With the wild­fires last week, I’m afraid I reserved my inter­net band­width for obses­sive news refresh­ing, Utopian.net work, and over-diligent cup­cake plan­ning for the IF Show on Sat­ur­day. So it’s been awhile since the last movie post.

I knew when I started this endeavor that I’d save this movie for last — it is eas­ily the movie that has fright­ened me the most. I first watched it alone dur­ing a thun­der­storm at the age of four­teen, the vicious winds were a con­stant roar out­side. I could only hear the wind and the screams from the tele­vi­sion. I didn’t hear the tree fall next to the win­dow, and when my mother came in later with a pale face and wide eyes and asked me if I had heard it fall, I didn’t hear the door open and the sound of her voice behind me made me scream.

I love this movie.
