Sleep Kills

 Day 277


August 2nd, 2024


“It's not the sleep that is killing us; it's our dreams.”


One of the most ineffective lines in the film occurs when Lori states the obvious to Freddy while completely ignoring Jason's looming threat. It's pretty clear that it's not a groundbreaking insight if someone is determined to harm you in the dream world.


That line reminds me of the Billy Madison rant near the end of that film. It made absolutely no sense, and we all are a bit dumber for hearing it.

  Day 310 September 4th, 2024 As a child, I believe that my experience of being frightened by a My Buddy doll is what has instilled in me a deep appreciation for Chucky. It's a memory that has both positive and negative aspects, and over time, I've come to value its impact on my life. Since 1988, I've held onto a vivid memory.

However, after 300 days, I found it necessary to diversify and acknowledge that I've also dedicated a significant amount of time to watching Child's Play.

On another note, I'm still making progress with listening to the book. This will certainly help me when it comes to reading the final four scripts, as I'll have a better understanding of the background and context.
