Impressive Guest List

Just a few years back, we pulled out the stops
Had a Halloween party, that by far, was the tops!
The theme was about movies, and the Hollywood scene
The classics or Netflicks, the best of the screen!

We sent invitations, and asked folks to wear
a costume that spoke of a movie to share
We played movie theme songs, and plastered the place
With film memorabilia, and Movie star faces

We set up a snack bar, and the popcorn was brewing
A floor for some dancing, a place for some viewing
My hubby in black, wore a robe, cap, and gown
He wore on his face...'The Graduate's' frown

Our guests in the spirit, came decked out as well...
Indiana, Harry Potter, and Rocky were swell
We had Batman, Jason, Scarlett, as well
Ben Hur rode his chariot, 
The crew from the Enterprise....well...they were the merriest!
Godfather came...with Bonnie and Clyde
Dracula, Superman, and Frankenstein's Bride
We had Indiana Jones, and Edward Scissorhands
Nanny Mary Poppins, and the Master took Command!
Hannibal, and Gladiator, Thelma and Louise....
Well, ....our guest list was impressive....and I wouldn't tease!
Sherlock Holmes was a handsome dude...but there was Something About that Mary...???
Who me.........  you ask?   What did I wear??? Well...of course I came as CARRIE !!
