I'm no good at coming up with movie names but I thought a few people might be interested in this.
I see Chucky in a window.
There are billions of people and a version of normal to go along with each one of them. No two versions are exactly the same. There will be hundreds of thousands of little things that make up your version of normal. With any luck you can find people that have close to the same idea of what normal is that you do. These are your friends. Anyone else you try to tolerate as best you can. .... The exact definition of normal depends on who's running the asylum.

Scream, Pumpkin Head, Beatlejuice, The Mummy, IT, not sure if the man in black is Jack The Ripper or priest in Exorcist, Freddy Krueger, red car is possessed automobile known as Christine, Chucky, Rock Horror, Bates Motel is where Norman Bates from Psycho works, Headless Horseman, The Crawling Hand, the pitchfork folks are heading up to the castle where Frankenstein can be found, Musnik’s refers to Little Shop of Horrors, the little scooter belongs to the boy in The Shinning, I think I see some scissors from Edward Scissorhands, woman in front of TV in Musnik’s could be The Ring, woman climbing from well with hair covering face could be the scary creature from The Curse. That's all I can make out.
I really don't do movies. This is an epic fail for me.

Mike, there was just the tiniest hint and smidgen of "The Living Dead at the Girl-chester Morgue" (1973) as well, but it was so ludicrously obscure i didn`t think i`d bother to girl-tion it.
There's the Exorcist on the corner under the street light!
Deb, Mike, BootsandBraids, Elephants Child, just an interesting point with regards to "The Exorcist", you know that famous scene around half-way through the movie where Ellen Burstyn the room and Linda Blair is ****ing herself with a ******** whilst shouting "Let ***** **** me" "Let ***** **** me" over and over, and then pulls Ellens head and face down to her **** and de-girl-ds of her mother "**** me" "**** me", and all hell breaks loose and Ellen gets thrown across the room and then Lindas head turns around and says (presumably with that murderous and nauseating gravelly voice of Mercedes McCambridge) "Did you see what she did ?, your ****ing Daughter". Now that entire scene lasts only about 30 seconds but if it was edited out of the movie it would render the whole film relatively toothless, it would still be a very good film of course but that scene was the "Jewel in the Crown" of the whole 120 minutes running time of the film and it offended and scared the **** out of people much more than any other mo-girl-t in the movie (and still does to this day astonishingly), it was that specific scene that gave people nightmares for years afterwards (even those who weren`t in the least bit religious) and earned the film its legenadary notoriety and reputation and infamy as the scariest film ever made, even the big climactic exorcism scene at the end of the film (although it went on for much longer and was admittedly a quite superbly done climax to the movie) couldn`t compete with it both with regards to how it repelled the audience and perhaps even more so in terms of its sheer unbridled visceral and murderous cinematic shock value. Like i said, 47 years on from its original release its incredible to think that without that specific 30 seconds nobody would have made a fuss about the film at all (even Billy Graham would`ve probably not bothered ! ! !).
LJ ... I've only seen the Exorcists that one time, when it first came out. Way too scary for me. And to this day, the soundtrack alone gives me the shivers. P.S. that's a shall we say "creative" list of movies you came up with. LOL.
LJ - 19; not bad.
DSWS - Yep.
LJ - I'm actually going to leave that alone. It's as close to a whole paragraph you've written that is only suggestive.
BB - You have no idea how "creative" LJ can get.
Some that may have been missed -
Ghostbusters (backpack thingy (plasmatron?) leaning against the lamp post)
Saw (head in the window above the frog - "I want to play a game . . .")
Little Shop of Horrors (is that Audrey, the "flower" behind the pumpkin?)
Silence of the Lambs (butterfly on the central lamp post)
Don't know what to make of that biohazard symbol on the chimney unless it's for "The Andromeda Strain", or maybe "Outbreak"
Shaun of the Dead (Cricket bat)
Any more will hurt my head . . . .

Pauline Hickey - COR...WOW...WEY-HEY ! ! !.
Never-the-less Mike you have to admit thats a very impressive list that your daughter and Brad and SIL came up with, their knowledge of movies must be even greater than mine. BTW Mike, at some point could you possibly do a review of "Confessions of the Strip-O-Gram Girls" (1985) and maybe post some stills from the movie as well to accompany the review, i`m sure it must be available on umpteen different movie streaming sites, its often been hailed as a masterpiece ! ! !, cheers Mike.
"They`re after me with guns and knives and fast fast horses, they`re after me with bombs and bribes and fast fast 17 year-old Pauline Hickey look-a-likes, they`ll try to tail me, trail me, when they nail me there, but they haven`t got a prayer"
"They`re coming from the north the south across the border, the enemies of peace and truth and law and order, they`ll try to cheat me, beat me, when they meet me there, but they haven`t got a prayer"
"They`re waiting in the bars, the streets, quiet places, they`re wearing shiny boots and spurs and smilin` faces, they`re gonna` stall me, maul me, try to call me there, but they haven`t got a prayer"
I always liked the spoken renditioning of that song by Lee Van Cleef that accompanys the opening title sequence of that film. BTW Mike, over on Margarets latest post you said that, at some point, you might do a post about me and my total and all-encompassing and all-consuming and all-engulfing obsession with the absolutely unbelievable 17 year-old Pauline Hickey from 1985, if and when you do it`ll be a perfect opportunity to finally publish all your own favourite pictures of the afour-girl-tioned and truly astounding Miss Hickey from 1985, dont forget Mike, cheers.
