1. What is your favorite scary movie?<\/b><\/p>\n
Aliens<\/i>. It’s not quite the scare ride that the first Alien<\/i> movie is, and it doesn’t carry the psychological gravitas of Alien 3<\/i>, but James Cameron’s Aliens<\/i> manages to be both scary and a ballsy action film at the same time.<\/p>\n
2. What is your favorite Halloween treat?<\/b><\/p>\n
M&Ms. As if the answer was in doubt.<\/p>\n
3. Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, describe your best Halloween costume.<\/b><\/p>\n
No, I don’t.<\/p>\n
4. Do you enjoy going to haunted houses or other spooky events?<\/b><\/p>\n
Not particularly, because they’re not especially scary. It’s like watching Hannibal<\/i>. Most people were freaked out by a scene very close to the end (and if you’ve seen the film, you know the scene I mean, the one involving a skillet), but I wasn’t freaked out at all. I was far more interested in how the hell the filmmakers achieved that particular effect and made it look absolutely convincing.<\/p>\n
In other words, a haunted house isn’t real, you almost expect what’s going to happen, so why get worked up over it?<\/p>\n
5. Will you dress up for Halloween this year?<\/b><\/p>\n
Doesn’t answer number three make this one a no-brainer? In other words, no.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
