House of wax is cool, I have amny horror movies on DVD, and im crazy about the grudge, the sound shes making, is really nice. Hide and seek, was okay too I think. The most scary movies I remember is Ghost Ship, I like that one...

Underworld is cool too, but not as cool as Freddy vs Jason. Freddy rules the horror movies. And what about Taxes Changesaw, thats cult...

Salaam.

Anyone who likes horror movies is sick in my view. Totally.

When I was 8 (I think) I watched the first Exorcist. Since then I've not watched another horror movie. No I'm not a wuss, but horror movies aren't just my thing. Like what sick person likes to sit there and get a thrill from scaring their brains out?

Oh, I did watch Constantine by accident some weeks ago though. Wasn't too bad.

wot's wrong wth them...

that's maybe ur opinion

Z · 02-23-2006

Ofcourse it's my opinion. I quite clearly said it was.

And what's wrong with them? Well I would like to know myself. Maybe I just don't like them for their choice of movies. But like I said, who in this world likes to sit down and scare their brains out knowingly? Strange.

**Kittygyal** · 02-23-2006

yea well some are not that scary

alright for a kid maybe they might r they might not be scared but it depends on the film really

**Snowflake** · 02-23-2006

Hmmm.. I think everybody loves to get a bit spooked out when they are young. But I think the fascination wears off with age. Lol, I sound 50!

Exorcist was pathetic- more comedy than horror. Constantine had good effects but wasnt scary. I watched a bit of CSI, 2 days ago and that was scarier. I actually jumped out of my skin a few times. But I'm not into horror anymore. I love comedies now

I personally love horror movies. Despite the fact that many go over the top in the extent and manner of killings, i feel thry give some kind of an insight into the mind of a 'sicko' and the fcat that such people kill spontaneously.
I peersonally loved the exorcist. It freeked me out as i know someone who was once possessed by a jinn and it reminded me a lot of that. However the whole turning of the head was a bit extreme.
Also i loved damien as it provided a religius context based upon the coming of the anti-christ.

Cool- it is important not to look at everthing at the surface. If we do this we will simply see horror movies simply as a number of disgusting murders. We shoild think deeply about what is represented by the Western media and realise that human beings to pose a threat as depicted by horror movies. A matter of trust therefore arises-who do we trust? Horror movies tell us that we cant trust everyone and that we should know well someone whom we bring into our ranks. Otherwise that person may turn agaoinst us.

Thaks for ur comments sis

wow intresting bro

Ok, I think you're getting a little ahead of yourself here. Movies say a lot of things. That's why it's called 'Hollywood'. They're just movies.

Little nephews can watch anything. But they don't get pleasant dreams after. You didn't think that kids do anything, it's because the mind doesn't think in a particular way. They do whatever they're asked, most of the times. So you can forget about that.

**Kittygyal** · 02-23-2006

k chill owt

**Falafel Eater** · 02-23-2006

I dont watch em much, too much horror in the real world. I dont get scared from them either, although SAW was bit OTT for me.. lol

I saw nightmare on elm street when i was 7 years old... then lots of other films like Candyman when i was a teenager etc . So, i guess there is not much to scare me now.
