ACTOR BILL PULLMAN'S SON BUSTED WITH MOONSHINE!

I know people still make a little "Shine" in the hills of Kentucky and other area in the south, but I didn't know it was popular with celebrity kids! Actor BILL PULLMAN'S kid drinks the MOONSHINE!?!

Bill Pullman is an actor, for those of you who don't immediately recognize his name. He played the president in "Independence Day" . . . and the guy SANDRA BULLOCK falls for in "While You Were Sleeping".

On Monday night, Bill's 19-year-old son, JACK PULLMAN, was arrested in Asheville, North Carolina for getting smashed on shine. (!!!)

Pullman and a 19-year-old friend were pulled over and arrested on charges of underage drinking, possession of moonshine, resisting police and the rather serious-sounding charge of assaulting a government official.

Pullman and his friend go to school at nearby Warren Wilson College.

They were released on Tuesday. There's been no comment yet from Bill Pullman's camp.

Scariest Movies Ever

List of the most frightening horror movies ever made from FRANKS REEL REVIEWS

1. The Shining - Numerous memorable scenes come to mind, (redrum, all work and no play, man in the bunny suit) - but they all add up to make the scariest movie of all time.

2. Silence of the Lambs - The most visceral fear comes from one's own mind, and this one is the king of the psychological thrillers.

3. Se7en - So disturbing to the psyche it has its own rating category on Reel Reviews. I wonder if FedEx would really make that delivery!

4. King Kong (1930) - Despite the flickering gorilla fur, this one frightened a whole generation of new moviegoers.


5. Psycho - The most prominent representative of the genius of Hitchcock. Janet Leigh's shower scene is one of the most frightening scenes ever filmed for a movie.

6. The Ring - A ringing phone scared me for days after seeing this one. A clean change of underwear anyone?

7. Halloween (1978) - So scary it spawned no fewer than 8 direct sequels, not to mention numerous acknowledgements in other Hollywood productions.

8. Frankenstein (1931) - Combines a beautifully simplistic tale with the potent topic of man vs. nature to create a horrific fairy-tale that continues to mesmerize more than seven decades after its release


9. The Hills Have Eyes (2006) - with the threat of nuclear disaster and its effects on humans largely forgotten, how successful would a remake featuring villains mutated by radioactive fallout play to today's generation of horror fans? Well, it worked back then and it works today.

10. Carrie (1976) - Mixes telekinetic powers with our innate fear of being ridiculed to create a classic horror masterpiece.

11. Bad Ronald (1974) - An ABC, made-for-TV movie. The premise alone is the star of the show and is guaranteed to keep you awake for a few nights. Difficult to watch however, as it's not yet out on DVD, but you can pick up a copy here.

12. Jaws (1975) - Forced a whole generation to stay out of the water. Is it safe to go back yet?

13. Night of the Living Dead (1968) - The Royal King Father of all zombie movies. That reminds me, I'm hungry!

14. Exorcist (1973) - Made an entire generation of filmgoers never order split pea soup again!

15. The Birds (1963) - The film's tagline alone says it all: "Suspense and Shock Beyond Anything You Have Seen or Imagined!" Ooooo, scary!

16. The Blair Witch Project (1999) - Although it turned out to be the biggest sham in filmmaking history, it was scary nonetheless.

17. The Changeling (1980) - I'll never see a wheelchair the same again!

18. Friday the 13th (1980) - Must be scarier than Halloween because it spawned more sequels!

19. Signs (2002) - Crop circles, Shyamalan and Aliens, Oh My!

20. Alien (1979) - Now I get extremely concerned every time I have indigestion.

21. The Descent (2005) - The translucent-skinned humanoids resemble a creepy cross between Gollum, Spock, and Vladislaus Dracula's naked, flying-monkey devil-brides featured in Van Helsing. A descent into madness in more ways than one.

22. The Devil's Rejects (2005) - Sequel to House of 1000 Corpses. One of the few instances of a sequel surpassing the original. Also contains some of the best one-liners in a horror movie.

23. A Clockwork Orange (1971) - Many don't classify it as a horror movie per se, but it's terrifying nonetheless. Kubrick's best movie?

24. Videodrome (1983) - Cronenberg horror that relates the troubles of society to television. A visionary?

25. The Thing a.k.a John Carpenter's The Thing (1982) - This remake of the 1951 original was largely dismissed by critics and audiences when it first came out, probably because Spielberg's E.T. had just been released two weeks prior. A great example of how characters should be written in horror movies.

26. Quarantine (2008) - Undoubtedly, one-hour martinizers and upholstery cleaning companies around the world will make a fortune laundering soiled trousers and wet theater seats.

IS IT OFFENSIVE TO PUT UP SIGNS WELCOMING HOME YOUR DAUGHTER FROM IRAQ???

I have a hard time wrapping my head around this one! We should be thanking each and every member of the military for their service to our country...instead stuff like this is happening.

Recently, Lauren Boitet returned home to Orange Park, Florida (--in the northern part of the state, just south of Jacksonville), after finishing a 15-month tour of duty in Iraq.

So, to welcome Lauren home, her family decided to put up a few signs, balloons, flags and other decorations. Fair enough, right?

But shortly after the Boitets put up the decorations, they were taken down . . . by members of the homeowners association. Why?

Because according to the Pace Island Homeowner Association handbook, decorations of any kind . . . are against the rules.

And even though other members of the association have been allowed to put up decorations in the past . . . certain members of the homeowners association were worried the decorations would be seen as an endorsement of the war in Iraq.

To make sure that didn't happen . . . the decorations were taken down.

THE GEEK IN ME LOVES THIS!

There's a guy from Hawaii named Won Park who makes origami versions of "Star Wars" and "Star Trek" spaceships . . . out of dollar bills.

A GUY IN CALIFORNIA HAS A SARAH PALIN DUMMY IN HIS HALLOWEEN DISPLAY . . . HANGING FROM A TREE IN A NOOSE?




There are only a few days separating Halloween and the presidential election . . . so it makes sense that some people would choose to give their Halloween decorations a political theme. But is it taking it too far to decorate your house for Halloween . . . by hanging a candidate in effigy?

I ask because there's a guy in Los Angeles named Chad Michael Morisette who's decorated his house for Halloween . . . by hanging a mannequin dressed like SARAH PALIN from a noose.

And on top of Chad's house, there's another mannequin, which resembles JOHN MCCAIN . . . emerging from a flaming chimney.




Anyway, Chad says he knows some people will be offended by his decorations, but he thinks the effigy should be, quote, "seen as art . . . It's Halloween, it's time to be scary it's time to be spooky".

Remember the "Terry Tate Office Linebacker" commercials for Reebok a few years ago?

Then you'll appreciate "The Return of Terry Tate," which takes on SARAH PALIN.

The best man on the far right gets weak in the knees, then hilariously slams onto the church floor. He makes a very funny and loud thud on the ground.

Political Halloween Masks For Free!


Are you looking for a cheap, politically-themed Halloween costume that will take all of two minutes to throw together? If so . . . you're in luck.

I found a website where you can download and print out paper masks of JOHN and CINDY MCCAIN, SARAH PALIN and JOE LIEBERMAN . . . among others.
These would be perfect for "Steve King's Fright Night Part 2" at Ameristar...if you're REALLY lazy!

Cool Pumpkins!

If you thought that KISS had already put out a KISS version of every kind of toy and novelty imaginable . . . there was one they missed: KISS Mr. Potato Head dolls.

Of course, that was until this past weekend . . . when they announced that KISS Mr. Potato Heads ARE in development. They're expected to be ready by March of next year.
