Flashbacks

I watched the movie WAR OF THE WORLDS last night, and it brought back a flood of memories.

I remember watching the earlier version the first time around 1978-79 or thereabouts, while about 7 yrs old in Pune. It creeped me out then and it creeped me out now.

I think it was the serpentine things that come looking around for human survivors.

Flashback to age 7-8 again, and I had a high fever one night in the Infirmary, and a nightmare which involved me being a stadium surrounded by a grill with plants etc, which are creepers vines that have reached out and eaten my acomplices who were with me but a few minutes ago.

That dream I remember to this day, and it still freaks me out !!

Strangely, around the same time [ present day ] some creepy ad film maker has used the similar concept for CHANTILLI wines where thre grape vines reach out and suck up a rooster alive.
[ Loves food as much as you... ]

Creepy and spooky !

Rating 7/10
