Laughed in the end. At myself.

And then went insane for a year.

Anyone that willingly had any part in the making of that film had to be a little off to begin with.....:rolleyes:

Eye candy doesn't make a bad movie better...

there is 3 movies, one is killer clowns from outerspace, it terrified me, and i will never watch it again. The second is the ring, this movie had me sleeping with the lights on for 3 months and at night when i was sleeping or not using the tv, it had me so parinoid and uneasy i would put a towel or sheet over it, and if the tv ever went to a channel with the static screen and white noise i would flip out, panic and turn off the tv scared to put it back on. so yes im a parinoid person. lol

I watched Time Bandits and Never Ending Story when I was real young...Time Bandits was just so wierd I didnt know what was going on and was constantly afraid midgets were gonna break into my room and push the wall back. The wolf in Never Ending Story was just too much for me, and I always thought that big flying dog would eat the main character. Nevertheless, I watched the hell outta those movies.

Also when I was young I watched an Unsolved Mysteries episode about a haunted house. There was a ghost kid who would bounce a ball against a wall, and the people would hear it. Well, later on that night my dad decided to wake me up by bouncing a tennis ball against my door. That fucked me up for a long time, but in the most delightful way.

i was just wondering:

what is a movie that really, honestly terrified you and why?

i watched "funny games" for the first time around eight years ago, and it really shook me up badly. i guess just the coldness of the characters, probably also the fact that i was only 13.

so what about the rest of you?

Ok........out of character for me....but i'm gonna give you a straight answer.

"Jaws" is most likely the only movie that had a long lasting effect on me.I live in New England so beaches are readily available to me and when that movie first came out I was just a teenager of 17......every time I went into the water that fucking music would be playing in my head.....duh duh....duh duh.....duh duh duh duh duh duh duh da....do da doo

I've never been ''truly terrified'' by a movie but The Exorcist is the only movie that's really gave me a chill.

Ditto.

And that Gmork character in Never Ending Story fascinated me when I watched it the first time.

Gmork Was the wolf right? if so he scared the crap out of me, i would close my eyes when ever he was on the screen.

The neverending story KINDA had me uneasy in some parts.

I remember NOES1 and the first hellraiser were the ones that had a lot of ongoing nightmare related impact as a kid...I was maybe 6-7 when I saw them both...

Critters, although laughable now also got to me.

Probably the two that freaked me out most though, were
*invaders from mars...kinda like the kids equivalent to bodysnatchers...
*Almost a tie with the lake scene in whatever creepshow movie had that one.

The Exorcist definitely creeped me out a bit when I was younger. Also when I was about 5, Sssssss, yeah the crappy one with Dirk Benedict...

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre for me. I think I might have mentioned this in three other threads......but it was the only film that I tried to watch but just couldn't finish until I was sixteen, it bothered me so much. And its now one of my favorites, of course.
A Nightmare On Elm Street and The Exorcist are two others one that creeped me out pretty good.

Oh oh, I've given this a lot of though and my answer is "Misery" with Kathy Bates. Now, I have a fear of Kathy Bates to begin with but the idea of being trapped by a person is so terrifying. Even in relationships, I don't want to feel like my actions are based on another human being making it impossible to escape if I wanted to.

The Exorcist was really scary. It gave me goosebumps even under my shawl.

SSSSS was a scary one too with Strother Martin & Dirk benedict. This one turns a human being into a snake.

However, Kingdom Of The Spiders shivered me down to my bloomers. Seeing those hairy tarantulas everywhere and with the actors having them all around them. I had to change my bloomers after that one! I was checking for days to make sure none were crawling up under my skirt! Whew!

A Nightmare On Elm Street Scares me whenever I watch it, so does the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Some others are It, and Zelda from Pet Semetary freaked me out too, I guess that's about it.

those are two good choices. ugh, the part in hellbound that comes to mind is when the "bug" guy cuts himself with the razor. eck.
audition is amazing, and i couldn't really pinpoint one scene like that since there are many.

the part in hellbound that got me more than anything is when that doctor guy got shoved in that box and got turned into a cenobite just the way he screamed seriously hauntend my dreams for awhile. and the audition was just fucked up all around a very sadistic movie.

oh yeah! that's when those thin wires slice into his body. ugh.
something about audition (one of many things, i guess) that will always be in my mind is the way she talks to him while cutting off his feet with that wire. chilling! miike is great.

The Blair Witch Project still chills my bones to the core, and if anybody can track it down The Woman In Black (UK TV movie, 1984) has at least one heart-stopping moment worthy of any horror film ever made.

The two movies that scared me were The Exorcist and Black Sabbath.

The latter was by Mario Bava and contained three seperate stories: The Drop Of Water, The Telephone & The Wurdalak ( which starred Boris Karloff in this story).

The first story (The Drop of Water) was the story of a nurse who steals a ring from a dead spiritualist only to be haunted by the corpse. It frightened me!

This was one trilogy that gave your hostess to the supernatural here (Countess Marya) a chill!

When I was 6 The Amityville Horror scared the shit out of me.

For more recent scares...I'd have to say (even though so stupid) the alien segment in VHS 2...aliens and I do not have a great relationship...and also the near end of Oujia...only because I was the only one in the theater and I kept looking around..very scared...felt dumb because I'm well past 13...10 years past :s

I laughed when I first saw The Exorcist. In fact, there is little tonal difference between its grand possession scene and that of the opening in Scary Movie 2.
