The desert is where they tested atomic weapons, so that checks out.

Dirt cheap budget and corny but it did have a very cool premise. The monster was so bad I laughed out loud. Gets a C- because of my affinity for cheap 50's sci/fi horror

Watching Camp Cold Brook. Selected it because I was done looking and wanted to eat my dinner. Has Danielle Harris, pre-plastic surgery, and has potential...

...but there was a pretty shitty flashback sequence, so I'm suspecting a mixed bag.

This Spirit Halloween movie is corny as hell but fun. I like seeing their stuff come to life w/Christopher Lloyd voicing!

Proves theory that should always make friends with a science nerd. Damn they come in handy!
I love the fact that the Spirit Halloween looks like it takes over a Toys R' Us! They did that when the one in my town closed down. (now its a gym).

It's an old curse that causes all the creatures on halloween night to come alive and try to kill kids sleeping in the store. It ain't a rom com Tiggs!

I know some people want to hike a super high mountain or skydive or travel the world.
I just want to walk around and mess up a drugstore dressed as a Killer Klown...just once. Ugh. For the love of all that is holy. Just once. Please!!!!

The fact that you have to shoot them in their nose always makes me laugh when Walgreens does that red nose week promotion. Hehehe. :P
