Rant: Alien Trilogy
Rod: There you go again, making me sound like a coward.
Barry: I didn’t say that. I said you are afraid of scary aliens and monsters.
Rod: Okay, name me a few and I’ll tell you if I am scared of not.
Barry: Okay…….Frankenstein.
Rod: Naw….he was too fake and had too many used parts.
Barry: The Mummy.
Rod: Not really….he was all wrapped up in himself.
Barry: Terminator.
Rod: Now, that was scary, especially the one in the second movie that was liquid metal.
Barry: I’ll have to agree with you there…….Okay, how about Freddie Krueger?
Rod: UGH!!! Just his name gives me the creeps!
Barry: Okay…..Jason.

Rod: He’s scary, but his mom wasn’t in the new movie. You know, I think I’ve seen her somewhere before.
Barry: How about Predator?
Rod: Real scary to look at, and twice as scary to see in person!
Barry: You’ve seen it in person?
Rod: Yeah! Remember that horror convention we went to?
Barry: UGH! Now I do and I wish I didn’t……How about the Cryptkeeper?
Rod: He’s not scary! Anyone with 20/200 vision can tell he’s just a puppet.
Barry: Okay, got a couple more……The Hunchback.
Rod: <shudders> That’s a scary one….after the next one, no more. Okay?
Barry: Okay…..Gossamer.
Rod: Who’s Gossamer?
Barry: Remember the red haired monster in the Bugs Bunny…..
(WHOOSH)
Barry: Rod! Get out from behind the couch!
Rod: Not till you promise not to mention that THING again.
Barry: I rest my case.
