Let’s play.

.

Come on.

You know you want to….

.

.

I have to be honest here and say I can’t think of one.

I was one of those weird kids who loved to turn out the lights and watch horror flicks. Alone, in the dark.

Nothing freaked me out. Nothing scared me. I never thought there were boogie men under my bed or monsters in my closet.

I was the kid who laughed when Linda Blair’s head started spinning in the Exorcist.

I happily went swimming after seeing Jaws.

The mad slasher films of the 80’s? Pfft. They made me laugh .

If forced to choose one, I guess I’d have to say the old Rosemary’s Baby. It didn’t scare me per se… but i remember it being creepy and atmospheric.

.

.

How about you.

What movie scared the bejesus out of your childish self?

.

Classic cinema.

.

It was Halloween season when we were in New Hampshire and as I was blow drying my hair one morning in the resort, I heard strange sounds coming from the living room.

.

.

Turns outthe husband had found one of those mondo bizarro horror movies from the 50’s.. and it was a hoot.

Fiend Without A Face. No need to delve into the plot, just know it was marvelously ridiculous with disembodied killer brains on the loose.

.

.

They boarded up the doors, but it found a way in.

.

.

They chopped it with an ax…

.

.

But they still weren’t safe.

.

.

And just when we thought our damsel in distress could stop wringing her hands?

.

.

Multiple disembodied brains attacked.

Man, they don’t make movies like this anymore.

.

.

🤣

.

Another classic!

.

You’ll be sorry you missed this one.

.

.

So bad it was good.

.

.

Mad scientists at work.

.

.

They were attempting to shrink some shrews, but something went wrong.

.

.

Terribly wrong.

.

.

Which is why this fellow bellied up to the bar.

.

.

The shrew’s poisonous saliva killed this guy.

.

.

So our hero shot it.

.

.

But look!

.

.

Another one is chewing through the wall.

.

.

Yeah, sure. The couch will stop it.

.

.

That fellow is now behind the bar and I don’t blame him. Drink up boyo, they’re coming.

.

.

An escape plan is hatched with welded together oil drums.

.

.

Our heroine looks out but doesn’t like what she sees.

.

.

( The giant shrews? Skinny dogs with glued on tails and bizarre fur.)

Low budget cinema at it’s best.

.

.

Only the hero, heroine and mad doctor manage to duck walk the drums to the water’s edge.

.

.

Where they swim for the boat…

.

.

And prattle on about over population of a species that had absolutely nothing to do with the plot.

The shrews?

They’re left behind on the island to eat each other until none are left.

There’s a moral there somewhere….
