Horror is it, that you’re craving? Surely you must know Wes Craven  
Nightmares he has filmed aplenty, Freddy Krueger comes to mind  
But of late it’s been Mike Myers – yes, the man never expires  
Halloween has had its fires, fires that have not been kind  
Plots that boggle, pause, rewinding…intricately intertwined  
but Mike Myers pays no mind

And what of the Scream(ing) franchise? Craven made those too, and plot-wise  
They’re uproarious and funny, but reviews trail far behind  
Halloween – well, it has Jamie. Plot? it’s surely cockamamie  
But reviewers have been gushing, gushing as if they are blind  
Hollywood’s machine is grinding, and rewarding its own kind  
And Mike Myers was a find
