With tango & everything else, we've sort of gotten away from our horror-flick "marathon" but last night we made white chocolate martinis and sat down to watch The Blob. Since this was our 4th or 5th movie, before starting the movie we placed a bet on how many times the heroine would scream. I said 6, Andy said 4.
So far, I'd say this one takes top honors as the strangest "horror" films I've ever seen. For one, it starts with a rather catchy theme song, and I'm not even positive the movie was trying to be scary. Kitschy, perhaps, but we suspect it was just something to go see in a drive-in theater so teenagers in the 1950's could make out. I thought that after my experiences learning to make jelly this year, I might find oozing carnivorous grape jelly somewhat frightening, but nothing. Perhaps if it had been pumpkin butter.......
And it turns out, neither of us even came close. The annoyingly-helpless female of the movie screamed exactly once.
Next up: Standly Kubrick's "The Shining." Lots of screaming from the annoying female in that movie--and generally from me every time I watch it.....Or maybe we'll just watch the Simpson's spoof..........
