Urban legends
One reasonable request gets the expected response:

And it was a Corvette convertible when my dad told me the same story in
about 1965. He also told me about the Cadillac convertible that the
jealous husband filled with cement.
So is it "Scream 2" where the psychotic killer is offing people by
reproducing a series of the more gruesome urban legends, e.g. "the
hook"?
MAC: If the couple in "the hook" had been out necking in an Audi, they
never would have known... :-)
