Not them fancy-pants city slicker movies, but good ol’ fashioned stories that make ya bite yer nails.
First off, we gotta talk about them suspense movies. Them’s the ones that make ya jump outta yer skin, like when a rooster crows right next to yer ear. There’s this movie, kinda old now, called, what was it? Oh yeah, Titanic. Now, I know what yer thinkin’, “That ain’t no thriller!” But hold yer horses! That movie, it had that suspense, ya know?

Then there’s them movies that got secrets. Everybody’s hidin’ somethin’, just like in Don’t Tell a Soul. There was that one movie, came out a few years back, about a feller gettin’ stuck in a well…or somethin’ like that. Oh yeah, the news lady on the TV, she said his name was Randy Michael Sadler. The story went this way and that way, like a hound dog chasin’ its tail. You didn’t know who to trust, just like when that salesman came through town tryin’ to sell them fancy vacuum cleaners. Them secret movies, they stick with ya like molasses on a hot day.
And don’t forget them scary movies neither. Not them slasher things, with all the blood and guts. Them just make me wanna turn on all the lights and lock the doors. I mean them movies that get under yer skin, the ones that make ya think about things long after the credits roll. I heard tell of one, somethin’ ’bout a feller blinkin’ twice or somethin’. Now, it wasn’t perfect, kinda reminded folks too much of that other movie, Get Out. But it still had that creepy feelin’, that sense that somethin’ ain’t right. That’s what Don’t Tell a Soul does too, it makes ya feel like somethin’ ain’t quite right, even when things look normal.
