I love being scared, but then I can't leave the lounge after watching them!
The scariest I've seen has to be the Descent! I am now reading the book and just scared all the time!!!!
I was also a bit creeped out by house of wax, Saw & Saw2.
So, any scary recommendations?

I use to sit and watch old Horror Films when I worked on night duty in the old peoples home on my own.

Alll the Peter cushing and Vincent Price ones.
Some of them I used to find amusing. :laff:

I cannot now, since having little one, I cannot bear to watch anything horrific.

Creep was so :pants: Adele, I was like 'WTF???'

I'm also more of a wimp now, I can't even watch the ad for The Hills Have Eyes and Hostel. Scary :shock:

I love em!

Haven seen any of the newer ones though. My fave is probably Scream. Although I agree, Creep was a big stinking pile of poo

Me & DH are big wusses and can't watch scary films. He is worse than me though - he even jumped out of his skin watching Disney's Haunted Mansion :roll:

Creep was scary for the fact that they got locked in the tube at night. Have been a bit funny in the tubes late at night ever since. The weird animal thing that was killing everyone wasn't scary though. :pants:

Yeah, as soon as you were shown who was doing the killings, it got silly :roll:

LOVE scary films and although I know what will happen (and that it is only make believe) it doesn't stop me watching through my fingers!

Scariest film I've seen in recent years has to be the Blair Witch Project. I know it wasn't scary as such, but I have such an active imagination that I scare myself silly at times - and this was one such time! Me & OH stopped for a takeaway on the way home from the film, there was only us & staff in the shop and the wind caught the door and opened it, as it wasn't quite on the latch. I nearly wet myself! I couldn't go upstairs alone all night afterwards too! :doh:

Watched Saw 2 at the weekend, and that made me shout out loud in a couple of places!

I agree about Blair witch, we watched it at the pics and there was only us and a lone man in there! :shock:
Which is the one with sarah michelle gellar in Japan in it? that was freaky!

Horror films are my all-time favourite film genre, I've seen loads! Most don't scare me any more, although ones that have are Ring and Ring 2 (the Japanese ones - although the first American one was pretty good), Event Horizon, Lost Highway, and a little independent called 'The Collingswood Story' at last year's Frightfest.

Btw, if anyone's really into horror, Frightfest runs over Aug bank holiday in London and is 3-4 days of wall-to-wall horror at the Leicester Square Odeon - fantastic, and you even get a goodie bag with T-shirts, DVDs, sweeties etc. to take home!

I am such a wimp - I hate being scared. I went to see 'boogey man' at the cinema and had to hide in my polo neck jumper with my fingers in my ears.:rolleyes:

I LOVE :lurve: scary films - when my OH is away for the w/end I get 2-3 in, nothing like watching a bunch of squealing cheerleaders get the chop!

Watched The Grudge but wasn't that impressed - prob cos my BIL was nearly crying, bless. The Ring was a bit disturbing tho, brilliant till the end - then I nearly shat myself with fright! (Sorry!)

i used to be horror film mad but as i have got older they scare me more so dont like watching them as much - (they play on my mind now)

i loved years ago;

Amityville films
Poltergeist
Nightmare on Elm Street
The Omen
Witchboard (so scary about a ouja board!!!!):scared:
Halloween

Never found Scream, Blair Witch Project,The Exorcist or Psycho :shock: that scary,

One of the most creepy films i have seen is "Dont Look Now" but its a bit depressing too.

Forgot that one - really scared me as well, but it is really sad. I'd really like to read the story it's based on as I really like Daphne du Maurier's other books.

I don't like gory horror - but really love spooky films. The last one I watched was The Others and I enjoyed that.

Me too, i love Daphne du Maurier's books - ie Rebecca and My Cousin Rachel! - Dont Look Now was such a different type of story though wasnt it? (although Daphne du Maurier wrote Hitchcock's 'The Birds'!)
