So, who's seen it? Definitely the best horror movie I've seen in years! I actually left the theatre genuinly shaking! Horror movies never do that to me. Plus .. you know its gotta be good when a chunk of the audience I saw it with walked out during the most horrific & intense part (the trailer attack). LOL. Wussies!

WOW. I saw it yesterday and was riveted. I absolutely loved the performances - there wasn't a weak link in the cast, but I think Vinessa Shaw as Lynn really stood out. She was strong to the bitter - and boy was it bitter - end. I also liked the whole thing with Ruby.

I was watching it there in complete and utter shock. My mouth couldn't have been open any wider.

4 kids walked out infront of me. a couple to my right followed soon after. Then looking across you saw a bunch more running out.

You know when people leave a horror movie in its most frightening and disturing moment it's gotta be good!

I saw it tonight and my partner and I walked out during the trailer scene. I was disgusted by it, and half the theater was filled with kids, many under 10. I don't even care how it ended up, but that was 10 solid minutes of gratuitous violence and I didn't care for it at all. And if the human violence wasn't enough, the guy bit the parrot's head off and drank the blood. I have two parents that I've raised since babies, so that was the last straw for me. I think you can be scary and creepy without be so intensely violent and gross.

LOL - it's intense. As I said, I left that movie scared shitless, and if I got scared shitless - it's not a tame movie.

and ya know, I have no sympathy for the children in the audience. Shame on you as a parent bringing a child into an NC-17 movie! And shame on your for allowing her to constantly disrupt my movie experience with her running in and out of the theatre during scary parts when you should have taken her to see The Shaggy Dog!

I totally agree. All these "family" organizations across America are out boycotting TV Shows like Book of Daniel or DH, but they probably need to be teaching some parenting skills. You don't bring young kids to this kind of movie. And the things is, I left, but none of them did. Those kids will probably all have nightmares tonight.

    • For years I did NOT go by Laura's opinion of Luke. Today I certainly do not go by Laura's opinion that Sonny somehow is good for Port Charles. Actually when it comes to being a judge of people's characters, and the issue is Laura, I just remember Esme.
    • Good point. It would provide some conflict with Jack. As much as I am not interested in Claire, I don't find it difficult to understand why she might be a bit reluctant  to commit to a guy who has already been divorced twice or is  3 times?before he is 30. That's a natural obstacle that Claire would be hesitant about. But in GC every relationship is true love and various past marriages are forgotten.

      I’m in NYC, and I can’t help but wonder if NYC prosecutors, politicians, etc. ever felt the way that Laura did, back in the 80s-90s when they were taking down the mob.  “Oooh, don’t put John Gotti in prison. The guy who comes in after him might be worse” 
    • Happy 18th Birthday, Sophia! I like that Tate gave her a birthday party. And that Marlena counseled him about whether or not he has feelings for Sophia, and his relationship with Holly. I like how messy Tate is and I hope he continues to be messy. He just needs to have more argument/fight scenes with Doug III

      Days just needs to work a little bit more on establishing better chemistry between Tate and Sophia, but I still think that’s mostly due to Rachel Boyd. Sometimes, I think that Sophia might secretly be scheming, but with the way RB plays it, (if that’s what they’re going for), it doesn’t seem to be working. Tate was also really sweet and dorky during the party too The drug scenes didn’t do much for me though. I don’t mind that Kevin panicked and ran off with the drug once he heard Steve and Shawn coming, but I felt like that story was the weakest part of today. But I am interested in seeing what happens next. And I couldn’t help but laugh when I noticed that Steve and Shawn had matching jackets Btw, I see Mayor Price established a quid pro quo with Xander today lol I wouldn’t mind that being more than just a plot point. It could lead to some pretty good drama if it’s handled correctly. And it would be a lot better than Xander declaring war on Sweet Bits/Chanel and Felicity.  And Stephanie, finally having her mother to confide in about her life, her relationship with Alex, etc. has been one of the best things about the Paula/Jeanne episodes. The book thing still seems very Ron/Jamey-like though, mostly because it’s so centered around Alex, sort of like how GH used to make storylines about Liz all about Finn or Franco Hopefully, Stephanie talks to Kayla about the book. I’d like to hear more of her perspective on it. I also like that Kayla and Marlena were there for each other as well. These are such better ways to use all three of them. And, we got an update about John One other thing I’ve noticed about the Paula/Jeanne episodes (except for the ones that are worked on by Jamey) is that they’re longer than Ron episodes. Episodes usually clock in at around 40-41 minutes now, as opposed to 35-37, or as short as 31. I like that.
