I lived a self-sheltered youth. I am also a total wuss when it comes to horror movies. This is the first time I am watching A Nightmare On Elm Street. This one is creepy as hell and that is the point. Freddy Kruger is a chaotic, evil man. I didn’t know that this was Johnny Depp’s first big movie.
Something to reflect on prior to Halloween. Show kindness to those who are witches and those who are on the fringes.
Believe it or not, I have never seen any of these movies. Tonight I am seeing the original picture for the first time. It’s a creepy psychological thriller. Jamie Lee Curtis looks so young I would guess because the movie was made in 1978. Micheal Myers is as scary as billed.
This is a former Sears store. Now it’s a Spirit Halloween Store which is around for just a short time during this spooky time of year. These stores pop up every year in closed and abandoned retail spaces. It’s kind of depressing if you ask me. On a personal note, my dad worked for Sears when he retired.
At a nearby convenience store, Halloween candy is making its appearance. It isn’t even September yet. I love Reese’s and even like candy corn, but this is ridiculous. Stuff comes around earlier and earlier every year.
This sounds about right. Happy Halloween while it lasts. Remember Halloween candy is cheaper tomorrow.
I miss K-Mart’s and the costumes they sold. These costumes appear to be before my time.
