Notes
No, no, no, no.
I am not a fan of the “horror” genre. I saw 'House of Wax' when I was about 12 in our local small-town theater. I think it may have been the first color 3-D movie commercially released. I have avoided them ever since. Those that I have been suckered into either have been very, very good-- and scared the bejesus out of me -- or very bad.
