“Scared?”
No, but there was a criminal out there. Jocks and popular girls always die first, usually together.
“It’d be cool to go while doing it.”
Swallow your words. I hear the chainsaw.

Haha thanks! Horror movies and freak accidents have put quite the stigma on chainsaws, huh? 😉

Great take on the prompt, Nortina. The guy better has his pants on. As far as slasher films go my picks would be A nightmare on elm street (the original one) and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
Thanks for linking up with #MicroMondays

He’s really playing his jock role well, huh?
A Nightmare on Elm Street literally gave me nightmares as a kid! I vaguely remember Texas Chainsaw Massacre, probably because I watched it with my eyes and ears covered!
My favorites would have to be Child’s Play, and because I’m a 90s baby, I Know What You Did Last Summer. Another one I absolutely hated, maybe even more Nightmare, Candyman. Gosh, so many bad dreams came from that movie! 😅
