      Properly butchered meat isn't bloody, the red liquid in packages is more of a protein rich liquid that comes from the damaged cells. Therefore, the "blood" they used wouldn't likely attract the bloodsucking head.
    • Quotes

      Cassie: The Evil Thing is a gruesome beast./On living flesh, it loves to feast./It's a two-headed thing whom you don't wish to greet... /One head sucks your blood, one head chews your meat./It carries its babies in slimy eggs on its back./The babies are hungry when they hatch for a snack,/so the Evil Thing traps some horrid victim alive,/for the babies to eat when their birthdays arrive,/but don't worry, don't cry, please don't have a fit... /The Evil Thing is not real unless you think about it./Remember, don't think about it...

    Great family Halloween movie...
    This movie is so very suited for Halloween, especially if you are a kid, teenager or if you got a family with kids. The movie is just the right amount of scary and thrilling to be great for family entertainment for the most spooky of Halloween eves.

    From the creator of Goosebumps, R. L. Stine, comes the thrilling tale of 13-year old Cassie who is stuck with her younger brother Max on Halloween. Being fed up with her brother and his mishaps, Cassie decides to tell him a scary story from a book that she acquired from a very odd Halloween store. Being spooked out of his mind, Max's imagination runs rampart, but the Evil Thing is not only a thing of his imagination.

    The acting in "The Haunting Hour: Don't Think About It" was really great, and the actors/actresses really brought the story to life on the screen. Emily Osment (playing Cassie) really carried the movie. Now, not being overly familiar with Hannah Montana, then I had no pre-assumed view of her roles. So for me, she was doing a great job in this particular family movie.

    "The Haunting Hour: Don't Think About It" tells a really good story that will keep the entire family entertained from start till end.

    The creature in the movie was great as well. Of course, it wasn't super CGI effects like in those blockbuster Hollywood movies, but still, the creature looked nice and was nicely made. It worked well enough for this kind of family movie.

    I am sure that this movie will go well with most viewers, especially young teens and families. If you got 1 hour and 23 minutes to spare on Halloween, then "The Haunting Hour: Don't Think About It" is well worth watching, be it alone or with your family.
