agree - firm favourite from when I was young.

They don't make them like that anymore

BellaBear · 07/10/2007 18:52

love the film, but just wanted to say - The Masked PosTERROR, every time I see your name I think it says The Masked POSTERIOR. I just felt I had to tell you.

BellaBear · 07/10/2007 18:53

i remember really fancying River Phoenix in that film

zippitippitoes · 07/10/2007 18:53

ahhh BellaBear - worry not, you are not alone and infact I have been themaskedposterior at one time! I am also sometimes seen as themashedpotato - but hey, there you go...

(I fancied River in that film too!!)

is that the Stephen King boys finding dead body one?

TheMaskedPosTERROR · 07/10/2007 19:00

That's the one Twig

I like the name btw

BellaBear · 07/10/2007 19:02

Oh, glad I mentioned it then!

I quite enjoyed the short story as well - it's from a book of four and they have all been made into films. The Shawshank Redemption was another of the stories.

TwigorTreat · 07/10/2007 19:02

thank you

haven't seen the movie, but judging by the book I wouldn't let DS see it and he's 6.8.. what age are you thinking of?

TheMaskedPosTERROR · 07/10/2007 19:05

ahhh perhaps not - the dss have watched it when they were 12 and 14.

zippitippitoes · 07/10/2007 19:05

oh no that little

it depends

about 10 or so depending how liberal you are

in which case probably make it 12 lol

another excuse to put this clip on

OP posts:
TwigorTreat · 07/10/2007 19:07

in which case, yes I shall bear it in mind

zippitippitoes · 07/10/2007 19:07
