Grandma, can we rent a horror movie on TV? When I was your age TV wasn't so sophisticated! We couldn't rent movies. We didn't even have remote control. You had to get up and change the channel by hand. Screen was puny and the shows were limited. The resolution wasn't good. Oh, and we only had four channels. Suddenly, a horror movie seems redundant.
