truly scary movies?

[Jim]

Oh wow, I didn't know that Caine played Dr. Jekyl.

Sounds quality.

By the way, extra points for using the IMDB. 

Great site, and always a laugh to try getting from one actor to another, if you're bored in class...

...Or, maybe that's just me.

I adhore that site i owe much of my film knowledge to it.

I go on looking for one bit of information and end up on for ages, going from one actor to another.  It's wonderful when your watching something on TV and and you think, wait a minute who the fuck is that dude i'm sure i've seen him in other stuff, with the magic of that site you can have both of those questions answered...

slasher films arent scary theyre just cool. i found the 6th sense and the ring very scary. after watching them i couldnt sleep properly for a while 

[pilferk]

Oh, and Jagged Edge.  Good, suspenseful movie.

On the Caine "Jack the Ripper" movie...I've actually been looking for it on Region 1 DVD forever.  It's a goodie.

I obsoletely loved "The Others" with Nicole Kidman. Scared the hell out of me!

[Sterlingdog]

The Others scared me too, but only the first time.  Its really not that good the second time. 

Scream actually scared me the first time I saw it, but then again I was watching it alone in a dark house.

I think scary movies only scare you once, cause then the thrill is gone 
I think The Excorsist is very scary and The entity was pretty scary too

[Skeletor]

I'm surprised some of you found the 6th Sense scary.. I thought of it more as a beautiful, yet sad movie - at least as far the ending is considered.

[$$$$]

I found the 6th sense depressing. It left me disturbed.

I agree. It made me cry at the end. It's more spiritual than scary.

[D]

Shocker made me have nightmares when I was a kid for some reason


Exorcist definitely, Ring was scary


6th sense was scary because of the cold feeling on your neck being a dead person, when Id get cold after that Id freak out.


I thought the First Child's Play was scary, when Chucky is talking and the mother opens up his battery pack and no batteries are inside, I threw a "My Buddy" doll I had away after that.


Anyone ever watched a movie called "Raw Head Rex"

its a rare movie but if u ever get the chance watch it, it is freaky as hell.

[ClintroN]

The Shining bored me silly - no scares there

the Shining is a fucking masterpiece mate what the hell r' you talkin' about....freaky too

[D]

The Shining is a shitty fucking movie.


Read the book, it is incredible, Kubrick totally fucking Raped Stephen King's novel and turned it into a Gay Piece of shit.


Read the book and u will see what Im talking about.

Aye. To an extent.

If we're talking about beautiful though, have you seen Unbreakable? The film is criminally under-rated.

[Skeletor]

Yeah, people say that. It was on TV a while ago, but I was doing something else at the same time so I sort of missed it :/ I'll have to check it out the next time.

[Jim]

You really do.

Going into it, I knew nothing about it and was expecting something in the same vein as Sixth Sense. But it really isn't. I'm a huge fan of well spoken dialogue. In comparrison, facial expression and the like doesn't get a look in. It's hard to define what I mean, because I don't mean language that is too poetic (that's good too, though), but just that it is spoken...

Well, if you see the film, I could direct you to at least examples of perfect scenes that show what I mean. After watching that film, I rewound to the beggining of the last scene (it's not that long, the last one) and watched it again. I must have watched scene about four or five times.

People complain that the 'twist' is obvious. Which, if you fully understand it, it really isn't. When watching, you'll probably get a grasp of the twist, maybe, but you probably won't be able to expand on the reason behind it sufficently.

Those who complain about the twist, really, really don't understand the film. It's an incredible film, and the twist is just...Nice. Well, it's actually better than nice. Just...See it.

Honestly I think there are no longer scary movies. Just watch the skeleton key, or the exorcism of emily rose, .... average.

I thought the First Child's Play was scary, when Chucky is talking and the mother opens up his battery pack and no batteries are inside, I threw a "My Buddy" doll I had away after that.

that reminds me of an episode of seinfeld where george finds a doll that looks like his mother and hes sitting in the coffee shop and he hears the doll say "dont eat so fast u cant taste it!" and then he yells back at it and everyone looks at him.  . the ring scared me the second time i saw it and i even stopped the movie halfway through. its weird that when i saw the ring 2 it didnt scare me at all i guess its cause i knew what to expect

[Sterlingdog]

That's a great episode!  And that doll was freaky looking.

I thought the ring was spooky, but the ending pissed me off.  It was just so cheesy, the whole "who are we going to show the tape to, mommy?"  just irritated me.  Like was I supposed to walk out of the theater freaked out because I had seen the tape?  Might work on a 12 year old.

It worked on me. I was scared everytime the phone rang after I watched it. 

The part I didn't like about The Ring, was the lack of history on the demonic little girl. It never explained why she was evil or where she came from. I have to know the facts!
