“There is one female survivor.”
Better check out what she was eating or whom over the weekend.
She must be the good girl that didn’t fool around – the usual sole survivor.
Roger That! A little freaky too…
Two days late.
Betcha it was the Zombie Redneck Torture Family.
Why oh why is the picture of Jason? A multiple murder in Texas, one female survivor?
Sounds like the work of Leatherface to me.
Ugh.
Can’t wait for the movie, and the sequel, and the reboot, and the Lifetime made-for-tv movie and the direct-to-DVD ripoff and the Law and Order treatment and for hollywood to come up with their own ideas.
And in other news . . .
An insoluble paradox!
I get bored in horror movies. Show me a Saw flick where someone climbs into an oven or gets pushed into a tub of needles, and my thrice-damnably annoying brain loudly proclaims FAKE. But if I see an Islamic fundie beheading someone on YouTube, I literally hurl and have nightmares for weeks, because I know it’s real. I have a harder time watching old grainy black-and-white war footage than hyper-realistic blood-and-gore special effects. For me, when it comes of horror, knowledge changes everything. Sometimes I wish it were otherwise. I’m the same way about roller-coasters. The gee-forces can be fun, but the risk is all illusion, so I only get half of the fun most people apparently get.
That said, I’m a total hypocrite. If I see a wormhole in some sci-fi flick, I’m oohing and ahhing all over myself. What’s weirder is that I know enough science to realize how totally implausible most SF is, but I really don’t know how they do the special effects for modern horror films. SMDH at myself.
Reminds me of these ghastly murders:
It is shocking how much of horror movies can intrude into real life (or more likely vice versa).
Some years back, when I was still younger than 30, I came up with the idea to visit with friends a totes-legit haunted place near where we live. I did some searching and came up with a graveyard not 5 miles from my house.
It seems that weird things have been seen there since the early 80’s, when some crazed teenagers (maybe 3 of them?) murdered a bunch of people and held cannibalistic rituals in the graveyard with the body parts.
OK, ok, yeah, I hear what you’re saying. “Citation Needed.”
One of those people was the last person to be executed in my state before it was banned. It is in fact a matter of official record.

Here you are, arse:

EDIT: Re-reading my original post, I don’t actually believe that weird stuff takes place in the real world. However, horror-movie quality stories took place nearby, which were officially documented.
Okay, I’m willing to get accused of being a concern troll. So be it.
I think this BB post was in really poor taste. Kinda gross, kinda mean, kinda insensitive and kinda reaching and ham-handed (“Horror movies are real”, “A camping trip went horribly awry. It sounds exactly like a horror movie.” C’mon.) But mostly, it’s in poor taste. And I’m pretty surprised no one else has said so
I’m really not comfortable with turning this in to a joke.
Also we learned horror movies were real back in the 1970’s. There is stuff in the history of Ted Bundy that would beggar belief in a movie.
Yeah, I watched the movie about him with a group of friends. To accompany the furthest living girl home we ended up biking there in a group. She did not want to go home alone and none of the guys wanted to bike back from her place alone.
My first thought as well.
