Look at the young Anthony Hopkins and Ann-Margret in this thriller.

That was an excellent movie. I remember seeing it at the theaters when it came out.

Thanks Scorpio...was thinking the same thing, that I hadn't seen it posted.

Every morning I post my Sleuth postulation for the day, usually before 7:00 am, stay tuned tomorrow for my next prediction!

Hope everyone has a GRAND Halloween!

Watch out for the little ones!

The worst Halloween treats you can eat

What would Halloween be without sweet treats and junk food? But some goodies are more nightmarish for your health than others. Here are the worst Halloween treats you can eat—and some healthier alternatives By Astrid Van Den Broek

Tricky treats

When your little ones come home with a bag full of delicious goodies, it’s tough to resist swiping a candy bar here and a bag of chips there. While we would never suggest that you miss out on all the Halloween fun, there are smarter choices to be made when it comes to snacking on some ghoulish goodies. With the help of a registered dietitian, we determined which Halloween candies are the absolute worst, and which ones may make for smarter spurges.

Butterfinger

One bar: 280 calories and 10 g fat, including 5 g saturated fat.

“Hydrogenated fat is the absolute worst offender, the kind you’d find in bars like these,” says Mary Bamford, a Toronto-based registered dietitian. Hydrogenated oils boost your chances of developing chronic diseases such as heart disease. Read the ingredient labels on chocolate bars and keep an eye out for those that list hydrogenated oil as a major ingredient. Butterfingers for example contain hydrogenated palm kernel oil, while Aero bars and Smarties don’t list this ingredient.

Tootsie rolls

One serving (approximately six pieces): 140 calories, 3 g fat, including .5 g saturated fat of fat

While Tootsie Rolls tend to be lower in calories than other types of candies. “But I’d recommend staying away from sweets with the trans fats in them such as Tootsie Rolls,” notes Bamford. One serving of Tootsie Rolls contains 1 g trans fat

Chips

One serving of Old Dutch Regular flavour RipL Chips (approximately 25 chips): 260 calories and 14 g fat, including 1 g saturated fat

If you are going to indulge in chips this Halloween, be aware that these deep-fried wonders are often packed with fat and sodium, which is partly why they’re so tasty. Limit yourself to one serving or less and choose regular chips over the flavoured kind (a serving of Old Dutch RipL Regular chips contains 260 mg of sodium, while the brand’s Smokey BBQ variety contains 460 mg.)

Alternatively, reach for baked chips to shave off some fat and calories. Old Dutch’s Original flavour baked chips contain 190 calories and 2.5 g fat for 25 chips.

Cheese snacks

One serving of Humpty Dumpty Cheese Sticks (approximately 50 g): 290 calories and 21 g fat, including 2 g saturated fat.

These greasy, melt-in-your-mouth snacks are usually packed with sodium and fat (not to mention that they turn your hands a shade of orange that can’t be found in nature). Add to that the fact that they’re highly addictive and you’ve got a real Halloween nightmare on your hands. Rather than tearing into these orangey things, satisfy a salt craving with a serving of baked or corn chips.

[Babygirl1]

Low-quality chocolates

You remember those adorable little ghost-shaped chocolates that fill many a trick-or-treater’s bag. You can’t decipher where they came from, but they’re handed out every year. The problem is that these little ghosties tend to be made from low-quality, tasteless chocolate, which could lead you to overeat because they don’t satisfy. What’s more, the individually wrapped candies don’t usually list ingredients, so it’s hard to know exactly what you and your little ghouls are eating.

Instead of filling up on these candies, toss them in favour of the higher-quality goodies in your bag. Bamford recommends higher-quality individual chocolates, such as the Lindt brand (one Lindt truffle ball contains 70 calories and 6g of fat). “[They] are reasonably priced and are a more wholesome chocolate,” she says.

[Babygirl1]

Very sticky candy

Laffy Taffy, caramel apples and those unnamed orange wrapped candies that come out on Halloween year after year are sticky enough to potentially harm your teeth and damage dental work. Sticky candies also hang around on your teeth and may lead to cavities. Instead, opt for quicker dissolving candies such as Pop Rocks or lollipops.


Personally I just eat the lot ....
