• Terror Train! It is pretty silly (all those masks, all that magic) but it's also pretty terrific, and the setting can't be beat. It's Murder on the Murder Express and I'm here for Kenny's Gene Shalit mask, I'm here for Vanity (yes, that Vanity), I'm here for Jamie Lee Curtis and David Copperfield looking like an early 80s lesbian couple, I'm here for a cruel prank breaks someone's brain backstory...I'm here for all of it, from the opening chug-a-chug of the choo-choo to the closing splat of the killer. I have just about zero interest in slasher movies of the modern era, but the classic era? They are my horror root, and I will always always love them. They can be gross, they can be scary, they can be funny...they have a charm that is partially inherent and partially just my nostalgia eyes, sure, but I don't care. I want to go carve STACIE + SLASHERS 4EVER into a tree!
• I have only heard good things about Terrified, how frightening it is, etc, and I admit: I tried to watch it once upon a time but man! The incessant loud music stings telling me when to be scared! They got on my nerves so much that I turned it off. I'm through with horror movie soundtracks blatantly telling me how to feel. I'm through with it I tells ya!
• Okay, The Child rules. It is so weird! I dig it real hard. Rosalie and her zombie army will mess you up!
• "Breck"
• Can you go wrong with The Car? No, you cannot go wrong with The Car. It is about a driverless, evil car, and it stars James Brolin and Kim and Kyle Richards. I repeat: You cannot go wrong with The Car. Honnnk honkhonk honnnnnnnk!
