The premise

Here’s the bit.

After a Halloween party, a woman invites her date upstairs to watch one of her horror movies. He insists that nothing frightens him, but a murderous doctor on the television, a carved pumpkin and ordinary decorations all expose his nerves. She challenges his bravado with a knife and starts stabbing him. He keeps making excuses, even as his bound family appears in a cutaway. A romantic confession briefly wins her over, but an invitation to a documentary screening finally provokes his loudest scream.

Say it with us

Highly quotable.

You know the drill.

What a wonderfully artistically rendered spooky face.

I think we've got some uninvited guests.
