The zombie baby bothered me. Scariest movie had to be Halloween back in the day because of my age and I wasn't really used to kids being in scary movies, it bothered me.; ▶ Reply to This

I actually can't stand the first hour of the movie at all. The movie that does however still tend to get me after all these years is The Shining. There is just something about that damn hotel and Jack Nicholson that freaks me out.; ▶ Reply to This

It brought a whole new meaning to scary because of the fact that the girl was possesed and the fact that it was based on a true story. The fact that something is watching you and you can not see it even if it is right in front of you is pretty scary to me.; ▶ Reply to This

NetFlix doesn't have it. I saw it in a film class, senior year of college.
It's considered the very first independent film and had a strong influence on
David Lynch. The film looks very contemporary actually, if I didn't know it was made so long ago I could have said it was made a couple years ago with a b/w film.
It feels very much like a David Lynch film.
The ending is really F*cked up, unexpected and will haunt you.; ▶ Reply to This

That's a huge spoiler, nobody should watch that if you haven't seen it already.; ▶ Reply to This

We watched the Exorcist (my mom had banned it form the house so I had never seen it).

We also watched Sybil..which of the two completely screwed with my head! The mother was so evil I still cannot watch the movie alone!; ▶ Reply to This

Of course, The Exorcist has to be in the top five of all time.; ▶ Reply to This
