One movie that I think really displays a person dying is when Rocky’s trainer Micky dies in Rocky III.
It’s so realistic it gave me goosebumps!
Please talk about the horror movie Phantasm, which is centered around mortuaries, cemeteries, and masoleums.

“john lies somwhere else.”
He’s giving Mortician James Marsden and I’m loving every minute of it.
Trump does not deserve a salute.
