“If I'm really honest, I'm not a huge fan of scary films. I remember being a teenager, and people getting out like Halloween [1978] or Saw [2004], and watching them, and I'd kind of just stare at the television logo and blur my eyes and pretend I was watching but I wasn't because I just found that I would take the movie home with me. I can scare myself like a pro.” PeopleIfsKindI CanHomeEyeRememberFilmFoundSawsFansHonestTelevisionHugeScaryTeenagerStaringScareHalloweenBlurLogosBeing A Teenager Author:Imogen Poots
