Advantages: good old slahser flick Disadvantages: to over top strength wise
this is a slasher film that is slightly far fetched. there are two 30 second cameos by Robert England (Nightmatr on Elm street) and (Tony Todd, Candyman). these are included to make you by the film.
Some young teenagers have gone to the carnival but one of them is getting over his girlfriend dumping him, and decides to go on the haunted swamp tour. The ghost is an ugly creature owing a lot to the elephant man. He was so ugly as a kid that his dad kept him the house, and the other kids would taunt him to get a look at him. then one halloween the kids set the house on fire to make him come out to get a glimpse. He is trapped inside and his dad tries to break his door down with an hatchet and accidsentally whacks him in the head and kills him. His dad just sat in the house for twenty years and waited to die. Now the sons ghost walks around ...

Book Summary...
During the summer whilst the successful actor Molly Fox is on holiday in New York, she loans her Dublin home to her playwright friend (and narrator) so that she might start writing her new play. It is the longest day of the year as well as it being her friend Molly?s birthday, and the playwright is finding it increasingly difficult to find her inspiration and instead turns her attention to her own life, reflecting on her past and her relationship with Molly and their mutual friend Andrew.
Several questions are addressed throughout the novel through the playwrights (who is never named) reflections; how have her relationships with her friends developed over the years? What is the distinction between a good actor and a great one? And why does Molly Fox never celebrate her birthday?
My Thoughts ...
Advantages: Pretty face, well made, not too noisy Disadvantages: none
My 3-year-old daughter loves dolls. She likes changing them, feeding them, cuddling them and putting them to bed. She already has baby Annabell but this Christmas I decided to get her Molly.
Molly is a doll from the Zapf Creation range. Zapf Creation is a doll manufacturer also responsible for Baby Born, it’s best selling doll, Baby Annabell, Chou Chou and Maggie Raggies.
Max and Rosa Zapf established Zapf Creation in Rodental, Germany in 1932. These first dolls were made of papier-mâché by Rosa Zapf and women in and around Rodental and then Max Zapf would go out and about selling them.
In 1958 Brigitte and Willi Zapf, second generation of the Zapf family, expanded the business to include the European markets. In the 1960’s Zapf Creation produced the first dolls made of plastic instead of celluloid.
In 1991 ...

Album Notes
The South will Rise Again. Right out the gate, the southern fried rock phoenix, Molly Hatchet, soars into the dark clouds of adversity with this, their third album, BEATIN' THE ODDS. The title track crashes out of the back of the garage, sending the chickens flying and puts it into high gear with the country-slick-funk-rock that knows no end. You don't need a weatherman to let you know what the time is - how's the weather... It's raining electric pitchforks that have no mercy, Hallelujah. The aptly named album was the result of Hatchet's O.G., Danny Joe Brown's departure (diagnosed with Diabetes), and it brandishes the mark of frontman Jimmy Farrar on the back-end of the band's famous almost-heavy metal three-guitar attack. When they get it together, that stuff can strip paint of the walls better than moonshine in the mountains. Beyond the serious Southern bounce they sear into the music, they also get serious on a few issues that stand the test of time. 'Dead And Gone' addresses the fatal attraction of heroin and 'Poison Pen' unfurls a Rebel flag rising up against the power that journalists and media possess (delivered with the same angle that Johnny Rotten & The Sex Pistols did on 'I Wanna Be Me'). One may wonder what's hiding behind that gothic Frank Frazzetta album cover... A sleek and sharp 9-wheeled truck ready to plow some new terrain in your brain; hungry audiences wanting some of that mmm-mmm fat-drenched tasty mix of Hatchet swimming in the thick gravy are gonna be satisfied.
