necro

i've lead a pretty pathetic life with over 1500 horror movies in my collection i guess i would become somewhat of an authority on the movies of horror

thank you so much for your concern zwoti but since i doubt any girl would want to date someone with as many horror films as i have i figured i might as well enjoy them while i still can., life does'nt laugh forever so live it up as the say or as elvis in bubba ho tep would say "tcb baby"

7 across - wrong
13 across - missed
4 down - close
12 down - wrong

valiant effort

invasion of the body snatchers damn i should have remembered that

13 across the omen and seven across is technically dracula but only because as memory serves me noserfatu was 1928

right decade

12 down- poltergeist

Not so much an authority as an assface.

thanks sis, that gave me a good laugh :D

assface? that's the best you could come up with? damn, that's sad

im sure there are plenty of girls who would want to date you because of your horror fixation
