All Hail Jason - and Nick!

In the spirit of Friday the 13th taking the top spot at the box office, I thought I'd reflect on some of my favorite scary movies. But first, let's take a minute to congratulate the future slasher writer- our own Nick Sanda!!!
Nick is graduating this May from high school & I just found out he is his class valedictorian. Also he is President of the National Honors Society-way to go Nick. Nick has a passion for scary movies & he will be going to a college that has a good film school. Start rolling in scholarships-you'll be lucky to have him. Now this isn't a plug to put me in one of his films, but he can, I can be the first one killed off, no problem. :)
Sooooo..... Jeff & I will be going to the movies hopefully Wednesday. It's been all planned out to see Taken w/ Liam Neeson. I really want to see it but is it worth to spend 2 hrs. on Friday the 13th??? Nick says yes for the most part- the trailer does look enticing. I was a huge fan of the first three-give or take some scenes.
The top of my list is still the original Halloween. Now someone in my family, I won't say who but the name rhymes with Don, really hyped up the remake that came out a few yrs. back.

AWFUL!!!!!!!!! Really violent-kid violence too, explicit sex scenes-one is enough, c'mon. I mean, I'll check out Nip Tuck now & then. When I want to watch a scary movie, I want it to scare me!!
Also on my list are Cape Fear, The Birds, Racing with the Devil & The Strangers.
One that I will NEVER watch nor my kids while they live with me, is The Exorcist. Ugh, I hate just looking at the title. I guess being catholic & knowing posessions are a real thing is what is the scariest. It is so scary that I can't even listen to the music.
So I hope on this Valentine's weekend some of you made to a movie-scary or not.

Now off to watch Space Buddies. Happy watching! Eat local-or go to Longhorns.
