Here's something I just thought of today...
Have there ever been any werewolf movies that have scared you? I mean, are there any that have been scary like a horror movie should be, not scary because they're horrible.
I think Dog Soldiers was the only one that got anywhere near scaring me. Even back when I was susceptable to being frightened by horror movie commercials, werewolf movies never seemed to bother me.

I've never been scared by a werewolf movie, but then again...I don't really like scary movies. Besides, a good horror movie doesn't have to be scary. I haven't seen a lot of movies that scared me, but the ones I have really did make me shit my pants  |

Hmmm...beyond the "BOO!" type jump scenes, there's not been many movies that have ever creeped me out to any extent.
Guess that's what happens when your earliest media memories are watching things like Kolchak: The Night Stalker, Night Gallery, Ghost Story....
Werewolf movies...they're too much fun for me. Can't imagine one really scraring me.

Oh, John Carpenter's "The Thing" didn't scare me, but it made me nauseous. I'd just come home from Sonic (the drive-in, not the hedgehog) and saw it was on TV. I'd been meaning to watch it, so I left it on. Five minutes later, I had to turn it off, because I was losing my appetite for the food I'd just bought.

A friend of mine (and my "boss" down at the studio) is a professional Cameraman/Editor (I expect to start my studies for the same goal next year) and every now and then he tries to raise some money and make a short film. His (to my knowledge) only horror film is "Biggetje" (Piglet in dutch). Set in 1890, "raw materials" are being stolen from an anatomy school, eye balls, hands, etc. Well, this guy is hired as a night watchmen and locked in the main chamber where all these deformed animals and body parts are stored. This is the first 2 minutes of the film. The rest (10 min?) consists of him reading a book, looking around...and being slowly and systematically freaked out by stuff around him. He notices a human head in a dark corner (ultra eerie, candle light and all) and a few minutes later he discovers that it's eyes opened...and it kept looking at me This little gem might be shown at festivals in the future (or, my idea, be edited in some sort on anathology) so I won't spoild it for you...but it was the scarriest shit I EVER saw! |

AWWIL scared me when I first saw it, but I was only like eight, so ...
The only film that still scares me is The Exorcist. Don't know why. All the other zombie/demon movies I have no problem with. I think I'll blame Linda Blair for being generally creepy.
