Scary Movies


Why do we have such absurd fears? This weekend, I watched the 2004 box office smash – Saw. It is a physiological thriller, with a touch of gore. Think Brad Pitt in Seven or The Silence of the Lambs

I am not an irrational person; I know the difference between reality and the world of make believe. But when a movie (or TV program) is so well written and acted, I can get caught up in it all. In fact, I was on the edge of my seat throughout most of this movie and my heart was racing like the Indy 500.

After the movie, I was scared shitless thinking about how the scenario in the movie could actually happen to someone. There are some sick motherfuckers out there. I turned on all the lights, triple checked the locks on the doors and windows, looked in the closets and phoned a friend to talk me down.

You thought Saw was well-acted??? I thought Cary Elwes was the worst actor this side of Tori Spelling.

I loved the idea of the film but he and Danny Glover... Egads. It was like watching two fourth graders trying to act Shakespearean... Didn't quite work for me.
