“You seen Readers Digest lately?
A sad shell of its former self.”
My parents started getting RD in the late 50s or 60s. I remember it being the first place I read about a horror movie, “Night of the Living Dead.” They were outraged at the scene where the little girl kills her mother and eats her. I was hooked.
My Jr Hi library had bound RDs from 1935 to 1959 (my 9th grade year) and I read them all during library/study period. How many thousands of jokes! Pardon, your slip is showing. Hundreds of articles that became part of my dumpster-like brain.
Oh. My. Gosh.
I remember that article.
It said NOTLD was pretty much the end of civilization as we knew it. It went beyond any of the bounds of decency and movies like that should be banned.
I was thinking about it when I wrote my earlier reply.
Funny how tame that movie seems now.
