Horror

[Farseer]

I grew up on a steady diet of horror, with Jason in his hockey mask a constant companion through the years. I never travelled down the road to get to Elm Street , and don't think I've even seen 'Freddie Meets Jason' (I think that's the title?). I also watched all of the Halloween movies. I don't recall ever having been frightened at all, despite the fact that I watched the lot at a young age (how my father ever let me sit there, I have no idea...but I saw a lot of movies growing up that I didn't let my own three children watch until they reached an 'appropriate' age!). Not sure why I was immune to knife-wielding, hockey mask-wearing murderers but I thought Cujo, Razorback and Jaws were the scariest movies I'd ever seen. I couldn't watch horror movies now, I don't think. I've chatted with my sons about the Saw movies over the years but haven't actually watched them. The storyline does sound interesting, I will admit.

I agree, AR. Things are just so much better shared, be they movies or books or a bag of chips etc. What a great son you are to enjoy doing this simple but special thing with your dad.
