Anyone else love these horror films?
Sure they are mostly B movies but still... i love em
friday 13 series etc etc
Showtime is having "horror summer" and they are showing all those horror classics.
They used to kinda make me jump when i was a kid and saw them without my parents knew or liked it.
Tonight there is a really bad one Swamp thing. Tomorrow its Children of the Corn III (the other 2 have been shown. Later this week Friday the 13th movies start.
:)

Since I'm 37 years old I do remember all of those movies.
When I was a young kid my mom took me to a drive in theater. It was a double feature. I can't remember the first movie but the second movie shown was called "To the devil a daughter".
That movie scared the hell out of me.
All of those goofy 80's movies are all funny now.
Friday the 13th
Nightmare on Elm Street
Halloween
People under the stairs
and the list goes on and on.
-
The only scary movie I have ever seen in my life is "The Exorcist", seen at the theatre first run. That one scared me enough to not want to see anymore.
-
Swamp Thing was a comic book adaptation.
;)
-
Leprechaun was pretty scary...although 90s?
-
The Fog
i was around 10 yrs old..I saw the first 3 min of..ran out of room
When the opening scene starts..HUGE dark fog bank envelopes a fishhing boat...soem ghost or somthn walk son..and stiks the captain in the eye ball..i ran away..
I fianlly saw the entire movie few years after
adn how could you guys not put the Shinning in...ewwwwweeeee..thats scary
-
Hammer films... lotsa of busty wenches... mmmmmmmm busty wenches....droool
-
The Leprechaun series is pretty funny, but I dunno about scary. Well, the first one did make me cry, but that was only because the then unknown Jennifer Aniston didn't take her shirt off. I mean really, why have an unknown actress with a nice rack in a horror flick if she ain't gonna get topless? That's just fundamentally wrong.

"Scary" movies are crap
didn't even waste my time taking a date to one
but one movie did scare the crap out of me, the Wizard of Oz but then I was < 5 years old ...
-
Toxic Avenger
-
The Exorcist
Karaya
-
Before the days of Caller ID there was "I saw what you did, and I know who you are". Great early 60's flick.
-
Good scary movie that isnt a Hack em up flick
"When a Stranger Calls"
Have you checked the children?
-
One of my brothers took me to see The Legend Of Boggy Creek when I was about 5 years old. Never have been so freaked out in my life. And it was supposed to be based on a true story of a monster in a creek...I grew up not 300 feet from a boggy creek. Once the sun set I never ventured into that forest until I was about 14. Still creeps me out to think about it.
-
The timeperiod in itself is horror to me without even movies.
The first horror flick I ever saw was called 'the superstition' and was basically the only horror movie that scared me. Might have something to do with the fact that I was 8 and watching it from vcr at home alone and in secret. :)
Friday the 13th also scared me bad, not the movie itself but the end titles hand if you know what I mean.
I watched it late and started to doze off during the end titles. I was half asleep ready to close the eyes when Jasons hand broke out of the water.. I literally jumped. :rofl
-
Doesn't seem like I've missed much. :D
-
friday 13th series really made me jump quite a few times. that mask was really creepy at the time and so was the fact that he never spoke.. he just stood there. the music and the crystal lake place was kinda scary too.
First time i saw Pet Cemetary we were a bunch of people in a cabin in the moutains and we were pretty stoned... we jumped.. then laughed.. eary
the movies that i find "creepy" now is usually those with little or no blood and goo. the last scene that i have found that even slighty gave me chills was the very last scene in The Blair Witch Project... were the dude just stood in the corner with the back to the cam and then the cam fell and nothing..
the ring was ok too, but it didnt make my skin crawl
-
Diablo my brother and I saw that too (Boggy Creek)...and it had the same results! LOL!
-
Haloween scared the bejezsus out of me when i was a kid. some family function all the "old" cousins were watching, and me and another young cousin snuck into the room for about 10 minutes.
i still remember the first scene i saw, Michael Myers walking across the patio door behind that guy to kill him. scared the crap outta me.

I grew up behind a corn field in Omaha Nebraska. After having watched Children of the Corn I had to find a new route to walk to school. To this day rows of corn freak me out a little.

It is hard to describe the affect the "Excorsist" had on us in the 70's. I was seriously freaked out for a few days.
-
None of the 70's and 80's stuff can compare to the horror of a "dead wet girl".

A former boss of mine had a roommate at college who saw The Exorcist and literally went insane because of it. The impact of that movie, although I was only 5 or 6, was very apparent to me and still is. What Star Wars was to Sci Fi, The Exorcist was to Horror.
Also, the movie The Entity freaked my out. It's been the only movie that I have seen since I was a teen that put the heebie jeebies in me.

That movie was just bizarre and disturbing, not scary.
-
I loved Damnation Alley. More Sci-fi than horror, but I thought it was cool!
-
I guess you never had an attic with mice in it, then.
-
ANy of you guys see "Mother's Day"?
Was a Troma production. Just bought the DVD. Saw it long ago and thought it was lost forever. One of my favorites. Not scary. Just funny and gory.
Favorite lines from it....
"I'll go get the Kodak!"
"You boys have made your mother verrrrry prouuuuuuuuuuud!"
"Queenies out there...I just know it!!"
"When you know what you know...you ACT ON IT!"
-
The earliest movie I can remember that scared the crap out of me was Equinox (http://imdb.com/title/tt0067055/). I was eight years old.
Next after that, Jaws (http://imdb.com/title/tt0073195/) came out when I was thirteen.
I used to love the old John Carpenter stuff... Halloween, The Fog, etc. After that, nothing of note until Nightmare on Elm Street. I though Friday the 13th was absolute crap and I laughed all the way through Phantasm.
Later on... Poltergeist was interesting.
Best of them all? No question... Alien (http://imdb.com/title/tt0078748/)

!!!
I have read John Campbell's classic short story, "Who are you?" as it was translated into Russian (At Wikipedia I found a correct English title: "Who goes there?"), and I have heard that there is a film based on it. I couldn't believe it's possible to make a movie out of that story, until I saw it on one of the first VCRs in mid-80s...
Carpenter is a genius.
Hmm. Wikepedia is a usefull thing, I found out that there was another film made in 1951 based on that story.
-
"Phantasm" was a lot of fun and very entertaining. It had IMO a very novel horror theme. And one HAD to love the Cuda!
"Blood Beach" was a good one also. Lots of gore. :)
And "Fright Night" was a cool vampire flick too.
But it was "Aliens" that made me shat in my pants.
-
The Boggy Creek film had the same effect on me too. I also remember seeing The Fog, Jaws, Carrie, Halloween, Christine, The Car, and Salems Lot.
-
Anything that is a Sci-Fi Original Picture is usually pretty scary....
for the people that fund them.:lol
