Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2502 KP) rated Terror On Kamikaze Run (Accidental Detectives, #10) in Books

Mar 9, 2018

When Ricky and his friends are offered a week at a ski resort in Colorado, it seems too good to pass up. They are supposed to be watching out for something odd that might be happening in the lodge, but they don’t know what might be wrong. Their first night there, a fire breaks out in the room where they are staying. Then they see the ghost of a woman who died in the area years ago. What is going on?

As readers, we get to strap in for another fun mystery. The plot is strong again, giving us twists and good clues before we reach the logical ending. The characters are so much fun and better than many we see in middle grade novels. Plus the humor sprinkled throughout adds a nice touch. There are some Christian themes woven into the novel as well, but all without preaching at us once.

The Terror Train

This movie is actually good, its scary, horrorfying, terrorfying, has comedy, is thrilling, and of course Jamie Lee Curtis is in it, the scream queen of all scream queens.

The Plot: During a hazing, a fraternity of pre-med students has a particularly sinister prank in store for one their more timid pledges (Derek MacKinnon). With the help of a coed, Alana Maxwell (Jamie Lee Curtis), they pull off the prank so well that the pledge needs to be institutionalized as a result. After several years pass and people forget the incident, those involved with the prank are ready to celebrate their graduation by having a costume party on a train, but they haven't escaped their past yet.

It also takes place on New Years Eve, so its a horror movie that takes place on holiday. A horror movie that is surrounding around a holiday. Its also director by Roger Spottiswoode. He directed "Under Fire", "The Best of Times", "Turner & Hooch", "Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot", "Tomorrow Never Dies" and "The 6th Day".

A good horror movie to watch.
