Spot the Movie Titles Contest No. 6: And the Winner Is...


Back on Friday, I posted Spot the Movie Titles Contest No. 6. The object was to guess how many titles were hidden within 16 bars of rhymes composed by yours truly. The person who gets closest to the actual number without going over shall be declared the winner. It's time to find out who that is.

Here is the verse, as it posted on Friday...

(purposely leaving out all capitalization)

on friday the 13th, a fright night, i heard a scream
was it a hellraiser outside or just bad dreams?
should i die before i wake pray my soul to take as i sleep
now prepared to deal with a night of the creeps
freaks, goblins, werewolves, and vampires
mary shelley’s frankenstein, all of the evil empire
from dusk til dawn the evil dead tried to get at me
even think i saw some paranormal activity
movement in darkness, heard the howling of petals on the wind
the strangers and the queen of the damned trying to get in
get out you monsters is what i’m screaming at these demons
they’re telling me you’re next, you’re gonna be bleeding
sinister and insidious so i pulled the covers up high
shut the blinds tight in case the hills have eyes
realized they were nightmares when I woke up damp
at twilight in the cabin in the woods at sleepaway camp


And now, here is the verse with the titles revealed...
