Scary Movies

[Cozmo]

There is a whole slew of horribly grotesque movies available nowadays for people to watch. Most would never make it into our permanent DVD collection, but every once in a while there's a movie released that is scary and actually has a real good storyline. I've been guilty of watching some real bad ones, unfortunately.

I am not a really big fan on the really grotesque movies but as far as being scary i will have to say the #1 that sticks in my mind is The Thing it was just a freaky movie and is still today.

I don't like blood and gut movies. So I don't watch movies where people are getting hacked and sawed and eaten. yuccccccky poooh. I like some suspense and I LOVE religious thrillers. The last good religious thriller I saw was The Order. Now that one I need in my dvd collection.

I like scary movies for one reason. It's a little escape from reality for a while. When I watch them occasionally, it makes me happy that I'm not the character in the movie running away from the ghost or the killer.

Ok, I'll be the one to admit to enjoying all the blood and gore I can get... as an above poster said... it's an escape... I get nightmares and MrCozmo has to cover my eyes here and there (ya ya, I'm a big ole baby), but they're fun anyways. I do prefer to see them at the theatre instead of at home, tho... it's easier to seperate myself from those images being shown in our bedroom. My most favorite recent one was Freddy Vs Jason... ok, anyone who saw it just has to admit that was the funniest 'scary' movie of the last 5 years... I hope they make a sequel... as long as it's equally as funny. I don't like the shining tho (sorry dear), and I've never seen the exorcist (no pea soup pls)... but the rest of them I really enjoy.

I love scary movies because they are usually unpredictable and keeps you wondering. I really like the Final Destination movies and Darkness Falls. Do you guys know of any other good scary movies?

 

[KarateJack]

Scary movies is one of my favorite types of movies. Some are so bad their fun to just watch and make fun of lol (Freddy vs Jason, anyone? ). Some are pretty good and actually pretty scary, though (Texas Chainsaw Massacre. )

I haven't seen a good scary movie made in the past ten years. Before then, however... I like a good horror flick. My favorite: The Exorcist. My recommendation: The Exorcist

As an aspiring screenwriter, I love every genre of film including horror.

I HATE scary movies with a passion. My husband loves them though and talks me into watching them occassionally (but, let me tell you, he better give me something really, really good in return). The scariest one I've seen in the past few years was House on Haunted Hill. Before that, the one that scared me most was Candyman.

I'm a HUGE chicken and I hate to feel scared or be surprised. And, inevitably, my husband (after talking me into watching the dang movie) falls asleep in the middle of it, leaving me to my own scary thoughts and bad dreams.

We're in the middle of watching Rose Red (Steven King miniseries, I think). Had the DVD for months and haven't finished it yet. Pretty creepy, though. Storm of the Century (another Steven King miniseries) was scary, too.

Love, Heather

All right do you have a particular type of scary movie you like? You mentioned The Shining, if you like ghost movies ever seen "the Devils Backbone"? It's spanish and creepy well past anything the US is making right now. Or "the Eye"? Chinese I think. That one was great! Both those have subtitles or dubbed I prefer subtitles but if you want to enjoy it pick which ever one you like. If you like bloody, try "Audition", Japanese, painful. You've been warned! If you like older you almost can't miss with Val Lewton "Cat People" "Seventh Victim". I love horror movies. That should get you started. I'm going to get some sites together you can check-out!

HeatherJay, I do that to the mrs. all the time, lol Btw, I also wanted to tell you how much I like your tagline Kisser of Boo-Boos.

Be blessed!

I think the only scary movie that ever had any relevence is The Sixth Sense.

I like most Vampire movies. I wasn't too taken with Interview With a Vampire. It seemed to take itself too seriously. I didn't finish it. I think one reason I like them is "good" usually beats them out in the end, and I didn't see IWaV heading that direction.
The first 2 Alien movies of the series were great. I didn't care for the prison one though, so never came back to see the 4th.
The Bruce Campbell - Evil Dead series was fun.
Nosferatu was a classic and deserves special mention outside of the general "vampires" list.
Horror with a bit of humor thrown in never hurts. American Werewolf in London was fun. When the werewolf made it to Paris, it became very painful.

Hehe, well the punishment for that is a couple days of changing the litter box and all the poopy diapers. Hey, maybe THAT would make a good horror movie. I hope Mrs.Cozmo makes you suffer accordingly.

And thanks.

Love, Heather
