"the little blond girl with pig-tails who creepily strokes her mother's cheeks while saying, "You're the most beautiful mother in the world." It was "The Bad Seed"! :) Love that one!

I totally heard "I want to kill you someday." Did someone already mention that one with the little blond girl with pig-tails who creepily strokes her mother's cheeks while saying, "You're the most beautiful mother in the world." Or something like that. It's a classic but I can't think of the name. Anyway, more creepy child speak.

But then I'm not a very confident camper to begin with, always figuring I'll be the first camper dragged out of the tent to be devoured by beasts or hacked to bits by hillbillies. Also agree that "The Birds" and "Alien" are some of the very best... and a few other good ones came to mind last night: "The Spiral Staircase<http://www.moviegoods.com/Assets/product_images/1020/196846.10 20.A.jpg>" (1945) "The House of the Devil<http://seriousmovielover.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/ house_of_the_devil_500.jpg>" (2009) and speaking of scary made-for-TV movies (I just recently saw the bizarre "Bad Ronald," it's been released on DVD for the Warner Archives<http://www.wbshop.com/Bad-Ronald/1000179737,default,pd.html?cgi d=>!), has anyone seen "Dark Night of the Scarecrow<http://adamantiumbullet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/dark_ni ght_scarecrow.jpg>" (1981)? My sister and I watched in on TV?alone?when we were kids and it totally freaked us out. Alex _________________ Alex O.
