<< shutitdown: taking one for the anecdote

Friday Five...Halloween edition.

1. What is your favorite scary movie?

I absolutely love the Nightmare on Elm Street series. The first one and Dream Warriors are my favorites. Eminently quotable. "Welcome to prime time, bitch!" I actually like a lot of horror movies. The Brood is another great one, but those bastards rate it 5.9 on IMDB. But then again, my entry on Digital Photography Challenge currently has a score of 2.9, so really, what does the public know? Nothing. NOTHING.

When I was little my favorite scary movie was called Child of Glass. It was terrifying. I remember having nightmares about it, and being too scared to watch it in a room by myself. Yet I watched it again and again--even though I got the heebie-jeebies every time. Just last year I found a copy of it and found out that it is a DISNEY MOVIE and rated G. So I guess I am a wuss. But I tell ya, that thing was a creepy movie. There was an alcoholic guy in it who kills a little girl and then hangs himself in the barn. They sure don't make G movies like they used to!

2. What is your favorite Halloween treat?

Candy corn. Hands down.

3. Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, describe your best Halloween costume.

Last year I was clincally depressed for Halloween. It was great because I didn't need a special costume.

My friend Iris had great costume ideas. Once in high school she was an abortion for Halloween. She wore a flesh colored body suit drenched in fake blood, and a clotheshanger around her neck. I didn't have that kind of balls in high school.

4. Do you enjoy going to haunted houses or other spooky events?

I don't have a social life. If I did, I might enjoy these things. It's hard to imagine though.

5. Will you dress up for Halloween this year?

I don't know what I am going to do yet. I was thinking about being Manic-Depressive this year

I think the best scary movie is Return Of The Living Dead. It was filmed in my home town, and I used to live in the house that some of the movie was filmed in. Still at 25 I can't watch it without nightmares to follow.

i can't believe nobody has mentioned sam raimi's evil dead series. i saw evil dead two when i was in the 8th grade. it was great. anyone who hasn't seen the trilogy should run out and buy them, now!

You know why Dream Warriors rocks so hard? BECAUSE DOKKEN DID THE THEME SONG FOR IT!!!!

DOKKEN!!!

Well, if you're Manic-Depressive this year, can I be Bipolar Disorder? Or have they stopped diagnosing that?

I forgot to put C.H.U.D. and of course its sequel, C.H.U.D. II - Bud the Chud. Classics.

My vote for scariest movies are: Alien, The Thing, and Signs.

Bags I get the first suicide watch :D
