Movies that have put the willies up you.
Are there any movies that have really put the willies up you, made you afraid to sleep with the light off or have to spend the night at a mate's house instead?

There are a few that have done that for me :-
- The Exorisim of Emily Rose
- The Fourth Kind
- The McPherson Tape
- That clay animation thing with Mark Twane

I haven't seen Paranoid Activity, or it's sequal, but I'd like too.

I wonder if anyone fancies a Creepy Movie Night this month?

I cannot steel myself to watch the Exorcist. My mum borrowed a copy from a friend of hers and sent me and my siblings off to bed so she could watch it. My bedroom was above the living room, and the sound of it freaked me out.

It's not that bad.
Scariest film I ever saw was "The Orphanage" for a proper ghost story scares. It has a happy ending though, so although you're really tense watching it, you don't get scared afterwards.

When I watched The Ring I got really creeped out by my TV the following night.

Also, I found the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre really unpleasant.

"insidious" was quite good in the cinema, made me jump a lot
but like all horror movies of the supernatural kind, it is sooooo much scarier before you see the demonic things. the terror of what might be lurking is much greater.

"the strangers" was the most frightening slasher flick i've seen in years. i got a tension headache watching that!

both good if you like horror movies, though.

otherwise "watership down" and BOB in "twin peaks" remain the scariest things ever.

Oddly Event Horizon was a bit intense when I saw it at the cinema, but then I saw it on DVD and it was shit.

Blair Witch made me travel sick, which combined with the hangover shales and sweats that I had caused me to throw up. But then again, Pride and Prejudice made me throw up when I was hungover, so I don't think it has much to do with the film itself.

Actually, that zombie Big Brother thing they did a few years ago scared me a bit, too.

And things that move when you're not looking. You know when the camera shows a room, looks away, and when they look back the thing has moved, like the Weeping Angels? That scares the living jeebus out of me.
