Love the scary stuff.

 I love horror movies. Alot. Like, ALOT alot. Zombies, Vampires, Demons rampaging the earth, Supernatural scariness, Mindbending thirllers that make you scratch your head at the end of the movie and think "What did I watch? I have to watch that again". I love it.
I love sitting in the dark with ear buds and no one around (Loser doesn't like them so much) and have the crap scared out of me. I yearn for that uncomfortable feeling that good horror movies give you.

 I have been watching them since I was about 4. I can rememnber sitting on the couch with my mom watching "The Howling" and loving every minute of it. I remember some movie that had a beach and something lived under the sand and pulled people under. I LOVED IT! I was never into the killer animal movies like Jaws. That wasn't scary to me. Stupid people swimming in a sharks refrigerator. What did they expect?

 Now I have been watching horror movies for around 25+ years. It takes alot to scare me anymore. There are 2 movies that scare me. Well, not scare me but have things in it that scare me.


#1. The Exorcist. Not the whole movie. There is a creepy "Holy Crap" vibe to it. But WTF IS UP WITH THIS?!

 I mean seriously. Was this necessary? Were they just trying to make me pee my pants and have a mini heart attack? And they can't just show it. They have to be all sneaky about it. "Oh it's just a dark room and she's alone. HOLY S*#T WHAT WAS THAT?" Not fair.

#2. Poltergiest Part 2. Now I love the first one. And don't get me wrong. It scared the crap out of me. The tree freaked me out. And the pool in the rain! (which were all actual human skeletons by the way). But part 2 had an especially delicious bit of evil.


What the hell were they thinking?! This still makes me want to beat the crap out of something every time I see it. And OH Loser doesn't like horror movies but he simply can't pass up a chance to come up behind me and start his "Hello little girl" crap. He knows it makes me freak. This man is so freakishly scary to me it makes me a bit unstable.

Now, My loverly twatwaffles are being indoctrinated into my very own little "Horror Club". They love the scary as much as I do. So when I saw that "Insidious" was coming to DVD, WELL THEN, We have to see that. So I get it. I decide to watch it (as I do all movies before the kids watch them) Everyone in the house was asleep. I popped in my ear buds,  Turned out all the lights, popped it into my computer and hit play.

Holy Mother Of All Things Holy!

I had to stop it 3 times. I washed dishes, Did laundry, Made myself a cup of coffee. It has been years since I enjoyed being that scared. It may have been somewhat enviornmental but Wow. If you like scary movies, Watch it. In the dark, With the volume loud. I won't give any spoilers but shazam.

I rarely read reviews because, Hey, Everyone's taste is different. But I read some after I watched this fabulous piece of film and everyone seems to agree. You will need a valuim at some point in this movie.

SO , Hit the redbox, Buy it, Borrow it, Whatever you have to do. But watch this movie.
