Don't Be Afraid of The Dark

So the bowling date did not happen. They were having 'leagues'. No non-league people allowed. Sorry. Now get your non-bowling asses outta here!

Undeterred, we settled for a generic date: Dinner and a Movie.

I ate this penne stuff that was pure cheese. Solid cheese. Cheese as far as the eye could see. There were, oh, maybe 4 or 5 actual pennes….then CHEEEEEEESE!

We went for a walk afterward so I wouldn't throw up, which is never a good idea on a date. Puke: Oh, baby!

The movie was Don't Be Afraid of The Dark, a cute little horror flick I enjoyed. Nothing too challenging. No great surprises, just good clean wholesome terrorizing bloody fun, complete with monsters, a child in danger, and the obligatory Dumbshit Dad.

In the media, all men are stupid, barely able to run their own lives, getting lost in their own bathrooms, not being smart enough to work the fridge door, and if not for the Mom Who Can Do Everything, would likely starve to death right in front of it.

Men are stupid, stupid, stupid. Hollywood, my friends, is run by rabid feminists filled with wishful thinking.

So I liked the movie. It had Katie Holmes in it, who somehow escaped from the Tom Cruise Asylum and actually made a decent flick. Too bad she can't really act. Emotionally, she has about as much range as a BB gun. I like her, though. She was pretty good in this.

The Dumbshit Dad character was played by some guy whose job in the movie was to bumble around idiotically, not getting it and not believing anyone, especially those he claimed to love.

Katie played his girlfriend, which was hardly believable. If this tool actually existed in real life, he would be so unlaid it's not even funny.

The little girl, played by Bailee Madison, was awesome. She looked human and everything, which you don't see in Hollywood people anymore. She could act, too.

Go watch it. Fun stuff.
