I thought that I'd make a departure from movie quotes to test your knowledge on something else - movie taglines. You know, that nifty little blurb on the poster that's supposed to give you a teaser about the actual movie. Example, one of the taglines for Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is "Dobby has come to warn you sir." So I've collected 20 taglines from some of the best horror/thriller movies (and a few of my campy favorites and spoofs of the horror/thriller genre). There's no order to them, and some may be very obvious...others not so much. Good luck to everyone who dares to play my little games! Bwahahaha!

1. The night HE came home.
2. Take Carrie to the prom. I dare you!
3. Don't answer the phone. Don't open the door. Don't try to escape.
4. If youre going to bury the truth, make sure it stays burried.
5. Let the games begin!
6. You scream. You die.
7. Who will survive and what will left of them?
8. To enter the mind of a killer, she must challenge the midn of a madman.
9. Somewhere between science and superstition, there is another world. The world of darkness.
10. Can they be stopped?
11. The tide has come.
12. They keep coming back in a bloodthirsty lust for HUMAN FLESH!
13. It never forgives. It never forgets.
14. In the well, no one can see...
15. The story of the strangest passion the world has ever known!
16. The one name they all fear.
17. Trapped in time. Surrounded by evil. Low on gas.
18. A killer comedy.
19. In October 1994 thre student filmmakers disappeared in the woods near Burketsville, Maryland, while shooting a documentary...A year later their footage was found.
20. Four have the power. One will stop at nothing to possess it.

See if you can name the movie, if you dare...and just a note all taglines were checked for accuracy on the IMDb. And some movies have multiple taglines so I just picked the one I liked the best, not necessarily the first one on the list.

Good luck!

Oh, and on a side note, if you want some great horror/thriller/slasher action but don't have the time to actually sit down and watch all of the movies, check out 30 Second Bunny Theater for all of the great scary movies in 30 seconds or less, reenacted by a troupe of theater savvy bunnies.

Well, I finally got a new car. Officially it was Friday night that I got it - I've just been too lazy to come here and post the good news. It's a silver 1995 Thunderbird. So far my favorite feature is the V8 under the hood - I've mady a steady progression from a V4 (my parent's truck) to a V6 (my poor trashed Taurus) and now to a V8 - so it's got some serious giddy-up. Gotta be careful to make sure I don't speed! :D

All in all I'm happy that I don't have to look for a new car any more Here's hoping that stupid people are no longer behind the wheel in my neighborhood. (Not likely, but I can always hope!)

Well, I think I need to take a break from whining about my car scenario. So on with the movie quotes! C'mon people, humor me a little and play along. Seriously, some of these, if you even exist in the world, should be obvious.

71. Brick Top - Snatch
72. Oliver Hardy - Sons o fthe Desert
73. Jack - Titanic
74. Striker / Rumack - AIRPLANE!
75. Butch - Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
76. Alex - A Clockwork Orange
77. Don Vito Corleone - The Godfather
78. Dog - Lock, Stock, and TwoSmoking Barrels
79. George Taylor - Planet of the Apes
80. Maximus - Gladiator

The next ten:

81. La di da, la di da, la la.
82. I chose not to chooose life, I chose somethin' else and the reeasons? There are not reasons.
83. I'll be back.
84. I feel the need - the need for speed!
85. Esqeeze me? Baking powder?
86. Don't mess with the bull, young man. You'll get the horns!
87. You've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya, punk?
88. Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.
89. My precious.
90.Is that...Is that hair gel?

Granted you haven't been living under a rock for the last 20 years (heck, within the last ten years) most of those quotes should be somewhat familiar. Go ahead! Take a stab! Test yourself!

Well, acording to the local body shop, it's going to cost at least $3600 to repair my car. If it were new, that would be fine. However that's $1600 more than what we paid for my car. Thus, the kunundrum. I have to find a new car . . . and within the price range of $3000. Not exactly a happy chore. I liked my car. I miss my car. It was my car, dammit!

For the mean time I'm stuck driving a rental, which just feels weird. I was so used to my car it's strange to drive another one. And the prospect of finding a new one doesn't please me either. This isn't an excuse to go buy a new one because my car's value isn't enough to get a new one. Gah! Could life suck any more?

It has been long established in my neighborhood that drivers take the curve by my houes way too fast. They're usually going about 30 or 35 - five to ten miles over the limit - around what is not a hairpin curve, but one that should be taken carefully.

At 3:30 Saturday morning, a 20 year old kid took that curve at what I assume to be 45-55 miles per hour, sideswiped my neighbor's car before, you guessed it, hitting mine.

Thisis my baby now.

I haven't even had the car for five months. This is the car that I got for graduating from college back in May. And now it's kaput. At first glance the damage doesn't look to bad, but things are far worse than the initial appearance. The tire blew...that's how hard this kid hit it.

Well, my car served me well for such a short time...now I have to look for a new one...
