Freaky films

[Benner]

I did a thread similar to this a while back, but as we have a huge amount of different members now I thought I'd ask again.

For years now I have tried to find a scary film as I love horror but have never been frightened by one.  I think this came from watching films that I shouldn't have done at a stupidly young age and I have now become immune to it all. 

So what films do you guys get scared by and recommend?

the one i cant watch is the texas chainsaw massacre but thats because of the gore, i cant digest gore but scary, scary honestly.............. i dont know any but maybe because i havent seen enough movies yet

Does scaring yourself in the mirror every morning count

[Benner]

I'm a bit of a sicko, so the more gore the better.  

Lob in a few zombies, some naked ladies and a corny catchphrase and you have the basis of a great movie.

You're right, this is scary;

How about Poltergeist?  A little dated now (OK very dated) but it scared the living s**t out of me when I first saw it.

Have heard a lot about it, but never actually seen.    I'll have to check it out.

I hear Paranormal Activity is scary.

I don't watch any of them. Hits a bit too close to my childhood experiences.

Funny thing about horror films. I really am into haunted houses and Home haunts. I have run both now going on 7 seasons, but Cannot stomach horror films. They really do bug me. I can scare the crap out of people and be scared to the point of anxiety attacks in a great haunt but movies, well they just really freak me out.

the original "the eye"
no, please not Paranormal Activity... another Blair Witch Projects... it works once.
the first "Evil dead" is scarier when NOTHING happens than when actually there's blood.


uh, I've a big collection and usually lesser the blood, bigger the fear.

[cliosguy]

wowowowowo i just remembered one!!! Ju-On: The Grudge(the japanese version) i s*** bricks with that one

Evil dead is actually one of my favourite films because it is so hilarious.

The Grudge is a bit creepy (watching it for about the 10th time as we speak as it so happens).

[yud]

The Brids, have seen it one time and as I reall it was scary

Poltergeist is fun

[nuphoria]

I thought 28 Days Later was a bit scary and that zombie one with Will Smith, erm.... I am Legend... I nearly has a frickin stroke trying to remember that 

Resident Evil films - good totty in the bargain there

Will think on this more for you.

[nuphoria]

Couple more....

The first Halloween movie was tense as hell... quite a classic really.

Nightmare on Elm St had my attention too. Not sure about the many sequels though

Lob in a few zombies, some naked ladies and a corny catchphrase and you have the basis of a great movie.  

damn i wish i could think of the movie that fits that bill...  the dude had a chainsaw for a hand.  anyone want to chime in?

Who need horror movies..?  

[Zed]

I think it depends on what spooks you, me its paranormal stuff, and things with demons etc, anything with a bit of demonic possession does me, the excorsist still does it for me, i like paranormal activity much better the the blair witch , the entity was a classic, but i like most horrors ,zombie wise dawn of the dead is a classic Romero, and love the shining ,
