PEARRY TEO (www.pearryteo.com)'s Interests
|
| General | Filmmaking, Ghost Hunting, Lucid Dreaming. Go ride your bike or hike with someone else. I'd rather be writing and having a cigarette.
I like things I cannot look away from. Horror is always a great metaphor for peeking into a darker aspect of ourselves that we are usually afraid to confront in real life. It's a temporary mirror that we can turn on and off when we feel like it. It's a safety net before our darker selves take too much control of our life. But, what if, we could leave the door open, welcome it and play with it....then it becomes art. | | Music | Covenant, Switchblade Symphony, Jane's Addiction, Razed in Black, Cruxshadows, The Birthday Massacre, Sisters of Mercy, Ministry, Depeche Mode, Korn, The Doors, MUSE, Mogwai, Type O Negative, Second Skin, AndOne, Convenant, Wolfsheim, Juno Reactor, Die Form, Adenosine Tri Phosphate, Amber Asylum, Wumpscut, Orgy, Genitorturers, Deftones, man....do I have to list them all? | | Movies | Bladerunner, Ghost in the Shell, La Cite Des Enfant Perdus, Brazil, City of God, Delicatessen, Clockwork Orange, The Crow, Equilibrium, Hero, Ringu, Cronos, Memento, Nightmare Before Christmas .etc. | | Television | I don't fancy television, especially episodic series. It makes me stay on a routine and I HATE routine. | | Books | Geek Love, The Lovely Bones, The Painting of Dorian Grey, Helter Skelter, Great Expectations , Future Noir, Neuromancer, Communicating with the Dead, The Vampire Chronicles, The Sandman, Ghost in the Shell, Vampire Hunter D, Akira, if I mentioned more, would that change your opinion of me? | | Heroes | If you've read this far, you're my hero. |

About me:
 MY OFFICIAL WEBSITE. PLEASE VISIT AND SIGN GUEST BOOK "Really...at home...I'm always in my bunny PJs"
If you want to find out more about me as a person, I've said what I have to say on my website. I try not to repeat myself as I figured you're not a moron and don't need to be told something twice. I'll try to describe my philosophy of films here, something a little different to my website where it's more about the projects I do than philosophy.
A film does not represent a person. Neither does it represent a state of mind. Rather, I like to see my films as explorations, both consciously and subconscioiusly, of who we are and what we are about to become. It's also an idealistic, fantasy based search for romance. The typical norm of slut chicks and porn that has so infected our world holds nothing more than plastic meanings and disgruntled lies. Often times, we fail to realize we live in a world where the decay of humanity and society has eaten away at us. At the very least, I hope my films tear away at the plastic and let us see who we are, in all our beauty, and ugliness.

What have we become? We are nothing more than the very nature society has fabricated us since we were young. We are thought that colors have name. But what if you saw in blue and I saw in red, but a specific label was given and called green. We will never know how different we are. Even if one is not an artist, a simple stroke of a paint brush can tell a lot about a person, as proven by handwriting analysis. My way of expressing my difference is through films. Tell me yours.
The problem with many people is that they try to be "different". The problem is, there is no such thing as "Normal", or "Different" because we were already born different. Some of us just condone to society more than others. It is when an artist tries to be different is when he is not being honest with himself. He begins to murder himself in a subconscious way. He closes up what is beautiful inside of him. If I could paint flowers and blue skies more beautiful than I can paint blood, it is something I would do. There are many things about my art that I don't like. But I do it anyway because it is the only way...to be honest.

Who I'd like to meet:
I think people are inherently movie vampires. They watch movies so they can absorb and suck the life out of the characters on screen. For a moment there, they become that character, feeling the blood and life coursing down their veins. But when the second hour has passed, and the movie finishes, the hunger for a better movie suddenly begins to seep in. They want to relive the experience of a fantasy life of many kinds. People do that because they are afraid of pain. So, when movies allow you to feel a temporary pain, experienced in a safe place, what you are always so afraid of, they avoid pain in that weird way. They think they know pain because they watched a movie and understand it. Movies are like a healing process, to a filmmaker like me, they are like a torture. Because while the movie go-ers experience that pain for a couple of hours, the job of the filmmaker is to live that role for the next two years to understand his own film...
That is because...the best view of god is always from hell...
