Horror movies?

lol.  Blair Witch just gave me sickness.

Blair Witch 1 made me:
1. Want my money back 
2. Confused
3. Bored
4. Disappointed - it wasn't nearly as scary as everyone kept telling me it was

But then, I'm not prone to motion sickness...

and to think.... people actually believed that it was a true story lol

I have yet found a horror movie that really scared me.  Anyone know of any? Please don't suggest Saw; I have seen it and it went beyond scary to just gross.

I've never watched "Saw," nor do I want to. It's beyond gross. It's downright disturbing. Only a sick, twisted person would come up with a movie like that.

'Course, having been raised Catholic with a mother who was always telling me the devil was going to get me, the scariest movie for me ever remains "The Exorcist,"  though I was maybe 10 or 11 when I first saw it.  I'm sure normal people don't find it that frightening anymore.

I consider myself pretty normal, and "The Exorcist" gets to me. I have never been able to watch that movie all the way through. I think a major reason why this movie disturbs me so much is because I know people who have been eye-witnesses to demonic possession. I've never witnessed it myself, and I hope I never will.

Anytime is the right time.

Some would be surprised how some horror movies play out in the early afternoon. I have many times watched a movie in the early afternoon alone and it had more of an impact on me then it would have at night.

How'd I miss this thread.  Anyway, I usually watch horror at night.  But I watch it year round.  My viewing may have an uptick in Oct.  My taste really runs the gambit.  There's no one genre that I love or hate more than the others.  My partial list of faves are.  And if there is a remake of a film on my list, rest assured that I mean the original.  Remakes by and large suck.

The Omen
Evil Dead
Dead Alive
The Re-animator
Tx. Chainsaw Massacre
The classics (Dracula, Phantom of the Opera etc.) All the Cheney, Lugosi, Karloff films
Most Zombie films (even the remakes, for some reason I like those remakes.)
The Full Moon stuff from the 90s (Puppetmaster etc.)
The Howling
Near Dark
Mr. Frost
Vacancy
Underworld (anything with Kate Beckinsale, even Van Helsing)

"Drag Me to Hell" was awesomely epic.

I love all the "Evil Dead"s, but 2 is my ultimate fave. It was the pinnacle.

"Nightbreed" was cool.

The "Hellraisers" were all pretty ill.

"Creepshow" and 2 were both the bomb.

And the creature from "Jeepers Creepers" wouldn't let me sleep a wink for a week after I first saw that movie. <shudders>.

When I was a kid, "Pumpkinhead" tripped me out because they were talking about Razorback Holler, which sounded like it was in Arkansas. Where I lived. Not too many miles away, either.

I got more, but this is a good start.

Oh, and quite a few of the Japanese horrors are genuinely supercreepy, also.

I forgot about the Creepshows and Pumpkinhead.  Those were awesome.  I liked the first 2 Hellraisers also.  And Spellbinder was cool, with all the dark coven stuff.
