Horror / suspense movies....
« on: February 28, 2005, 01:26:48 AM »
Saw...


SUCKED



nothing good about it, drama with robin hood prince in tights was poor. all i could think of is him in that -or- in liar liar, doing the fake "claw" with the kid. total hokey acting




the grudge...


im 1/4 through it and im freaked, all lights on in the house. i have no clue what is going on in this movie other than FU****** scary arse demon kids with black eyes, black mouths and they kill people anywhere they want to.

WTF is it about deadly satanic / demonic kids that f****** scares the **** outta me? children of the corn... whatever. MAN this movie is freaky. it may sound silly but "signs" REALLY got to me. i slept with a 7" hunting knife next to me and ALL the lights on for about 3 days. im 31 fargin years old, and a movie... a MOVIE got to me, and looks like it will do it again.
I don't know what to put here yet.

Signs got to you?

An alien who conquers interstellar travel but can't get out of a broom closet?  I was dissapointed with the creature from the black lagoon rubber suited man that the alien turned out to be.

For suspense and horror, Hitchcock's Psycho was the best.  None of all that telekinetic - satanic - extra powerful creature BS. Just something that could and has actually happened.

BTK, Bundy, Zodiac...  The real monsters are among us.

I thought Saw was good.  A couple of nice twists, and it wasn't the complete gore fest I thought was gonna be from watching the previews.

My my, thank you SOB :D

Saw "the grudge" a couple weeks ago, it was scary indeed... for some reason I always find the japanese scary stuff scaryier than ours. (Ok, maybe not Godzilla)

the "plot twists" in saw were predictable, and not that great anyway,....

the cancer patient,.... come on. saw that coming a mile away.


yeah that chinese kid with the black everything, kills people, that's some scary cht.


holden, yeah signs got to me, not for the plot discrepencies (IE water kills them, we are their food or whatever made out of 90% water, too many more to list) it was just well done to the point seeing an alien in the corn field that wants to kill you, and that scene on the rooftop and all. the knife under the door as a mirror was also one of the most well done suspense / reveal scenes i have seen in a long time




on a side note just watched "the village"


another CRAP "scary" movie. bad ending, bad plot, bad premise, some OK acting.

what happened to the freddy krugers and michale myers of our life?
