Who never gets scared by horror movies?
Edited on Thu Nov-18-04 11:28 AM by Arkana
I don't. They're all too predictable. To name a few lame ones:

Blair Witch Project

Sorry, this one was a dud. The fact that it was so low-budget (based on the premise of a student film) was a feeble attempt to market it. I couldn't concentrate on the effing film, cause the camera was jerking around like it was strapped to the head of a hyperactive seal.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (Remake)

Puh-leeze. You know the main female lead? The one who lives? She was so effing annoying that I was rooting for the deformed freak with the chainsaw by the end.

Scream, Scream 2

La-ame! Scream 2 especially. The ending was crap--long, drawn out, and rather anticlimactic. The mother ends up being the psycho?

The Ring

Maybe this one got me a little, if because of nothing but pure freakishness. But the idea of a figure climbing through a television has been beaten to death.

3. Never
Like you said. They're too predictable, formulaic. I'm still waiting for someone to make a really scary movie.

4. I don't get scared
sometimes I am disturbed by the imagery, but never scared by the films or events within.

5. I don't
But I have to admit, "What Lies Beneath" had some tense moments...

6. I do not
get "scared" but some have "freaked me out" and by that I mean it is a little harder to sleep thinking abuout them. The two that freaked me were "The Ring" (2002) and another called "Susperia"(1977).
