The only thing that pisses me off about the 'real life' stories is ..the witnesses..


where are they when they are needed. :rolleyes:

I like any horror movie as long as the story is okay and the gore is well done. I can't stand all the "gore"-or movies that have come out in the last few years.

As for what scares me, I'd have to say ghost stories. That or ones about the guy next door being a serial killer cause it could happen... and it does.. and that freaks me out a bit.

I've never met a movie that made me scream or jump & I smoke too much bud to ever remember my dreams, but my favorite sub-genre is zombies, followed by slashers. I'm a fan of cheesy, gross-out gore.

i like the suspense stuff with a great twist at the end. preferably in a ghost story format

I'm definitely more of the psychological/good ghost story type. I can enjoy a gorefest, but gore seems to have become the main drawing point for many people. I don't need it at all. If it fits with the story and enhances it, then I'm all for it, but too often it substitutes for anything of value (Jason Takes Manhattan, I'm looking at you).

this spider forest seems to be coming up a bit. a brief synopsis if you will, my good man?

It sounds very good, this Spider Forest movie!

I also like stuff with your typical gothic atmosphere...castles and chilly dark weather...I'm a sucker for that kind of crap. The movie doesn't even have to be good, I'll still watch it.

sounds like pans labyrinth might be up your alley. i think the keep might be a good choice also, although i can barely remember it as its beena long time and its hell trying to find a dvd copy
