I saw "Interview with a vampire" yesterday... or at least most of it. That movie bloody freaked me out. Still have shakes thinking of it.
GOD said:LOL!!! Oy. Well.... I can't say the exact same thing about her. It seems that I have a rather different taste in movies then a lot of guys. I would even go so far as to say that many would be considered "Chick Flicks".

I've been to Buchenwald and Dachau several times...Blender said:The ones that get to me are about the Nazi death camps. Movies such as The Pianist, Schindlers List and Life is Beautiful.

OMG...I've been trying to remember the name of that movie. I saw it in the theatre in '58 or '59...i was six or seven. I had nightmares about that movie for weeks then, and that damn mantis still shows up in my dreams occasionally...almost 50 years later.Ceej said:Seattle 1966ish. Three/Four-year-old me wants a drink of water and wanders in to see "The Deadly Mantis" devouring North America on TV.
Lounge Lizard said:I wonder why you remember that part? Hmmm.... LOL Women! *wink*

I have never been able to sit through that one from beginning to end.
I tried to go with a group from work a couple of years ago when they re-released it in theaters. I got up and left the theater when she came down the stairs upside down!!

The Exorcist didn't frighten me. Sure, I can find the theology gripping, but shock value? Nada.
GOD said:Just wanted to be clear about something... are we talking about when it origianly came out. As in it came out or shortly after... or are we talking about now. Reason I ask is that if we are talking about watching it now... well compaired to others it might be pretty low on the scary list. We are pretty disensitized now. When this came out though compaired to others it was pretty up there.....its like the movie Alien. By todays standard... well... but when it first came out people were peeing their pants..... IMHO
dancingbarefoot said:The movie came out before I was born, so I didn't see it until my teen years (early 90s). I can agree that we're more desensitized than earlier, but my parents were pretty strict about not letting us watch scary or violent stuff. It wasn't that the topic wasn't potentially disturbing (I take the idea of demon possession and religious damnation pretty seriously), but I just found the movie very unspectacular.
TWolf10 said:Stir of Echoes was a great creepy movie. It came out around the same time as the Sixth Sense and was overshadowed by it at the time, but I thought it was better. Sixth Sense was a long, slow movie for a big payoff, Stir of Echoes was kind of creepy all the way through.
