SF, I'm a great fan of horror movies and watched a movie that was recommended to me called THE BABADOOK which was a big disappointment.

I am probably the only person I've evert met who saw no horror in THE SHINING nor any other of King's Horror efforts.

Here are the movies that scared me at the time that I originally saw them:

The Night of the Living Dead .... Saw this one is a 95% empty, very old theater in a worn out neighborhood .... all of which somehow added to the horror of this flick.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre I and II. Especially the second episode when the guy cuts off some guy's face and wears it.

Children Should Not Play With Dead Things.

And no longer scarrie but was damn scarrie when it first came out ... DIABOLIQUE. (THE FRENCH ONE.)

And any movie in which I know the actor and he can't act worth shit.
A good director and a decant editor can make any shitty actor look half way decent/scarrie on that screen.

Am I the only one on this board who thought Guardians of the Galaxy 2 stunk as bad as it diid stunk?

I saw Alien first run in 1979 at the old Criterion theatre in Times Square.  It was late May and I caught the 10:30 AM (or so) showing.  It was a full house, and the AC was off, so a mist formed above the crowd - imagine how that added to the experience.

I though GOTG was pretty bad - is II worse than I?

babadook  what a stupid movie. Not scary at all.

babadook  what a stupid movie. Not scary at all.

It's not a scary movie. It's a movie about dealing with grief (and bitcoins / bad creditrating)

The Babadook is considered to be the embodiment of grief. As the film progresses, the six stages play out as the following:

Denial
Ever since her husband died, Amelia has been avoiding the issue to the point where she barely acknowledges his existence, this has caused her to distance herself from anyone who tries to talk to her about it, which leaves her isolated except for her son. Whenever Amelia tries to ignore or get rid of it, the Babadook comes back even scarier than before.

Anger
The Babadook threatens to make Amelia kill her son and dog. After a lack of sleep, Amelia snaps at Samuel and their relationship gets progressively worse, until she seriously considers ending his life.

Fear
The Babadook makes itself visible to Amelia, spooking her by hiding in the background at first, then by turning into a big black silhouette and cornering her in her bedroom.

Bargaining
Amelia tries to hide from the Babadook in her basement. There she has a vision of her dead husband, but it's really the Babadook in disguise. He tells her to give him Samuel and everything will be fine.

Bitcoins
Accepting that Goodrum rules this scene in his trailer, The Babadook becomes terrified of Kielbasa.

Acceptance
It's only when Amelia stops being scared and comes to terms with her husband's death that the Babadook loses its power over her.

Autopsy of Jane Doe was alright by today's shit  movie standards.

"1408" with John Ballsack Cusack was pretty good.

[funk51]

when i saw the original Texas chain saw massacre in the theater years ago... the few people in the audience actually cheered every time the maniac fired up his chainsaw. i thought it was rather strange...also it was part of a double feature the other movie was a karate flick.. also strange IMO.

[ChristopherA]

Bwahahaha!!!

[falco]

"Don't Breathe." Definitely a "nail biting" movie.

Watched it last year. Very good.

[SF1900]

Watched it last year. Very good.

It had an eerie feel to it.

I enjoy movies where they don't rely on gore or things popping out at you to keep you on the edge of your seat.

These days, thrillers and horrors have to rely on overly dramatic scenes to try and scare people.

Totally clueless.

Hey, MOONTRAN, I was a special invited guest back then to view ALIEN before it was open to the public and even before the sound-track was complete.

And even though some of the sounds were yet to be added, that was one of the few motion picture occasions in which I witnessed the audience come to their feet and show their approval during the closing credits.

And H.R. Giger’s original designs for the first Alien production helped immensely.

Also saw the special pre-release showing of the first Indiana Jones but this time the audience actually came to their feet as soon as the words "Steven Speilberg Presents" flashed on the screen at the very start and then they continued to go crazy throughout the film.

And one more time in which the movie audience reacted with much enthusiasm .....The Star Wars opening scene in which the space-ship passes overhead and seems to never stop.

These audiences were mostly people who were involved within the production of major Hollywood motion pictures so their 'approval' was a major sign of success.
