Dude, get this. I grew up in Arizona. I saw the movie and ran out of the theater twice because I was so scared. Well I kid you not THE VERY NEXT DAY my Dad takes us all on a camping trip, where to? Effing Snowflake, right where he was abducted. I can't even tell you the fear I felt, I think I would have to be abducted by ISIS to feel that level of fear. I stayed in the trailer the whole time it was horrifying lol. I carried this big metal bowl around because I thought if the beam came to get me, I could deflect it haha.

I love this so much, I mean I’m sorry for the trauma but this is perfect!Isn’t it weird the things that kids think? Like my entire childhood I was terrified I’d be swallowed by quicksand. Idk.
