One I forgot about that I watched is called: "From Beyond." At the time, I thought that was was a bit scary.

Heh heh, I have a good laugh every time I switch the channel to AMC and find that they are playing one of those Friday the 13th movies, and I hear that sound chhhh kkkkk which I was told was supposed to be Jason saying: "Jason Kill" with an echo sound to it. Ever since I saw the first one of this series, I never could get into it and be serious when watching it. I laughed too much, turned the channel; and never look back.
Now that THAT is over with for another year. (the horror marathon) I think AMC is going to play tonight or tomorrow: Cool Hand Luke. I can never get enough of that movie. ;-)) -
Heh heh, I remember: American Werewolf in London all too well. The night it was first shown at the local Cine 1&2 Theaters, I was spending the night at my friend Brian's house. My father gave me $10.00 to take with me. Anyway, we could not get a ride to the theaters, so we walked about 3 miles. Once there, we bought the tickets and went inside. We were the only two people in the theater.
The movie finally started and after about the first 10 minutes, I walked out of the theater. That movie has the distinction of being the first movie and only movie, I ever walked out on. I told my friend to stay inside and watch it while I messed around outside the theater. -

I was really young when I watched "Psyco"...And even to this day I get the creeps while showering.
The second movie the left it's mark on me was " The Exorcist"...
I cannot sit through movies like, "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre"...
Now I love a good Vampire or Werewolf movie...
Hmmm...Duke as a Vampire....He could bite me any night...
Hi Princess Cindy, glad to see you back here and, I couldn't agree with you more in that I could never watch movies like: Tx Chainsaw Massacre et el.
Many years ago, I watched a very good movie with Bob Hope in it called: The Cat And The Canary. I don't remember much about it but, I think it had several of the more famous villains in it, such as the Wolfman.

Technically not a horror film as such, but when I first saw "Alien" on the big screen, it scared the socks off me!
Cheers - Jay
I had completely forgotten about Alien. I saw that movie when it first came on HBO in 1981 and because I was forced to watch it on pain of being beat up by my older brother. The only part that really bothered me about this movie was when that alien burst from some guy's chest. I've hated that movie since. The movie I missed because of being forced to watch it was: The Big Red One - which was playing on The Movie Channel. Thank goodness that when Alien was over, HBO played Hondo-which I saw for the first time. After Hondo, they played-believe it or not, they showed: The Big Red one - which stars Lee Marvin, Mark Hamill, Robert Carradine and Siegfried Rauch.
Gimme a Western or a War movie, over a horror movie; any day. :teeth_smile: -
The one and only horror film that scared me was Jaws. I was I think 6 or 7, at the time I went to see it on the big screen. We stood in line for 8 hours, to watch this film. The line was four blocks long.
I laughed at the first two Halloween movies as well as the one and only Firday the 13th movies I saw all the way through-which was the first one.
Last Mother's Day, I think it was either Spike TV or Fox or whatever, that played asickening movie that I mostly watched-which is called: Wrong Turn. I noticed this ""film"" has a sequal to it.
Anyway, of the more modern horror flicks that I actually liked are: The Fog, which was a John Carpenter film I believe. This movie had: Ardianne Barboux, Hal Holbrook and a young and pretty: Jamie Lee Curtis.
To me, the best horror films, are the original Lon Chaney movies like: The Wolfman, Frankenstein etc.
Oh, I have also seen I know what you did last summer and I think the first "Scary Movie."
