It was; years ago... One more film that must've gotten lost in transition...

Rebecca Harrell was really cute [long red hair and freckles ] but the story was SOO damn downbeat.. And not in a tearjerker sort of way, but a 'screw-the-wrists-and-just-slit-your-freakin'-throat' sorta way...

Still, thanks for bringing it back to our attention! Merry Christmas!!


kev.

One of those birds looked like Ariana Richards

Yep, that pretty much describes most family Christmas movies....

You'll probably end up grateful for Downbeat Stories & Standard Christmas Fayre after my next seasonal offering................I'm summoning up the courage to release it!

Looking forward to it, loverboy. After Black Christmas, anything else would be an improvement.

btw. what's with the weird spelling 'fayre'? You going medieval on us? Perhaps a bump on the head like the old guy in Treasure Island Kids?

Well I could come out with some old claptrap about going back to my medieval roots but I guess I've simply been rumbled by the spelling & punctuation police!
........and you really WILL think I've banged my head & lost the plot with my next release I promise you! ....coming later!

Come on, put me out of my misery. My eMule is just sitting idle; only uploading, nothing downloading.
