My God, I Still get friggin' goosebumps when I think of that damn doll
I'm In the dark as I type this. Normally that wouldn't scare me, but thinking of that damn doll makes me (LITERALLY) glance down at the floor every now and then. Its crazy, I know, but there are only a few movies in the worlds that can do that sort of thing to me. Trilogy of terror (THE FINAL STORY ABOUT THAT DAMN DOLL) is one of them. I was seven years old when I saw this movie. My parents allowed me to watch it because they figured it would be tame because it was made for television. BOY WERE THEY FRIGGIN' WRONG! I can't began to express how that movie made me feel without stuttering. EVEN TODAY. Maybe I feel that way because I saw it as a kid. You know how easily scared a kid of that age can be. And that movie was like childhood trama to me. And it has stuck with me...even though I have seen horror movies since then that were much scarrier and probably would have frightened me even more if I had viewed them as a kid. Salems Lot also frightened me as a kid almost as much.
Hey guys. Trilogy of terror. Salems Lot. Satan's School for Girls. These movies were made for tv and still managed to scare a lot of people years ago. Some of you may not agree with the last two movies, but my point is, that's kind of unusual for a made for tv movie, don't you think? Its something that's not really suppose to happen. Television was tame and unrated back then, so I wonder how those few movies manage to slip past those bad-taste executives of the late seventies early eighties. Its been over twenty-five years since those films first aired, and since then tv hasn't frightened me again. What happened, did they tap into something back then that they can't tap in today. I believe that Salem's Lot and Trilogy of Terror could rival a lot of box-office movies as far as giving goosebumps.
Oh, and p.s.
Before some of you guys and girls start jumping on me for the 'SATAN'S SCHOOL FOR GIRLS' mention, that movie didn't really scare me. It really wasn't that good. I brought it up because it scared my sister. I think what really scared her was the 'SATAN' word in the title. So if you're going to respond, please don't waste it ripping me about the crappy Satan's school for girls.
