some one who claims

for someone who claims to like scary movies why have i not seen the new exorcist movie? part of it maybe getting old and feeble and worried about breaking a hip running to the car in a darkened parking lot in the dark after the movie lets out. i seem to actually find it creepier to leave a scary movie at midday...but the usual conception of scary is in the dark and it's other people's imagination that scare me the most right now. but how many people out there really have an imagination or the energy and will to use it if they have it?? the kind that really scares me is what i've heard referred to as the "redneck" imagination...that's the string of scenarios that always starts, "i wonder what it would feel like to....?" while the majority of the time that kind of curious and distasterous energy is directed at themselves...it's the few really scary times that someone drags someone over a dirt road, or locks someone in the trunk of a car then drives them to a remote place and kills them. or breaks into a home and has their way with the residents, eats a sandwich and lets their cats out. ugh. now i am creeping myself out.
