HELP ME: I was supposed to go Rent a Scarry Movie.
 

Ms Boneprone sent me out to go get a scarry movie for tonight's halloween and i coulnt think of anything..

I need help thinking of some movies.

FUCK.... It seems all the scarry movies i watched growing up are low budget slasher movies that are just plain silly today.

Halloween, Friday 13th, Psycho all those are just silly, not scarry.

I know movies like the Shinning are good, but damn ive seen it a million times. We are having people over, so i cant get something i find fun, but somethign that a group of people will be happy with.

As a last resort, i picked up Poltergeist and CuJo.

I havent seen either one of these in YEARS.. Like 16 years!!

I remeber they were scarry at the time, and as far as I know they were done better than the "usual" slasher movies.

I was watching E!'s true Hollywood story on the crew of poltergeist and they are saying they were all cursed, since they all died!!

I thought that was pretty cool, so i picked up the movie.
I dont even remeber it really from the day, I jsut remeber as a kid it was pretty good.


And I picked up CUJO becasue my wife is scared of dogs, so i thought it would be cool.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre... directed by Tobe Hooper, the same guy who made Poltergeist.

Many people to this day insist that the film must have been directed by Steven Spielberg.

Perhaps the reason he didn't want much credit for this movie was because E.T. The Extra Terrestrial was released at the same time, and he didn't want to draw attention away from that. The publicity surrounding this question probably hurt Tobe Hooper, who didn't really go on to a stellar career after this.

I remember seeing that as a kid.
It wasnt that scarry.

It was more the thought that it was a true story that was scarry.

It ended up being just an ordinary slasher movie didnt it?

I just dont remember it being scarry?? It was like 16 years ago though so who knows, maybe it was scarry to me at the time.

I jut dont recall it being scarry.

Wasnt Polterguist scarry?

Last Sun, I was watching the true story on Poltergeist on the E channel... they had a ton of drama :(

yeah i saw that too!
It made me want to see the movie again..

I think the movie was good??

I dont remember?

I saw that movie in 1982 in theaters when I was 8. It scared the shit outta me for a couple of years. :1orglaugh

Even after 20 years, the movie holds up extremely well..

yeah i remember it had an affect on me whan i was young.
I just hope it isn corny now days.

For some reason i dont think you can find "really scary" movies anymore.....
They are all sorta lame, they might have 1 or 2 a bit scary moments but thats IT!:321GFY

Nahh i remember Ailien as the most scary one when i was a kid.

The Evil Dead
Mausoleum
PIN

very good horror movies ... recommended for the "hard to scare" crowd :winkwink:

"Jesus Christ: Vampire Hunter" might be what you're looking for considering your association with Jesus Dialler and Jesus Hitbot.
Besides, I love the tag line:
"The first testament says 'an eye for an eye'
The second testament says 'Love thy neighbor'
The third testament says 'Kick Ass!!'"

Read the review here

Manatu = very scary

The scariest movie of all time.... THE EXORCIST! :repuke

http://theexorcist.warnerbros.com/cmp/splash.html

Evil Dead is the shit.
how about The Shining :thumbsup

Exorcist for sure, its the only movie which ever got me scared...it still does after seeing it 10 times.
They released the directors cut last year, check that one out, a bunch of new scenes in it.

WishMaster was pretty fucking good...think I'll go grab it.

The Wiz - Michael Jackson was DAMN scary in that flick!

TITANIC ! :thumbsup

13 Ghost was alright.. Scares chicks :Graucho

Am I the only one who thought Evil Dead II was better? Fuck it... get em' both.

Madonna's Swept Away.



:xomunch

Event Horizon was creepy

Exorcist III is scary too (or at least it was a few years ago)

Blair Witch? Depends on the viewer I think

Event horizon is the shizznit!!! Still one of the only movies to seriously give me the shivers! WHat about the original nightmare on elm street? Deamons? FOr a good chuckle rent Dead Alive!

You mean Demons ? Kick-ass!

Dead Alive is EXCELENT, great for laughs and excellent gore.

I don´t find Horror Movies scary, i get a fucking kick out of them.
I have hundred of horror movies in my collection, and the only ones that still freak me out are Suspiria, TCM and The Exorcist.

thats it! that movie kicks ass!!

Exorcist !!!
Cool. Forgot about that one!

Urban Legend.

Boneprone I'm like you, I watched a movie as a kid and thought it was scary.
After watching it again several years later I laughed during the film.

I'll recommend 4 movies that are scary, even after watching more then once:

- Event Horizon
- Phantoms

Now if you want classics then go with:
- Exorcist
- Polterguist

Just remember that everyone at your "party" or whatever has likely seen the bottom 2 many times. I would recommend 'Phantoms' of the 4 listed.

Don't forget the 3rd sequel, Army of Darkness.

I just saw Demons yesterday. It's definitely more campy than creepy, but if you like that Dario Argento-style Italian stuff, then it's a great example!

Sphere is kind of creepy.

BURNT OFFERINGS. Nothing scarier except for a sighting of wacko jacko.

just saw The Serpent and the Rainbow this week

pretty spooky :thumbsup
