Pick a scary film for tonight

seun · Oct 31, 2009

I've pre-warned my wife we're going to watch a scary film tonight. Her choices are:

Nightmare on Elm Street
'Salem's Lot
Deathwatch
Silent Hill
Evil Dead
Blair Witch
American Werewolf
Love Actually (OK, not really. I still haven't recovered from the first time I saw it).

Which one would you pick?

American Werewolf in London

Another vote for AWiL. Fucking fantastic film. Never ages.

The people have spoken. Good choice.

This is my BOOM stick!

(Hey, Wayne - gimme some sugar, baby).

Kathleen42 · Oct 31, 2009

Another vote fro AWiL since that's probably what I'm going to watch.

Shouldn't I be the one with the boom-stick?

Also, if anyone is looking for a fun alternative to AWiL, Ginger Snaps is a great little werewolf film.

If you haven't seen The Descent, that's a good one as well.

BenPanced · Oct 31, 2009

The first time I watched A Nightmare on Elm Street, I needed a light comedy to follow it up with, so I watched Mommie Dearest.

Gynn · Oct 31, 2009

Not on your list:

Pet Sematary
The Sixth Sense

jennontheisland · Oct 31, 2009

Evil Dead.

Rocky Horror Picture Show starts on the local station in an hour. I'll be watching it.

ChaosTitan · Oct 31, 2009

I would have said A Nightmare on Elm Street--classic horror. Love it. That, or Silent Hill.

My movie choice for the night is Cabin Fever.

That one was almost too scary.

jodiodi · Oct 31, 2009

I'd just play Silent Hill (the game).

We're watching Ghost Hunters Live.

Kathleen42 · Oct 31, 2009

How did I never realize Nurse Alex was Jessica Six?

Gregg · Oct 31, 2009

None of the above.

Watch the best of all:

The Exorcist

p.s. admitidly, I am not a horor movie fan. But I was terrified by The Exorcist (the book)

We went with Frailty and watched American Werewolf last night. It has aged a little - the taxi that costs £1.50 and the porn cinema that charges £2.80

I can't watch that movie. Barely made it through the first time, and I had to cover my eyes a lot. The creatures didn't scare me, it was the women going down in those damn caves. Crawling in little spaces. I kept yelling at the tv, "What the hell are you doing? Are you crazy? You could get stuck. There might be bugs in there." My hubby thought I was crazy for missing the point of the movie. Sorry, but I am very claustrophobic and those scenes, I was in a panic imagining being stuck down there.

I so need to watch these movies again. Love them. Love Bruce. The B movie King

Celia Cyanide · Nov 3, 2009

Off that list? I would pick Evil Dead or Silent Hill. I might be more of a fan of AWiL if I could stand David Naughton, which I can't.

I would recommend Ginger Snaps, The Ring, The Orphanage, Them, A Tale Of Two Sisters, or Who Can Kill A Child?
