Wild Wednesday

I was searching for the theme…

I wanted Halloween Music. I came across this List.

I love it. When I had searched for the same sort of thing on Movies…Well I found I was disappointed in the list. Scary movies most of these are not…at least not to me.
Boyfriend says I am desensitized.

He might be right. I was reading horror books back in elementary school – like real ones. Steven King and the like. My parents did not limit what I read. (I was reading College level by time I hit 4th grade.)

I remember being scared by some really well written stories.

And My imagination is far richer than most movies.

So, I end up being disappointed by the movies because they can not live up to the full richness of the stories in my head. I get people who get mad at me when I say that I am not a video person…because the shows rarely are worth the time I have to spend away from my books.

And I have no way to explain that without sounding strange. I love music. I love books. Movies and television however often disappoints.

Old radio programs and Theater shows are amazing however…

Wild Wednesday

Wild Wednesday!

Starting the Year off with the first actual Wild Wednesday…This should be interesting… Currently I am not even sure what to talk about…I feel like I opened up topics and now I am terrified that I will drive y’all away with my actual interests…Stupid right?

So Let’s Talk Movies. I don’t watch as many as I used to, but I have some defined favorites. I was really into theater as a teen. So many of my favorite movies have technical things that make them amazing.

I want to recommend a movie that I feel has been forgotten. The Uninvited. No, not that new one, but the black and white ghost story from 1944. It not only had an amazing story, but what few effects were used were pulled off flawlessly. I felt like this could have been performed on a stage and still pulled off. It was only mildly scary, which for a ghost story is a good thing, and it had such a sweet story to pull the viewer in.

What movie would you recommend that is mostly unknown? and why?
