- OOOh, but the first one! I saw it Halloween night when I was fourteen &
- alone in the house. I remember the opening scenes, when the young couple
- is being pursued by a zombie. I was totally engrossed in the movie & thought
- they had gotten away, but wasn't quite sure, when I heard a loud banging on
- my door. I literally leapt out of my seat! It was trick-or-treaters, of
- course, & the beginning of a very long night.

- I was sad to see that the later pictures didn't quite come up to snuff.
