFantasys in October 2008…wow, four years already?! I didn’t get involved right away, but my ex did. She’s the one who introduced me to EdenFantasys. Once I got involved though…I was hooked! She eventually was hired to work with Gary on the review program and that led me to getting hired too. Such a lucky break!
When it comes to my duties and tasks here…let’s just say it’s a LOT of stuff. But my main job is to make sure things run right for everyone and no one has an unanswered question or unresolved issue.
I’m a nerd. Really. I have dice with more than 6 sides. I play role-playing games…not in the bedroom though. It’d be awkward to write up a character sheet for that. I do the Live-Action stuff too.
I the proud single-cat dad of two boys – Dip and Fidget. They’re my “special little guys”.

We used to do something similar, but we called them "Deserve to Die" parties.

Hmmm - there's so many

A personal favorite of mine is "Hell of the Living Dead." It's a bad one from Italy about zombies that are "created" on an island, and this group of people trapped on the island (military and non-military mix).

Some classic parts include:
- the female reporter, strumming her hand in a pond, and the zombies begin to arise (they're the slow sort). She, to her camera guy : "do you think this is a leper colony? Maybe we should run?"
- stock footage of maggot eating zombies
- the same female, an "expert" on the natives because she lived with them for 6 months, is going to go amongst them to find out what's going on. So, she rips open her shirt for the gratuitous camera zoom. less

A question for all-

In Elementary school (say 3rd-4th grade) what did you like to do at recess? Was it swings, slides, jungle gym, tag, dodgeball, chase the girls/boys, secret clubs, or something else? And at that time were you a more of a rabble rouser, peace maker, teacher's pet, dork, class clown, smartass, social butterfly, or loner? less

Hmm, good question. I'd either be looking for work or trying to figure out how to make the household run on a single income. I was a housewife for three years before Eden and I'd probably return to it.

My dream job? This is it. I get to design things and my input matters and I never had that in the companies I worked for in the past. I feel needed here. What more can I person ask for when it comes to their job?

And yep, no kiddos for us. Just not something I feel I want or need in my life. less

There's definitely something to be said about the teacher's pet loners who played four square...

That's me too!

I honestly don't know what I'd be doing if I wasn't working for Eden.

For kids? I dunno. If they happen, they happen. It's not a driving desire for me to reproduce...plus I think there would be protests... less
