msfledermausI have a handy tip for all you LJers out there: Never watch the Blair Witch Project with a windstorm outside your window...every time my window creaked I started awake, so I'm a little groggy this morning. Yes, I am stupid. And I did it on purpose, thinking, "Oh, this will be SO much cooler with the outside noise rattling everything!!!" (Repeat after me: I am stupid.) Do not be stupid. Do NOT watch the Blair Witch Project before bed during a windstorm.
Watching the movie, I thought of a bunch of useful things our heroes could have done to make theire stay in Burkittsville more agreeable. I give you:
A LIST OF THINGS TO DO IN THE SPOOOOOOOKY WOODS...
1: Let someone know where you're going, you idjits!!!
2: Bring some chalk, preferably blue or bright yellow, and MARK THE DAMN TREES SO YOU DON'T GET LOST!!!
3: Three words: GPS unit.
4: Bring stuff to make a big fire at night. Preferably gasoline. Maybe those damn spooky stick figures someone thoughtfully left for you...
5: Do not disturb the carefully arranged piles of rocks...Just don't.
6: When someone's going Oogy Boogy in the woods, don't split up and go chasing after it hollering "Hello?!?!! Hello?!?!?" with nothing but a flashlight.
Stay by the nice warm fire so you can see the gibbering fiends!!!
7: The woods can give you everything you need...big rocks, clubs, sharp pokey sticks and other useful spur-of-the-moment weapons. If you're lucky, you can grab a skunk and aim it in the direction of your tormentor/s...
8: If you're stuck in the woods anyway, you may as well take the time to dig a nice pit lined with punji-sticks in front of your tent before you retire for the night.
9: If someone's screaming with the voices of the damned inside an abandoned house, don't yell back...They're screaming for a reason, and that reason might find you tasty and good with ketchup.
10: Did I mention DON'T SPLIT UP AND RUN TOWARDS THE DANGER?!?!?!?!?
Especially in the spooky abandoned house with the scary little kid handprints everywhere?!?!?!?!?
Okay, so this post is a little late to help 2 movies full of scared campers...so sue me.
