Tales from the Crypt
And the crypt keeper himself, Michael Chertoff, gives us another look at why we should be afraid, be very afraid. However, Mikey chooses to inflate the image of the bloody minded, fiendishly clever terrist taking over the world and taking us down if we are not properly quaking in our shoes. And liberally (can I use that word?) sprinkled though the piece is the ultimate icon, "9/11". He conspicuously does not mention his repeated failure to secure our borders and ports of entry, but that was not what he was hired to do, was it. It is not quite as cathartic as a slasher movie, but read it if you need a frisson of fear.
Overall, Mikey does a workman like job of waving the bloody flag.
