It's the only opportunity I get
The other half doesn't like horrors, unless they have vamps or zoms... he's a picky so and so! :)
I'll probably end up watching Creep, Insidious, Wrong Turn, Frigth Night, Last House and then look on Netflix for something shockingly awful but entertaining...

It's just another 'Boo!' horror film, sadly.
Give me proper horrors anyday (The Omen), or at least decent 'Boo' films.(Candyman)

I thought The Devil Inside looked good
but it got absolutely slated on IMDb.

Most of the time I don't trust IMDb opinions on films, mainly because I end up loving the films that everyone else slates! Haha

I was always very partial to Hellraiser and also Wishmaster. Oooh I might watch An American Werewolf in London now that I think of it.

Oh you should
It's truly awful, but also brilliant! I think someone gets chopped in half with piano wire at one point - it's not a party 'til that happens! :)

It still can't beat The Omen where the guy gets his head chopped off with the sheet of glass - that gave me nightmares as a kid!

I agree
I think that's more freaky because it looks more real. The head scene is so blatently a papier-mache noggin' it makes it more comical.

Hellraiser 3 is better than the first one in terms of cheesieness.

Oh, you know what, I can't believe I've only just thought of this, while your hubby and my wife are away we should totally hook up.

It's only a problem when I try to sleep, but my dreams are usually fucked up without horror-based inspiration so I'm cool with it! :)

You should go and see the Abraham Lincoln movie then.
I went to see it a couple of weeks ago when it came out. I was so frightened by it that I was hugging my knees to my chest and crouching on my seat so I could run away at any moment. And I screamed out loud more than once.
but then, like I said, I am a big wuss with scary movies.

I would like to see the film, but I need to read the book first, I've got it on Kindle - just waiting to finish Grisham-trash first! :)

Haven't had a chace to read it yet though.

It's a bit silly, but good train-fodder! I think it's the same guy that wrote the Abraham Lincoln book isn't it?

It's my holiday read
I'm going to read all three back to back, but I am already prepared to be annoyed. I think I'll back it up by reading the shitty Scott Mariani trilogy - at least it's not trying to be anything but a vamp/action romp.

I have all three of those books, they're great fun to read.
You should try Sense and Sensibility and Seamonsters, or Jayne Slayer.

ahaha it's sitting on my bookshelf.
I bought it a few months ago and I've read it twice already. It's hilariously ludicrous.
