Holloween's around the corner.
And although I like scary movies as it is, it's almost mandatory to watch them around this time.
So name your favorites.
I'll start with some classics like...
Night of the living dead.
Holloween
Evil Dead
I just watched Return of the living dead last night. Classic comedy horror.

I do like the Walking Dead, but I'm not sure that qualifies as a "scary movie."

I love horror movies and I have watched everyone of them. One horror movie I have only watched once and will never watch it again is the exorcist. No horror movie can even come close to that movie for me.
I love all horror movies and can watched them over and over again with the exception of the exorcist, you could not pay me enough to make me watch that sh1!t ever again.On the list for Bannukah

Love them. Texas chain saw massacre is good. I like the ones that have a hint of "holy shti, this could really happen".

I would enjoy a scary movie if I could ever find one that was scary. Closest I came was IT by Stephen King. The ending ruined it though. Effing fake spider alien was so stupid.

Lol. The Exorcist broke the mold. BH, have you seen The Innskeepers? I think that's it. Tricks you in the beginning as being innocent. Then, it starts to freak you out.Originally Posted by bodyhard
If you have not seen it, I hereby challenge Bodyhard to watch it and report back

The Exorcist gave me many sleepless nights as a youngster. Definitely set the bar back then. I don't like the gore movies, not cause they're scary but just predictable so don't do anything for me. Reminds of that recent Geico commercial with the kids that hide in the garage behind the chainsaws. Makes perfect fun of the classic gore movie.
I like ones like Paranormal Activity. So the ones where you feel it could happen is what gets me.
Then there's the classics with Vincent Price and of course a good Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein works for me too

13 ghosts was a good movie. Its hard to find decent ghost movies.
Saw.and Final Destination changed the playing field.

Never really been into the genre either, but the first ones to pop up in my mind that I liked as a kid are Cujo (Stephen King) and The Birds (Hitchcock).

10-20-2014, 05:46 PM #11I forgot about IT. I like that one too. Sad that the book was so much better. Generally the books are better, but this one wasn't even close.Originally Posted by InternetTuffGuy

The lady that "The haunting in Connecticut" was based on lives in my town. We worked at her house once. She is some kind of ghost/spirit chaser now. I think her name is Carmen Reed.
