Ok the film makes sense now!

Hey guess what, I made it through the night without any zombies coming after me!

By the way - has anyone watched silent hill - does it get any scarier?

I used to love horror movies when I was a teenager. Of course, that was in the eighties so they weren't as scary as the ones now. They didn't bother me at all until I saw The Lost Boys. That movie scared the living daylights out of me! I can't go see scary movies anymore because I hold my purse in front of my face the whole time, and I scream bloody murder at every little thing in the movie. Then I start laughing at myself which really annoys the other moviegoers. Plus, when I go to bed I just lay there and imagine monsters walking up the stairs, down the hall, and peeking at me through the door.
