...they made a movie out of Killing Mr Griffin?!

Dude, if they were going to rape Lois Duncan, couldn't we have gotten Stranger With My Face or Summer of Fear? Why go for the mediocrity of I Know What You Did Last Summer or Killing Mr G???

(and it has a power ranger and Dawson's girlfriend in it, too. huh)

Also, it's probably good I never read the book because I would have totally rooted for the teacher.

*distracted* Sam in leather pants.

Now that last bit, yes, I understand the distractive quality of Sam in leather. Re: NIGHTWALKERS


...I'm disturbed thinking back on the fact that I fic'd her as a mermaid...

If "Killing Mrs. Tingle" is the movie they made from it, I definitely would have rooted for the teacher. Helen Mirren's a hottie.

Teaching Mrs. Tingle... Damn, I think it's even the same author.

Don't remember. But there's a rash of those 'psychotic teacher gets his/hers' types out there... Where the teacher is actually just trying to make them, y'know, learn.

'cause, gosh, learning is HARD.

Ah, right, "Killing Mrs. Tingle" was the working title, and they had to change it, cuz, you know, the impressionable kids might, uh... realize it was about killing a teacher or something.

Saw Teaching Mrs Tingle (which is what they renamed it, because I think the high school shootings happened). Thought it was cool, but then I was about 12 or something. Probably older but *shrug*

Mmm... Sam in leather. *feels so left out for not having seen Nightwalkers*

nah. Different book (and movie).

That one had the FABulous Helen Mirren in it (not that I watched it).

Didn't really watch Mr. Griffin, either, but it was still scary.

And. Dude! How can you not have seen Sam in leather??

Oooh, ok. *is intrigued*

She was probably the best part in that movie... I think she was.

Ahhh, right.

*sniffle* Coz Australian programming sucks!
