It’s Friday the 13th tomorrow. It seems like a good day to stay home and watch a horror movie. I’m headed to a screening of a horror film in a cemetery tomorrow evening. Seriously disturbing. What are you up to?
If you haven’t made plans, you might want to check out The Pact. It’s a horror movie from director Nicholas McCarthy that has garnered decent but not stellar reviews from movie critics. Here’s the New York Times review and the trailer in order to help you decide:

Friday the 13th will not reappear for 14 months. The next Friday the 13th is September 13th, 2013. So all you have to do is survive the day tomorrow. Good luck!
