I was discussing it earlier with my friends and there was obviously a mix of responses from people because some of my friends are wimps :P

But what scary films have actually scared you a lot? Because a lot of films with the 'horror/scary' genre aren't really scary :conf:

Light hearted discussion :)

The Ring scared the bejesus out of me, for months after I used to be so scared going to the loo in the middle of the night, I'd be scared to look in the mirror incase Samaras face would be in there behind me :(

None of the common ones i always find it's the lesser known ones that are scary.

The ending of Rec is pretty bad because of the monster

i remember after watching PA 1 when i was in bed there was problems with the pipes up stairs so it kept making noises so i thought there was a demon in my house :bawling:

and i'm still afraid to put my leg outside the bed so the demon doesn't drag me out :bawling:

Don't really get scared by films but The Blair Witch Project made me poop my pants.

If there's actually a demon trying to get you, I doubt having your leg inside the duvet is going to protect you much :laugh:

When I was younger I watched Stephen Kings IT and it terrified me, and the first time I saw Texas Chainsaw Massacre (the original) was quite scary.

None of them frighten me now though, horrors are my favourite type of movie.

I watched Stephen King's It recently and found it really boring. It just goes on and on and on and on and on.





















































and on and on and on and on.

Its more like one of the sickest films ive seen than scariest, but those hillbilly cannibals are freaking creepy -shudders- :joker:

In the third one the three fingered one fires an arrow through a girls eye, then just picks it up and eats it :yuk:

Marsh.
07-08-2011, 07:18 PM
Probably the original "Psycho". The fact it was in black and white made it worse and I used to have nightmares of Norman mimicking his mother's voice. lol. So creepy.

I find modern scary films too gory, it doesn't scare me but makes me feel sick I hate them.
The House of Wax and Grudge are probably the only ones I can say had me scared and really creeped out.

-didn't find the grudge or the ring scary-

theres only 1 kinda scary scene in the grudge when that blonde girl hides under the covers and the grudge is under there 2!

I haven't seen a good scary film in years but when I was little the transformation scenes and dream sequences in American Werewolf in London used to terrify me. The child vampires and Barlow in Salem's Lot get an honourable mention although their effect has waned over time.

My mum recorded Salem's Lot the other day and was watching telling me how it used to terrify her. Just as the scene where the blue skinned vampire leaps through the kitchen window and smacks the heads of the two parents together, I was on the floor laughing.

But this image will forever haunt me when I'm in the shower...

Makes me thankful we have a clear glass shower cover rather than a freaky curtain.

-****s self due to having shower curtain-

'Conor
07-08-2011, 07:43 PM
-doesnt have a shower curtain thank god-

but i did in this hotel and my brother came in to get like some lynx or something and i could see his figure through the curtain and it reminded me of this scene.

Joelle.
07-08-2011, 07:47 PM
When I go in the bathroom at night I always check behind the shower curtain for murderers/men dressed as their deceased mother.

[REC] made me crap myself for ages.

Hostel was another film that scared me, because whilst in Europe me and a few friends decided to watch it at a hostel in the mountains. :laugh:

The original Texas Chainsaw Massacre made me jump 3 times which is the most I've jumped during a movie but the remake and all these hillbilly films like The Hills Have Eyes (remake) and Wrong Turn unnerve me. I dislike murderous hillbillies.

Also I used to think Scream 1 and 2 were scary but now I've seen them so many times I just rewatch them for the humour

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (original), Nightmare on Elm Steet (when I was younger) but all time scariest has to be...

http://images.pictureshunt.com/pics/t/the_shining-10805.jpg

Edit: CARRIE is terrifying also. Films like Hills Have Eyes, Wrong Turn etc I think are quite funny tbh lol.

Apart from Wolf Creek which unnerved me hella lots because it made me think of that guy who went missing in the outback (Peter...?)

There's just something about hillbillies that terrify me but I can still joke about them lol.

Another film I used to find pretty scary lol...

Recently the only film I've seen that I can say is genuinely scary is Insidious. Uber clichéd and very old school in its approach but creepy nonetheless. The music alone is terrifying.

Joelle.
16-08-2011, 11:32 PM
Wolf Creek. That is one disturbing film.
