Okay, my creepy-loving friends, time to announce the chosen movie for my monthly live-tweet. For June, let's watch a horror movie...GET OUT. The 2017 American horror film was written, co-produced and directed by Jordan Peele, his directorial debut. I have not seen this. AAAAHHHH! I tried to go to the theater, but the schedule was mean and said no. So I have no witty insights to share here, only the blurb from the back of the DVD case. "When Chris, a young African-American man, visits his white girlfriend's family estate, he becomes ensnared in the more sinis[...]

2 Every month I get together with my horror-loving friends and live-tweet a scary movie. Because it's more fun with friends. This month I will be watching the 2007 psychological horror movie 1408, based on the Stephen King story of the same title. If you haven't read the story...do. I love it! Super creepy and weird and mind warping fun! You can find it in one of his anthologies. The movie is pretty different than the written version. The main story is the same, just amped up a bit. When making a short story, rather than a full novel, into a movie there'[...]
I am still squeeing and flailing about the IT trailer. September has never felt so far away! I would love to gather up all my horror-loving friends and go see it together! Sadly, that might be a little difficult, so we'll have to settle for live-tweeting scary movies. And this month, I wanted to take a trip back in time and watch an oldie, but a goodie. Let's watch... A Nightmare on Elm Street! The 1984 classic American slasher film written and directed by Wes Craven brought us the stuff of nightmares. This is the film that began the whole gory series. I love i[...]
It's that time again! To bring together all the lovers of the scary and creepy on Twitter for a live-tweet. Let's watch a horror movie! This month...Annabelle. A 2014 American horror film directed by John R. Leonetti, produced by James Wan, and written by Gary Dauberman, Annabelle was truly a delight to see in the theaters. And by delight I mean a creepy good time. We met Annabelle briefly at the beginning of the movie The Conjuring...remember? Well, we did miss her and wanted to know how this doll came to be...you know, evil. Well... Back in the 1970s, th[...]
I know everyone has been waiting on the edge of their seats to learn what horror movie we will be live-tweeting this month! Well, last month watching The Conjuring was SO MUCH FUN, let's continue with The Conjuring 2! The 2016 horror sequel to The Conjuring written by Carey Hayes, Chad Hayes, James Wan, and David Leslie Johnson and directed by James Wan follows the Hodgson family's experiences in the London Borough of Enfield in 1977-1979, based on the true story of The Enfield Poltergeist. Strange things are happening in the Hodgson's council house... Peg[...]
If you don't know about my love *cough*obsession*cough* of live-tweeting horror movies, well... WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? In my little real life world, I have no horror-loving friends, so I turn to my Twitter buddies to share in everything scary. Because watching movies with friends is better. Join me! We have ever so much fun! *hides the bloody knife* This month... A 2013 supernatural horror directed by James Wan and written by Chad Hayes and Carey Hayes. Meet the Perron family...Roger and Carolyn and their girls Andrea, Nancy, Christine, Cindy, and April. Th[...]
I love horror movies! I love to live-tweet them too! Once a month, precious, I tweet all my thoughts and feelings as I watch a scary movie. I didn't know how much fun it would be. To be able to watch it with others makes it more fun. Through Twitter, we can connect over our love of the creepy. Last month my horror friend Andrea and I had a BLAST live-tweeting the movie Lights Out. Neither one of us had seen it, so it was a lot of great first reactions. I haven't been so scared watching a movie in a loooooong time. I held my breath through most of it, but you bette[...]

That's right! My choice of movie to live-tweet this month is one of Amy's (one of our Midnighters) favorites! I watched The Cabin in the Woods because Amy told me to. Basically. And why wouldn't I want to? This 2012 horror/comedy was written by Drew Goddard and Joss Whedon, directed by Drew Goddard and produced by Joss Whedon. Dude. This movie made me laugh, cringe, and sent my horror-loving heart all aflutter. SO LET'S WATCH IT TOGETHER! We'll follow five college friends... As they go on a little vacation to a deserted cabin deep in the woods. It[...]
