even the nicest go bad

Well, I don't know if you guys ever watched "Gremlins" when you were little. It came out 1984. So, when I watched it, I had to have been 5 or so... unless it was the second one. Oh yes, "Gremlins 2" also came out... in 1990. So, I don't remember which one it was... I think it was probably the first one, because the Gremlins were cute through more of the movie.

Anyways, when I watched it, I remember thinking they were cute... until they went evil. I don't remember all of the movie, but I remember being horrified by the evil creatures. I think my dad was watching with me, and either we turned it off or I left, I'm not sure, but I was horrified... and couldn't look at my stuffed animals for the longest time. Kudos to Marce and Jen though for figuring out what the Gremlins were, because I couldn't remember the name.

Kind of like the X-Files episode I watched that had the girl's doll that was controlling her mother's mind and making people hurt themselves and others. My brother and sister-in-law bought me a Anne of Green Gables doll from Prince Edward Island and I had to turn it around to stare at the wall for several weeks because it reminded me of the creepy X-Files episode. Oh, speaking of X-Files, I bought the movie a couple days ago for $5 at Movie Village on Osborne!! I'm now a huge fan of that store because they have TONS of movies there that you can buy! That's my small pitch for Movie Village... now maybe they'll give me movies cheaper. I remember buying the X-Files movie when it first came out on video and then hiding it in my house and watching it whenever my parents weren't home. Then, I finally threw it out because I felt really bad about having to hide it. But, now, I bought the DVD and watched it with Maria a couple nights ago. Well, I fell asleep several times during it because I had to get up early the next morning to go to my sign language class but I couldn't go directly to bed because I had to wait for my laundry to finish. The dryer makes a horrible noise when it's done and it's right next to Mandi's room downstairs so I didn't want her to go get woken up by it.
