"Which one is it" he asks

"The Bloody Ax," she answers

Jerry thinks about it for a second, "Hmm… doesn't it sound a bit weird"

"Of course not, silly It seems like an amazing movie We must watch it," Emma laughs at him

"Well, if you say so Let's go for it"

2 hours later, Jerry is sitting in the movie theater, screaming 5 minutes later he is running to
the bathroom to throw up

"Oh my god, Emma… I didn't know this is what you meant when you said 'amazing' I don't
think I can watch a movie like this again"

"It's ok, Jerry" she says "I guess you don't like horror movies as much as I do"

A few days later, Jerry comes home

"Emma" he calls, "Listen You have to come with me to the movies There is this fantastic
new movie We must watch it"

running away in terror

"That's right," Emma agrees "What are we going to do Will we ever go to the movies
together again"

Jerry thinks about it for a moment and then answers: "I guess we would have to wait for
a "horror love story" You know, a boy meets a girl, they fall in love, and then she eats
him…"
