Just watched Cujo!! Yes, Cujo, the one they talk about in F.R.I.E.N.D.S, the movie adaptation of the Stephen King book “Cujo”. It was amazing! I watched it all by myself. It’s 2:00 am and I watched Cujo, all by myself. Consider it boasting, call me immodest but I did it!
One of the scariest movies I’ve seen. Well I started the movie, expecting so much, because I’ve watched and read “The Shining” by Stephen King himself. So I, kind of, knew the level of fear and horror the movie was going to instill in me.
Me and my friend, both have been wanting to see this movie ever since we first heard so much fuss about it on FRIENDS. And that is exactly how I came to watch this movie.
****Spoiler Alert****
Well the movie is about a rabid dog who, terrorizes a village in America. This, you might have already read from the next tab in your browser, when you were searching for “Cujo”. But what you don’t know is that the film goes on to trap a mother and her child in a car, with this rabid dog waiting patiently for its prey. The entire film is a thriller, a nail-biter movie, if you will. The unexpected twist in the end, when you think the movie is over was pretty good but unnecessary, but again that is my opinion.
So all-in-all a wonderful movie, preferably to be seen in presence of company, and at night (just for the heck of it). I’m not a huge fan of horror movies, because they are usually just corny gore with lots of porn. But not this one. Just like any other Stephen King novel, this one also has stood out in its own manner.
Bottom-line : Guys on their first couples’ movie night, if you want your girl clinging on to you for dear life, not per say, this is the movie for you.
Semi Coherent Ramblings and such... 
OMG I watched Cujo for the exact same reason – cos they talk bout it in Friends!
And I watched it all by myself in the middle of the night too! And thats huge cos I got scared just by watchin 4 seconds of the trailor of Paranormal Activity.
Cujo had been avoiding my dog for a whole week. 🙂
Nice post 🙂 Glad to know someone shares the same thought as me on Cujo.

That is so not true! I hear people saying and I quote “I liked that film sooo much because of Deepika Padukone or *insert favorite actor here*” They are film-goers or admirers (for the lack of a better word). Critics are those who analyse films based on the story, acting, maybe soundtrack even, not by how good Katrina looks or the length of the strips of clothes they wear or the number of abs visible.

Yeah I guess so, but the main problem in writing a review is you have to be systematic. You can not just ramble on about the movie or give away spoilers, like you do when you just post about a movie. That’s why I refrain myself from writing reviews. Well, if my post on Cujo could pass as a review, I would be more than happy to continue writing ‘reviews’.

Ooooooooooh Cujo…I had totally forgotten that I’m still commenting on the Cujo post.. Hey yeah, Thats a movie review! Of sorts. So yeah, write more movie reviews. It seems to be something close to your heart.

Yeah, when you date your best friend, he becomes your boyfriend. The next in line gets the title of best friend. Preferably (to the boyfriend of course) the new best friend should be of the same sex as you are.

Well the second best friend would be the one whom you adore/admire the most after your best friend. The third wheel, if you might. Who knows, some people are best friend material, while some people are boyfriend/girlfriend material.
You seriously have no clue what “friend zone” is. It’s exactly what it sounds like. You like someone very much and would do anything to be with them. But due to some ungodly, unforeseen circumstances, he/she decides that you are fit to be a friend and nothing more. All the internet jokes about the guy/girl looking all over for a boyfriend/girlfriend just like his/her bestfriend and the best friend (“or guy who is friend zoned”) says “I’m right here!”
