I owns it. Is it horror?
yeah, i've watched it before for a challenge. good stuff.
Guess I'll throw it in for my next watch hopefully today. Since we're doing vehicle oriented horror
found a copy to borrow when it becomes available within a couple of days.

"Duel", "Carrie", "Annie Hall", some movie posters put the title in quotes.

Jumping from Annie Hall, Woody Allen liked to put his titles in quotes. But he's a pretentious dick, so who is to say why.

My noggin from English class back in the day wants to say it's proper to put the title of something in quotations when doing an essay etc. So the Olds were likely following suit, until somebody cool finally walked up and said we're making a fucking movie poster and there is no teacher, so cut that shit out.

When I got past the fact it wasn't going to compare with the book and accepted it for what it is it's not bad. I look forward to seeing the other cut that's an hour longer
