Nothing scares me :(
 
I used to love horror movies especially creepy suspense like 'The Ring' or real jumpy like 'The Descent' but lately I'm finding nothing works!! I feel like a druggy whose developed a tolerance! I don't like slashers or too much torture but otherwise I like most styles. Please help! Any suggestions???

celia.rose 11-20-2012 10:47 AM

ha ha I see point but that's the wrong kind of horror too ;)

I do like the religiousy ones, demons, satan etc

There's no help for you. It's over.

I thought Insidious had some good moments - The Innkeepers was pretty good (slow and atmospheric but good). House of the Devil was also pretty good (same director as Innkeepers so also slow and atmospheric).

I think for those of us who love horror - at some point the 'scared' fades and an appreciation of the artistry takes over - this might be the way a director creates atmosphere or the way an effects wizard makes gore - but we learn to appreciate the films more than fear them.

Wise words Zero, thank you,I feel a little comforted :) I will try out those films!

hmmm...
 
Have you ever watched Fun House?

I completely understand you. Insidious was a good one and so was grave encounters. It seems like I watch more horror movies and just get disappointed then actually enjoy it.

Zero hits it on the head.

I keep searching for the white whale.

Key is to ratchet horror up to the next level: experience terror in real life. Join a demonic cult. Walk dangerous neighborhood streets at night. Answer dubious craiglist ads. There is no limit to the rush of horror from this "thrill-seeking."

Though my BFF got us a night in a haunted hotel... Last Christmas. Still haven't gone, I have seen enough movies not to mess with that shit

This is another good idea. Find creepy old abandoned houses in town and set up residence.

I suggest you try giving birth...The horror is immense.You will forever talk about the experience and compete with your friends about how many sutures you received and the length of time you were in labour for.
Incidentally,Did you know my first child was 9lb 13 oz and I had a Franken flange for weeks afterwards?....blah blah etc
