Oh, I have to say that horror is my least favorite genre... although so many folks like it! ;) A well-written cinquain that certainly highlights those 'memories' from the iconic film, my lady! ;) Thanx for sharing! ;) Yvette

Love it! One of my favourite horror movie characters of all time. Why did I think of him for my horror cinquain. It certainly wouldn't have been as good as this though! Brilliant how you took that scene from the movie, one of the most powerful it has. Now you made me want to go and watch the full series again!!! Thanks for that.
Great presentation too, the imagery and colour scheme. Well done!
Best Wishes
Nicki

Ohhhh creepy! I love how you used one the most popular quotes from the movie in it's entirety for the poem. The picture is perfect. Great job on this week's prompt.

Who could ever forget this movie with Anthony Hopkins? The horror of it all is brought back here in your succinct and evocative cinquain and visual. Thank you for sharing, Gypsy. Debbie

'Silence of the lambs' was my all time favourite too. I read the book first, and then the sequal, Hannibal. I was disappointed that the film didn't follow the ending of book two. I thought you did a fabulous job writing this poem, it truly is horrific!! Well done. :)) Sandra xx

    Silence of the Lambs is my favorite. I didn't like, Hannibal. The scene with the brain was really disturbing.

    Thank you very much 😊

Very strong entry for this contest that is based on a very popular movie. Your vivid use of color recreates the familiar imagery that chills the memory. I do not know if your title was deliberate, but I think the name of the movie was, "The Silence of the Lambs." I don't know if that matters, but thought I would point that out to you.
Strong entry.
RJ

    You're welcome. In this case I was referring more to the "Lamb", should be "Lambs".

My older boys were teenagers when Silence of the Lambs came out. I wouldn't allow them to see it. An English teacher showed it during class. Of course, my son came home raking me over the coals for being to 'old fashioned'. I still by my values. They had not business seeing it. Just my opinion. Your poem and presentation are beautiful.
