Annabelle was pretty good, it was the 2nd movie at the It doubleheader at the drive-in, though the wife and I had previously seen it. Wife was literally shaking. It is a 2 part movie. Part 2 is supposed to start filming early 2018 (part 2 will be the adults 30 years later). The kids were great in the movie "Dear Lord, save me from Your followers"

They have worked hard to keep it going and there was a big push and money donated so they could get a digital projector a year ago. There were very few film movies left anymore. I know where our $9 for entrance and money for popcorn and soda is going. "Dear Lord, save me from Your followers"

Stand by Me is just excellent. Carrie was pretty good. Most of King's other stuff that's been made into movies or mini-series' aren't that great but are watchable. I hardly ever go see a movie anymore. Taken the kids to see the remake of True Grit and that might be the last one I've seen. I may go see Bruce Willis' take on Death Wish when it comes out though.

Of course the TV movie failed to do it justice, though it was interesting to see Traci Lords in the production. People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.
