Halloween night; me and the idiot box....


What is Halloween without a good old scary movie to keep you awake at night, even your own breath sounds creepy when you sleep... and a walk to the toilet can be a long terrifying experience.Here’s my all time favourites. Note some of the movies are way before I was born.


1. The Exorcist (1973)….do yourself a favor do not watch this movie alone and at night is a no.. no

2. The Omen (1976) and (2006)….999 the devils number

3. Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)and (2010) ….. who can forget Freddy Krueger and his sharp fingers

4. Poltergeist (1982)….proof that late night tv can be hazardous

5. Psycho (1960)…sweet Norman Bates and his mum

6. Halloween (1978)….mike and his mask

7. IT (1990)… kids beware of Pennywise the Dancing Clown

8. The Evil Dead (1983)…..abandoned cabin is a no

9. Pet Sematary (1989)….careless truckers cause it all

10. The Shining (1980)-this is a classic

Laughter the best medicine....

I came across this strip the other day, the situation may sound familiar to some..... here's a roughly translated version in English:

Daughter:  Mummy Look! Bantu fail the exam this time too
Mum:  What?
Mum:  Look at our servant Ramu's daughter! She came first again! 
Daughter:  Whole year he's been staring at her and since then he's been failing.
