the chucky movies...



I always thought the chucky movies were funny - especially "Bride Of Chucky" - in fact I even bought the soundtrack to that one and it's a great album... maybe if I had seen them as a child they would have been scary, but as a stoned teenager they were pretty damn funny :D

ok not a movie but Michael Jacksons Thriller.



I'm with you on this one. I cried the first time I saw it. In addition, Ametyville Horror (sp??) scared me as well.

Another older movie that freaked me out good was "The Blob". It was the catalyst for some serious nightmares.



It never gave me nightmares, but The Blob (Steve McQueen version) was one of my absolute favorite movies when I was a kid.

yup..Nightmare on Elm Street scared me so much as a little girl. :( I noticed a pattern in the first movie; most of the victims were lying on their backs when killed. Even to this day I cannot sleep lying on my back. I figured, as a wee little one, that if I slept on my back, Freddy would get me. (of course, older taunting brothers telling you that too never helps. >:(:$)

Jaws ( No one is ever the same if they see that damn thing as a kid )
Halloween ( 1st one )

I love horror movies... now as an adult (in age only) I'm always looking for a flick that will actually scare me :)
Of course my last coulple of dives have given me enough of a scare to keep me happy :S

Jason made me look at lakes a little differently and the Omen was a little too much too young, but I think the worst was Freddie.

Seeing all these replies really makes me feel old as most of these movies are ones that scared my kids!

The first movie that scared the (&^*5 out of me was The Tingler with Vincent Price. It shook me so bad that I had to leave the theater before it was done and walk the streets of West Allis, WI all by my lonesome back to my grandparent's house. I think that walk was almost as scary as the movie -- every shadow held at least three nasties out to get me -- well, that's what I felt at the time!

Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

I might not share in your age, but I love The Tingler. I didn't see it until recently, but I really like those old horror flicks, they're fun.

Jaws. I was 12. I was freaked for months. Didn't help that my dad said it was all robots. I was convinced "they" were gonna replace my parents with robots and lift our apartment building with 6 skycrane helicopters and drop it in the shark-infested ocean.

Nothing ever scared me again.



Me too, being born and raised in a small caribbean Island, it took a coupld of months for me to be able to snorkel again.....without the fear a hummungous shark would be waiting for me..

The Wizard of Oz. Really. That whole scene in the wicked witch's forest and castle used to give me nightmares for two nights after I watched it.

Didn't stop me from watching it when it was on TV once a year every year though (this was back in the days before VCR's and cable, when we had to wait a whole year to see our favorite movie again).

Prince of Darkness was scary as hell with the guy dissolving into bugs and posessed people with their skin peeling off. and that chick with the computer:
:You will not be saved by the holy ghost.
:you will not be saved by the god Plutonium.
:In fact,
:YOU WILL NOT BE SAVED!

The Gate scared me when I was small, no gore, just well cultivated sense of dread, disaster and inevitability. Coupla kids accidentally fulfill the conditions necessary to open a gate to the elder chaos gods, who are seriously pissed off about being stuck out there, wielding a bible at them just pissed them off.

Also, the Birds creeped me out



I'm not sure I was exactly scared by The Birds, but it definitely creeped me out. That and the TV show The Invaders.

Now, I just don't watch horror movies. Sci-fi like Aliens is fine, but watching a movie about stupid people doing stupid things to see if I can get scared just doesn't do it for me.

Yeah, I know that's not really how it is, but that's how it ends up for me...

Any of the classic Universal pics. "Frankenstein", "Dracula"(the original), "Wolfman".
"Alien" scared the crap out of me as a teenager.

The most disturbing film I've seen is "Freaks". Made in 1931 by Todd Browning. Really twisted little film. Still afraid to watch "Eraserhead".
