Don't move into a house where a horrific murder was committed.

I've learned that no one in Hollywood has ever folded laundry in their life.

If you're a teenager at summer camp, don't have sex. In fact, if your just a teenager, don't have sex. Oh heck, just take a vow of celibacy.

I grew up on Long Island. I think every teenager in the 80s drove past the Amityville horror house at least once.

The Amity town in Jaws is fake, but that movie scared a lot of people out of the water anyway!

Everybody knows by heart every random phone number they might ever need to dial. (This of course I learned from classic movies, made before there was speed dial, let alone mobiles. I don't remember anyone in any movie ever needing to pull out their address book or notepad before making the vital call.) Just as they never need to lock their car. Just jump out and leave it there; it's not as though anybody would ever steal an unlocked car, or even steal anything out of it!

And you can always find a parking spot in front of your house, even in Brooklyn (in Three Days of the Condor, Robert Redford forces Faye Dunaway to take him to her place so he can escape assassins, and they find a place to park right in front of her house; my husband said the theater he saw it in, in Bklyn, erupted in laughter)
