The Bottom 10 inspirational thought of the week:
"You played a good game, boy ... but the game is over. Now you die."
-- Tall Man, "Phantasm"
As a rule, I did not watch scary movies growing up. Wait, let me clarify. I loved "Dracula" and "Frankenstein" and "Creature from the Black Lagoon." What I didn't love were chainsaws and axes and people running and screaming from the axes and chainsaws.
But eventually, as the people running eventually learned, the axes and the chainsaws were unavoidable. As I grew older and home video became a thing (yes, I'm old enough to remember when there was no home video) people brought slasher movies to sleepovers and Halloween parties and, creepily, church youth group functions.
