In the spirit of Friday the 13th and courtesy of my 19 year old daughter Beth who loves horror movies:
Question of the Day:
Does the blonde(in the horror movie) in the nightie deserve to die for going in the basement/woods/attic etc. where she hears a noise?
Ok, I Jest. That is a morbid question to ask(but really she is dumb for going in that basement!)
REAL QUESTION OF THE DAY:
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE OR WORST SCARY MOVIE AND /OR MEMORY OF A SCARY MOVIE?

I love the old time horror movies, The Mummy, Frankenstein, Dracual and The Werewolf( there wolf) couldn't resist. Boris Karlof, Bela Lugosi, Lon Chaney and all the others. Those are classics.
its more of a psychological thriller but it keeps me jumping. the book is even scarier.
Probably the most significantly scary one was seeing Silence of the Lambs. I had to stay up the rest of the night talking about it. I don't think I slept until daylight arrived.
I hate scary movies, but my boyfriend loves Phantasm. Fortunately I don't really remember watching this, but I won't mention that, because then we will have to watch it tonight. No way am I watching some horror film on the real Friday the 13th.
i should've known better-- i first saw this in the company of my old roommate, who saw that it was being played on one of our Pay Per View channels. with a weird look plastered on his face, Seamas turned to me and said, "Wanna watch it?"
Seamas was a grown man. that look? -it was an amalgamy: Delight, Trepidation, and Christian Guilt.
the look clinched it for me. "Fine, whatever. Never seen it."
he turned out the light... and scrambled under a coverlet like some gargantuan toddler, Irish eyes wide.
it wasn't long before i understood.
Fun Fact: long after ev'ryone else in that artists' flat was a'bed, i tossed and turned. -i sh*t thee not: a THUNDERstorm hit us out of the deep blue night.
and lightning tore the front yard's elm asunder.
a...SUNDER.
big, nasty boom.
i probably peed.
and prayed.
true story, believe it or not. (i hear the film was based on one, too.)
Where the heck do they think that is going to get them except a jump off the roof....silly characters never know what to do~~
I remember seeing The Shining.....and the two little girls on bikes are creepy as hell~
Karen
a game for you
*snork*
sorry Ann!
thanks all!!
Then Nightmare on Elm street came out. A cousin of mine and I went to see it together. I won't mention her name but her initials are M.A.N.D.I. The movie didn't really scare me but my cousin brought a knife in the room when we went to bed that night and proceeded to scrape it against a pipe in the room. It sisn't scare but gave me the creeps!!! Thanks M.A.N.D.I!!! Love ya...
and Yup, the girl deserves it!
*everyone look out for Ann!!!
Gwen I hate stairs with no backs(risers) on them..I always think something is gonna grab my leg!
It's the crazy blonde galS who didn't deserve to die to begin with!
Bwah! I'm here to help, ann.
Don't even get me started on the shower!
Rhonda, don't tell me you are blonde too!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
I jest, I jest!
*as I run away
dun dun
dundundundundundun!!!!
tee hee
Most memorable Scare: The silver orb in phantasm. I was young. it was at a drive in theatre, but it has stayed with me throughout my life................
And about the blonde, yep, deserves 1001 deaths. She NEVER learns.
Poltergeist, i saw on TV in Houston, staying, alone, in someone's condo, turned on all the lights and locked everything!
The only scary movie that ever freaked me out was The Exorcist, because it deals with a topic that is too frightening to think it could actually happen. I didn't sleep much for a month after watching that one. And it didn't help that my only daughter at that time was about the same age and looked like Linda Blair!
