I normally laugh, because they are so ridiculous. But stuff like the creepier X-Files episodes scare the shit out of me. All that tension, suspense and hidden terror gets to me big time. I check behind doors, and not for lost pennies either. When the X-Files first came out I watched one episode and then did not watch another one for a good two years. After I realised the series was brilliant I steeled myself into watching the creepier episodes. Maybe you are just scarier than any of the characters in these movies so you are not scared in turn? I am a yellow daffodil in comparison.

Rather hammer futiley at the locked door than just sit and ignore it. Obviously finding a way to get through the locked door would be even better though. - Paul Watson, My Ignorance

No not those similarly titles crap films, but rather scary movies in general... They don't exist. They are a figment of girlie imaginations, the sales pitch of tissue companies run by female board members, and the by product of allowing women to write film scripts. I don't want to appear sexist, :-O, but that is how I have grown to see it. Now I've seen plenty of movies that were supposed to be horrifically frightening, that supposedly caused suicides through fear alone, and I am a person who really deeply concentrates on the television and gets drawn in to the exclusion of all exterior senses... yet I have not felt genuinely scared once. Not once. If you can name me one film - just one out of the millions out there - that will actually cause me to become scared then I will send you a goat's heart on a silver platter. Please, I want to experience this phenomenon

I'm not into scary movies -- getting scared is not my idea of time/money well spent. However, I do remember two movies from Stephen King which I considered particularly good and creepy: - Pet Sematary - Misery Still, my favorite Stephen King flik is Christine, which isn't really scary, but definetely entertaining. :-) Regards, Alvaro

The one who scaried me the most is between a movie and a documentary: it's called "Nuit et Brouillard"[^](Night and Fog). I've seen it years ago but can't still forget some of the pictures shown.
A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it, bearing within him the image of a cathedral. Antoine de Saint-Exupery (1900-1944)

Pokemon. Any of them. Scary stuff to have to sit through, believe me. btw, I'm not so partial to goat's hearts, and it might go off a bit in the post, so a bar of chocolate will do, ta. Debbie

One movie that really seems to have made an impression on me is "Jacobs Ladder", a movie about a Vietnam veteran that suddenly gets all these weird hallucinations (or are they?...). I am not sure if you would find i scary though, because all of my friends just found it weird. Oh, and then there is the series called "Kingdom", it's produced by Lars Von Trier, and besides being quite funny it also have the quality of being actually scary!.
