When I was about 10 I watched Jeepers Creepers - that's the most I've ever been scared due to a movie.
Jeeeepers...Creeeeepers....how'd ya get those eyes ??
For me it has to be the movie "The last house on the left".
But it's a personal thing, as that movie was shot in South Africa, and when I was a kid, visiting my Uncle who lives in Somerset-West in the Cape, we used to go to the same location where the movie was shot, and he used to scare us when we played hide and seek around that house they used in the movie.
hah, cool story. I mean it literally, that's really cool to read.
John Carpenters - The Thing
I saw it later in my life, but yeah, very well done and a classic. A lot of what 'fear' is, perfectly portrayed and incorporated there.
Chucky scared me a lot as a kid too, but not these days.
When the Asian horrors such as Ju-On first came out I **** my pants, not literally. They whole long hair over the face and white gown look became over done after a while.
I haven't been scared too much by the newer movies unfortunately.. They are fun but not scary any more.
We're fairly alike. That whole post is very like me. I remember watching Chucky at a friend's place when I was a little kid, and literally hid behind the couch.
When I was a teen I saw "The Grudge" (American Ju-On) and that was the last time in my life I got really scared of a film. I'd think about it for *weeks* before bedtime and had trouble turning the light off my imagination was roaming so free. In my house at the time, the PC was in an open space leading to the stairs, and every once in a while I'd turn around on the right to look if the little Asian ghost kid wasn't staring at me holding on to the ledge awkwardly !...
And yes, haven't been scared in a while...
Oh wait ! REC, the real Spanish production. Some rough moments to go through with all the silences and jumpy scenes.
Anybody here knew Orin, Starchaser the animated film ?? This scene used to scare the Fukkidee fok out of me. The eyes on that second organic-bot thing...boy did I see those in my dreams as a child..
Weirdly, I'm fascinated with the great white shark but although I saw Jaws fairly early in my life, it never left a mark on me.
Oh, and how could I even dare forget...Cronenburg's The Fly (1986). But it was more than fear there, I know see as a grownup the movie is downright unhealthy. Too bad, because it's a great movie. Don't think I'll ever watch it again now, though..
