Magic scared the bejeezus out of me - I saw it a couple of months ago and decided I was so freaked out cause I was so young when I first saw it. I like movies like Halloween, where you don't know when something's going to jump out at you. I'm not into gore for the sake of gore, so I haven't seen any of the Saw movies, or ones like them. Stephen King movies don't scare me 'cause I'm too busy comparing it to the book/short story although, I'll probably go see The Mist because it looks like it's close to the short story. Nyheat, I saw Silent Hill, and while it was creepy, I was too busy picking it apart. When the movie opens, the woman and her daughter are driving down a WV country road, and the road has street lights! Uh, not on any 2-lane I've driven in WV and I've driven many...lol And then she leaves the daughter in the car while she pays for gas...but the building is about 1/2 a block away from the pumps, and it's dark, and she's in an unknown place. Uh, think not! So, I stick with the classics: Rear Window Halloween Night of the Hunter Night of the Living Dead and not so classics: Blair Witch Scream The Ring Stephen King or Robert McCammon books scare me more than any movies have.

I agree with you blue...while there were pars in Silent Hill were I jumped, it was overall horrible. I would never watch it again

Beckie, I tried to watch it with DH again and he turned it off because I was pointing out the stupid stuff. He says he can't watch horror flicks with me. (He actually liked the mini-series IT and other SK flicks. lol) Another one I like is Jeepers Creepers 2. This is one sequel that is a lot better than the original. I creep myself out more by watching A Haunting on the Discovery Channel. So badly that I turn on the light before I enter a room, and I can't go to the basement after dark for a few days. I'm such a dork...lol

I don't think I've met anyone who liked IT the movie, lol. Caleb's favorite show is A Haunting, I have to tivo it for him cuz it comes on before he gets home from school. Sometimes he totally cracks me up when he's watching sitting there talking to the tv, "Who grabs a gun when they have a ghost????" "Oh give me a break, put the knife down!" He's as fun to listen to as watching the show, lol.

Uh, Magic is totally very scary!! I stayed up until 3 am the other night to see it again. Whereas when I rewatched the Howling, I was like "eh." Not so scary and sort of cheesy. One or two brilliant scenes but that's it.

Ny, I felt that way about Prince of Darkness. When I saw it in the theaters about 15-20 yr ago, I was so scared and freaked out that my friend and I went to see a comedy immediately after seeing P of D. When I saw it 5 yr ago or so on video/dvd, I thought the same as you felt about the Howling. The Ring is really good and scary. Silence of the Lambs too. I saw Hard Candy, yep, disturbing. It was interesting visually though...so amazingly bright and crisp. Recently, Disturbia is scary at times and funny too. I really enjoyed it! I don't tend to watch anything gory.

My 17 year old really enjoys horror movies. She has a few that she recommends. Here she is: First of all, Audition (I know it already got mentioned) is a fantastically horrifying film that spends the first hour pretending it's not a film about torture. The last 40 minutes, though, are so intense I've heard of people being completely unable to watch it after the first time they've seen it (I'm not one of them). This is a Japanese film, so it has subtitles. If you're into horror/comedy, Evil Dead 2 is perfect... It's so completely ridiculous in terms of its antics that you're laughing the whole time, but the thing that REALLY makes the movie is the cinematography. Jump cuts are not Peter Deming's style, which makes the entire film more interesting to watch. Escapee: my film study teacher was some sort of zombie in The Gate. When they make a hole in the wall and one of them falls out and I guess they hit him in the head with a typewriter or something? and he breaks into lots of little things scampering around: That's him. Also: Not technically a horror film, but Sybil was an extremely disturbing movie to watch. Really good if you're interested in psychology. Funny Games is a great movie (it's a German horror film, so it's got subtitles) that is shot in an interesting way... It's about two serial killers working together to terrorize this family. Highly recommend.

I still think the Exorcist was the scariest for me, but because it was the first of its kind and I was young and impressionable... now I just laugh at the silliness...
