Yeah I meet him at Horrorfind in 2003, They have a really good costume contest on sat night I was sitting next to the exit for the contestants, I look over and right on the other side of the contestant walk way was a guy dressed like Alice in full make up, He thought he was sneaking in lol
I forgot my copy of army of darkness So I got Waynes World signed instead :D

When counting more than movies, Alice Cooper is actually my first horror memory... My dad was/is a big fan and he had AC concerts on video and they scared the hell out of me. I'm not a fan of his music, but I think of him as a brilliant stage performer just because of the nightmares he gave me.

Captain Spaulding aka Sid Haig is another one that just has the look. Every time I have meet him I always wonder if he actually has an alligator boy in his basement. He just looks and sounds creepy, he is so intimidating. He is going to be at horrorfind this year with Bill Mosely. Gonna get my spaulding talking action figure signed "and most of all dont forget to take home some of my tasty fried chicken "
:D

My first...
 
This is actually my FIRST POST here on horror.com.
YAY!!!

The first horror film I saw was Friday the 13th. I actually sent a letter about this to HORRORHOUND magazine and they published it.
My divorced mother took my sister and I (I was 7 years old at the time) on a date back in 1980 and the second film showing was Friday the 13th. I have no clue what the first film was, but that second one changed my life. I remember peeking around the front seat, while I was supposed to be sleeping mind you, and watching in awe as people had their throats slit, arrows thrust through their throat, a hatchet to the forehead and a decapitation. I am also sure that it was the first time I had ever seen a breast. Because of all this violence I slept on the floor next to my mother's bed for 3 months and I've been looking for that same scare for the last 31 years.

my first horror movie that I remember watching was The Exorcist. I was about 5 or 6. watched alone on a rainy October night and freaked my self out. Some years later I started watching it with my friends and to my surprised I now think the exorcist is the best satanic comedy ever.

i liked exorcist never scared me, i think it gets over rated as a scary movie, just a good horror movie.

You cant just judge a horror movie on its fright capabilities. Everyone seems to do this with The Exorcist. What makes it so good and what makes it so frightening is that the movie really pulls you in. The story, the acting, the whole entire feel of the movie adds to the drama of what you are seeing and makes you feel like you're a part of it. I think that's where the fear comes in and even though i was never scared i loved the movie.

I saw it in the theater when it came out (I was about 13 - same age as Linda Blair) - and it scared the bejesus out of me!

I remember reading that when it first came out, people fainted, vomited and ran out of the theater. Any of that happen when you saw it? ;)

hammerfan 08-10-2011 09:49 AM

Yeah, me! I left the theater before the movie was even over! LOL!!

that's what i am saying, people watch it and expect the movie to terrify them, i love the movie aswell, but i never watched it expecting it to terrify me.i found it scary in other ways, and the movie was very daring for the time it was made. alot of youths watch it today expecting it to terrify them, then moan saying it is rubbish that it did not scare them, which realy anoys me, it's a good horror movie with a very good story.when i first watched it i found it very shocking, i had never heard language with swearing like that before, and the blasphimy which is mainly why it got banned, i dont know why cus it's good vs evil and good wins.my wife hates the movie it unsettles her and scares her, so i think if u get into the story and if u believe in heaven and hell it can be a very scary movie.

My earliest horror memory is of throwing my My Buddy doll into the basement after watching Childs Play.
