"21-10-01 AMAZON PRIME/REWATCH OLDIES-STILL GOODIES Great set-up of how everyone explains how they know Muffy on the dock. OMG - I love the painting with the eyes and then they see that it's a cat clock with moving eyes. WAYYYYYY back... had one of those in black & white. Immediately think of seeing if Amazon has one lol This movie continues on the funny, pranky, friends-get-together movie until people start dying. I think these types of movies (which I generally enjoy) live or die on how good"

"April 1 "Have a nice party." "Nice? It's gotta be better than nice. It's gotta be bloody unforgettable."
