OK, I'll accept snakes, bats and spiders as fine, but surely there is some creepy/crawly that makes you panic? The chestbusters in Alien??
No, not the chestbusters, but the creepy, seaweedy kid in The Ring would be freaky. That's something I'd avoid.

From a review in the Globe & Mail: A Hawaiian martial arts syndicate boss kills a lawyer who hopes to put him away for good. A surfer dude, Sean (Nathan Phillips) oversees the murder. Bad, unsmiling guys are dispatched to rub him out. FBI agent Flynn intervenes, rushing Sean onto a plane for L.A. to testify. The panicking syndicate boss then slips a jungle load of poisonous snakes onto the plane about the time a conveyor belt of colourful, antic passengers arrive for boarding — a group that includes a superstar rapper and a Barbie Doll princess carrying a pwecious widow doggie we know won't make it past the second reel. There is also a capable, wisecracking stewardess (Julianna Margulies), and, what a surprise, a steward who appears to be doing a Paul Lynde impersonation.

I dunno about that. After a half hour or so, I can see this taxing the SSSSSSS out of me.

I'd rather be atop the foothills than beneath them.
Tell us something.: I've picked up the tinwhistle again after several years, and have recently purchased a Chieftain v5 from Kerry Whistles that I cannot wait to get (why can't we beam stuff yet, come on Captain Kirk, get me my Low D!)

That was the only thing that woke me up during that awfully boring movie. Emm, I'd be willing to bet you'd be creeped out by Eraserhead in black spandex and dayglow slippers... call it a hunch.

...O.K., now I have "the squirts". You are a bad man, Tyler. A very bad man.
Straight down to the bone!
