Hollywood's Horror Movies That Based On True Stories

Shows and films are often plagued with the tag line, “Inspired by actual events” or “Based on a true story”. Now, most of the time they aren’t technically lying: someone somewhere did something horrible and they wrote about it in their blog. Usually, films and TV jump at the chance for as much gore and heart-wrenching details they can squeeze out of their sources not unlike a teenager popping a dozen zits (I'm so sorry for that mental image).

But once in a while Hollywood does something truly shocking: they show restraint because the details in the actual story are so outrageous that audiences wouldn’t believe it.

Biggest Twitter Twits

You wouldn’t expect someone who owns a boutique called Khaos and a makeup line named Khrome to really know how to spell. And Kim Kardashian proved that on November 19 when she described her dinner to her 16 million followers as “#spinach #avacado #pear #apples #yogart” – getting only three of the five actually right. (Does she not have spellcheck?) Just three days earlier, she caused a “kommotion” when she tweeted she was “Praying for everyone in Israel,” angering people for seeming “anti-Palestine.” She quickly deleted the offending post, but later explained, “regardless of religion and political beliefs, there are countless innocent people involved who didn’t choose this, and I pray for all of them and also for a resolution.”
