Black and white movies are the scariest to me. Dracula (damn that Bela was creepy and SO into the part), and Night of the Living Dead. That opening cemetery scene with that zombie still freaks me the hell out. I remember when I was five years old somehow I got to watch "Dracula". The scene where he's creeping into the room, and Mina/Lucy is asleep with her neck on full display just creeped me out. For YEARS afterwards I could not sleep unless the covers were up to my chin. If Dracula wanted my neck, he was going to have to fight to find it...damn't. I tried watch "Suspira" and I wasn't scared so much as grossed out. And the trend only continues now--gross movies do nothing for me, truly scary films leave it up to the imagination...like "An American Werewolf in London"--the most frightening scene in that movie? The business man being chased in the London Underground. You see it all from the point of view of the wolf. So it's just the terror on the man's face as he's being chased trying to get away. You never see the wolf attack (only approach), and it just creeped me out. Dario Argento's The Stendhal Syndrome is pretty jacked up too. Count me in for Spielberg's Duel and The Hitcher with Rutger Hauer. |

Dario Argento's movies are hit-or-miss for me, but Deep Red (also known as The Hatchet Murders) is pretty good and has some of the most frightening moments I've ever seen on film.

Watched The Descent last night. Not bad. I liked that the filmmakers had the guts to kill off everyone, or virtually everyone.

Dario Argento's movies are hit-or-miss for me, but Deep Red (also known as The Hatchet Murders) is pretty good and has some of the most frightening moments I've ever seen on film. Oh yeah, Deep Red. The music is what's so creepy about that. That warped plinky over the top children's music *shudder* And that creepy little wind up doll *super shudder* The music was the big boo in "Suspiria" too. Goblin, ya'll- they come up with some scary stuff! I've seen a lot of Argento's stuff, but Deep Red and Suspiria have always been the ones I come back to again and again. But has anyone noticed that in almost all of his movie some small creature will die horribly? [spoilers and general unpleasentness] Like the bat that gets smashed in Suspiria, the bird that gets impailed on a knitting needle in Deep Red as well as a lizard that gets buried head first in the ground by a mean little girl, and another lizard that gets smushed in a little boy's hand in Trauma. I know there's more even, but those are the ones that pop up in my mind right now |

The Watcher in the Woods, saw it on TV when I was 8 because you know a Disney movie how bad can it be my babysitter thought. Also, the 1980 film The Changeling with George C. Scott. I never knew that a ball rolling down a staircase could creep me out that badly. That movie also caused me to be scared of wheelchairs for years after.

That movie scared me to death when I was young.
Hubby and I watched Candyman tonight. I'm kind of sad that I didn't feel it was as scary as when I watched it years and years ago. Sniff.

Who or what is Goblin?
I looked up Suspira and saw with amazement that Spanish singer Miguel Bose was one of the actors.
