The Woman In Black has some unsettling scenes.
I love Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness, but the first one freaked my :bou::bou::bou::bou: out bad. That was maybe... six years ago, now, in junior high, but still. I never really understood why people say that one is funny. I just thought it was terrifying.Quote:

A few days after watching it, I was watching the news and they started playing the Jeepers Creepers song. I was like, "Omg, nooooo! It's gonna get me!"
The Ring also made me pretty paranoid. I'd check my vcr constantly to see if anything was in there despite it being like 2000 something and VHS being virtually abandoned. Now when I watch that movie I'm like, "Well, this isn't so bad." Those were the last horror films I've seen that were ever able to frighten me. All the rest I see now are not really scary to me.
I saw The Ring in theaters and when I came back to my house, I turned on my TV and got nothing but static. That was about the scariest Ring-related thing to happen to me.
I was under the covers for half of the Ring. Then I wouldn't stay in the same room alone with a TV for like a week. xD
The Descent, The Thing, and The Others are currently my main considerations. I think we have plenty of good choices here.
Three great choices. Should freak you out suitably. BTW, it's not apparent immediately but The Thing and The Descent actually very similar movies. Enjoy.Quote:

The Haunted Latern is a great feudal era ghost story about star crossed lovers and love that survives the grave. It combines aspects of a samurai drama and Hellraiser. Be forwarned that are some bloody scenes. Every time I see that hovering latern during to O-Bon festival it creeps me out.
The Haunting (original version). It's one of the best haunted house movies ever that relies on physchological effect more than special effects. The remake is great looking but empty, although it's instructive to watch them together.
The Legend of Hell House is in some ways similar, a group is assembled into the house, although these are experts trying to prove the existence of life after death. Boy, do they ever prove it.
Uzumaki (no relation to Naruto) is about a town haunted, not by ghosts, but the shape of the spiral. If you watch it, beware of looking around you after and seeing the spiral everywhere.
Event Horizon is basically a haunted house in space. It's well done and looks spectacular, but man does it get gory. And the director even complains on his commentary track about having to tone it down.
The twerp will veto anything too gory. She can't even watch surgical procedures on House without freaking out and looking away.
tape her eyes open and tie her down then make her watch saw until shes desensitizedQuote:

I'm not a big fan of horror movies... I am a huge fan of good/bad vampire films though, alot of them hold up in the Thriller/Horror genre so...
Check out "Let The Right One In" it's got a vampire and a few scary scenes but mainly it's a drama. Reckon you'll enjoy it.Quote:

The Thing is very gory? Well I suppose there goes that one off the list. :p
I can watch gory movies, I just close my eyes. xD
sephire, I wanna get into more vampire movies too. I'm gonna watch Let the Right One In tonight maybe~~ but there seems to be a lot of good vamp movies out there. xD
