For my twist entry I twisted together a popular fairy tale and a popular film. See if you can guess which ones (actually I don't think this is going to be too hard)
Come gather ‘round children. I
want to tell you a story that doesn’t start ‘once upon a time’ but starts ‘once
in the 1980’s.’
(skip a lot)
...The young women were dressed like they were going to be in a
Girl’s Just Wanna Have Fun MTV video. Half shirts, leg warmers, mini skirts,
big bows, shoulder pads, and suspenders.
Jennifer pulled her trundle bed all the way out from under
Jessica’s bed and one by one the girls scooted under the bed until they were
gone.
Steven waited until the coast was clear then made his
way past the reek of Exclamation and Aqua Net. Under the bed he found a hole
and he dropped down. Using his Vietnam training he followed the clack of the girl’s pumps
through a crudely dug tunnel into the Silver Spoons room– a room in the barn
that they girls dedicated to Ricky Schroder. Steven plucked a Teen Beat pic off
the wall and shoved it in his pocket. From the Silver Spoons room they walked
down Gold Leaf Lane where the signature maples were actually gold for the
season. Once again Steven took a souvenir, a leaf, and put it in the pocket
with the Ricky vs. Kirk Cameron picture. From Gold Leaf Street they found
themselves on Main Street, in front of the Diamond Bar. Once inside Steven saw
them take an immediate right through an Employee Only door. Steven grabbed a
bar napkin, put it in his pocket, and opened the door.
There was a rickety wooden staircase, which was still shaking
from the girls down below. The smell of fog juice, incense, and BO hit him in
the face. And the dance beat. Karma Kameleon to be specific. There was a dance
club underneath the Diamond Bar. That would explain why the bar plays it’s Hank
Williams so loud. It was an E&E club. Evian and Erasure.
So did you get it? I know it's not a perfect match but it was fun to try.
What mash-up fairy tale/film would you want to see?
