Today I took my 9 year old granddaughter to see “Scary Movie†after reading Roger Ebert’s glowing 3-star review in our local paper and seeing the clever clips on TV. Less than half way into the movie I told Taylor “Let’s get out of here.†Thankfully she readily agreed. Why did I do this? “Scary Movie†is the most degenerate, filthy movie I have ever seen. Mind you, I’m not a prude (far from it), but this was a step below “Deep Throat!†The “scariest†thing about this movie was that the theater was filled with pre-teens, mostly girls, even though it was rated R (which I had neglected to notice and soon found out). I blame the theater for not enforcing the rating policy, but mostly I blame the producers who are allowed to spew this kind of filth for our children to watch (and, unfortunately, be influenced by). One of the Wayans, can’t (and don’t want to) remember was the producer and filled the screen with not only sexual visuals and dialogue, but blatant racism as well. This was another example of my interpretation of “Blackploitationâ€, where blacks can capitalize on the twisted mentality of the liberal (Democrat) wackos and wreak havoc on moral values unabated. Yes, and even with their blessing.I ask one question. Where in the hell are the parents (mothers) who don’t have the time to investigate the filth of these films and allow their children to attend them without adult supervision? Probably too busy marching for gun control and the like. Let me tell you, and please do not answer unless you have seen this movie, all the guns in the world cannot do as much harm to our society as allowing our children to be influenced by this kind of garbage! Not much shocks me, but I was ready to (and probably would have if not for my granddaughter) break into the projection room and destroy the reels. What the hell is wrong with our society? That’s more of a rhetorical question. I know what is wrong, and so do most of you. Liberalism allows despicable people the “right†to corrupt our children in the name of political correctness. Smoke in a bar? You are a criminal. Show BJs, sexual intercourse (f’ing to youse who don’t comprehend), racism, violence on the screen, and guess what? You are expressing your creative freedom. Bullshit!!!
What to do about it? The correct (and stupid) thing to do is boycott the theater. But, it is not us who are accomodating the film makers, it’s the children, and we (not me by the way) are too lazy and unconcerned (brainwashed?) to do anything about it. Whats left? Anyone out there remember the ‘60s??? Physical confrontation with those responsible to the point where thay cannot function. Interpretation: Hit ‘em where it hurts, in the pocketbook! Physically deny people entrance to the theaters - we did it back then, we can do it now. Believe me, it works. And the reasons then were not as important as they are now. Or has apathy become the “easy way out?â€
God help us. We may be incapable, or unwilling, of helping ourselves.

PS: The movie did not elicit much laughter, mostly groans of embarrassment from the viewers. Yet others will attend because people like Roger Ebert praise this shit. And responsible people remain silent.
