Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year. They've been showing some good movies this weekend. OMG..BRAVO has been showing 100 Scariest movie moments all week long. Pretty cool..they're showing it tonight and tomorrow.
So far today, I've been a couch potato and watched Dracula (1979 version), Silver Bullet, American Werewolf in London and Paris. I'm staying home helping my mom out since she had knee surgery yesterday. Been watching movies all day!!
Watched CandyMan and Excorcist II last night. Damn..I love Halloween!!

I FINALLY saw Halloween from beginning to end. Woohoo!! I had never seen the first 20-30 minutes of that movie before today. Halloween II and IV were on. "Queen of the Damned," "Scream II" and "I Know What You Did Last Summer" are on right now. "Friday the 13th" wasn't on anywhere as far as I know. That's usually a Halloween staple.

I think tonight is the Halloween episodes marathon of the Roseanne show on Nick at Nite. Those were always the best episodes. :yesnod:

Cool!! Just rented some movies to watch later today too. I was looking for cheesy movies like "Don't go in the Woods" or "Don't Answer the Phone"..couldn't track'em down. Oh well. I remember watching cheesy scary movies on USA and TBS back in the 80's.

I don't like the fake corney scarey movies, such as Freddy Kruger, Nightmare On Elmstreet, etc.

The movies we watched were: The Others & What Lies Beneath

I like ghost movies or scarrey movies that actually seem a little real. Smiles.

We watched Willard the night before and that freaked me out a bit, as I normally really like rodents. In fact, rats are great pets, but in that movie they most definately had a different appeal. Although, I felt sorry for Ben, he was the adorable chubby rat. I felt sorry for him.

Oh, another scarey movie that rocks is Event Horizon, it gets under your skin...very real. It is more a sci-fi thriller, but is so scarey. Oh, The Shiny scares me so much too.....

Okay, let me get this straight....Freddy Krueger is fake and corny, but a haunted spaceship is real? :lol:

No, but the feelings derived from the entire aspect of the Black Hole....Didn't that get under your skin? Oh boy, it creeped me out and still does creep me out everytime I see that movie. Smiles.
;)

Freddy Krueger does scare me at all. His costume is so fake looking.

Ok, you can throw tomatoes at me, but I have to feel it, I can't just watch somthing and go with it if I don't feel it.....because quite frankly, I will fall to sleep...... :)

Didn't get under my skin at all. Horror for me has to be something believable that could possibly, even in the remotest sense, happen to me. The odds are stacked pretty high against me ever travelling in space. :lol:

However, an evil spirit invading your dreams? Now THAT'S scary.

Yep, I feel the same way. Which is why I love horror movies made in the 60s & 70s. :)

Michael Myers in the first Halloween was believable, as was Jason in the first Fri. the 13th. But when Hollywood keeps killing people off & bringing them back to life - it's so not scary to me. Science-fiction horror movies don't scare me either. 'Alien(s)' was a great movie, but it didn't scare me in the least.

Why do cable companys play the same movies over and over again. They have played I Know What You Did Last Summer everyday last week and this week but they have not played Friday the 13th.

LMAO

I was 16 and in Ohio. My little cousins were crying that Pumpkin Head was going to get me. I had NO clue what they were talking about. I thought my uncle must have scared them in the fields or something. :lol:

Well, that movie is one of those thrillers that is full of suspense and that type of movie always gets me jumping in fear, more than the other horror type films where they are trying to hard to scare you...Giggles....

What Lies Beneath & The Others seem very real as well.
