Here's the scoop: 30 movies, 30 categories, 6 words about each film. The original meme starred movies of all genres, but what the hell fun would that be? (Actually an enormous amount, and it makes me wish I was up to date with my "regular" blog that I haven't written for in a year...) Naturally, I picked (as The Mike did) thirty horror movies. And here's what you get...
(Feel free to rip me off as well - what are friends for?)
