What Lies Under The Stairs
The People Under The Stairs- is a very underrated movie. Its one of wes best work. Its thrilling, scary and horrorfying.

The Plot: When young Fool (Brandon Adams) breaks into the home of his family's greedy and uncaring landlords, he discovers a disturbing scenario where incestuous adult siblings have mutilated a number of boys and kept them imprisoned under stairs in their large, creepy house. As Fool attempts to flee before the psychopaths can catch him, he meets their daughter, Alice (A.J. Langer), who has been spared any extreme discipline by her deranged parents. Can Fool and Alice escape before it's too late?

Craven has stated that The People Under the Stairs was partially inspired by a news story from the late 1970s, in which two burglars broke into a Los Angeles household, inadvertently causing the police to discover two children who had been locked away by their parents.

Its a really good movie.

A love story so profound, it's what all teenage girls wish for in a relationship. Even some adult couples don't reach Rune and Poppy's level of unyielding love and devotion. A Thousand Boy Kisses made me cry no less than 3 times in just the first 153 pages and almost nonstop for the final 3 or 4 chapters. Poppy is so full of life, it's hard to imagine how she can be so optimistic, but it's a view everyone should strive to have. Rune is understandably moody and sullen, but it was amazing to watch how love changed his heart. From the moment they met to their final reunion, I watched in awe at their journey. I read, enraptured, from beautiful beginning to beautiful end. And my heart almost burst.

**SPOILER ALERT**
There's only one thing I wish was different. I wish Tillie had clarified WHY Rune had finally "come home". 27 is awful young, I just wish I knew what sent him there.
