horror movies

Movies allow us to escape our everyday lives and experience something out of the ordinary. Horror films in particular serve as something we'd never actually want to experience personally, but still don't mind viewing through the celluloid eyes of fictional characters. But sometimes, there's a true story behind the scares, and that can lead to a horror that goes beyond the horror movie.

I finally got to see The Conjuring this afternoon, and I'm going to be so bold as to put it in my all-time Top 10 of horror films. After I see it a few more times, it might even crack the Top 5.

This past Saturday on Spooky Southcoast, we talked about the real story behind the upcoming film The Conjuring.
