Okay, has anyone ever noticed how Jackie Earle Haley is always playing the creepy guy? Anybody? Is it just me? I mean, besides that cute little Bad News Bears kid, he's played some really freaky dudes. Take a minute and think about it. Freddie Krueger. Creepy dude. Kills you in your sleep. That guy from Little Children. Very creepy dude. Guerrero. Also very creepy, and fond of torture. Kind of disconcerting. Rorschach from Watchmen. Freaks me out. That Shutter Island inmate who I think was just in that guy's head. FREAKED ME THE FREAK OUT. Numerous other roles. He always plays that guy, it seems, who you wouldn't want to a) be alone in a room with; b) be alone in a house with; or c) be alone with in any situation. Especially one involving sharp things and locked doors. Where no one can hear you scream. He's a really great actor. He's probably a great guy who just gets stuck playing the neighborhood weirdo creepy dude all the time. I'd love to meet him. He's probably really nice and funny. He's probably the nicest guy on the whole durn planet. I'm just pointing it out....Again, probably really nice and friendly guy. Just...think about it.
One, two, Freddy's comin' for you; three, four, lock your door...
