what freaks you out in horror movies?.
i've grown up watching horror flicks since i can remember so i've seen alot of em but for some reason only certain things abuot the films freak me out more than the whole movie.
the giant demon ghost in the doorway and the evil clown doll in poltergeist
the tarman from return of the living dead
the upside down spiderwalk scene from the exorcist
and the freaky upside down head people in the unborn.
what freaks you out?
Re: what freaks you out in horror movies?.
A well executed threatening suspense scene can get to me a bit, sometimes. Where you know that invisible monsters are just outside your perception - maybe in vents, or parallel rooms and hallways, and you don't know which sudden gap will clear the barrier between you. Those work better in games, though, where you actually have to react to them and still make sound decisions.
Visible monstrosities don't really work on me like that. The more grotesque and dangerous looking they get, the more I'm likely to like them.
What is this tarman you're talking about? Do you mean the original zombie from the vat?
Re: what freaks you out in horror movies?.
Most horror movies are pretty predictable so if something slightly unexpected happens I'll probably jump a little.
Movies don't scare me into having nightmares either. In fact the only thing I can remember getting nightmares from was The Incredible Hulk (the t.v. show. But I was around 5 or 6 years old).

tarman.................."more...brains", yeah I liked that one
what freaks me out is when people get cut in horrible places like the tendon that runs down to your heel(pet cemetery)

Stuff like that just makes me cringe. Imagine how much that would hurt!

Hiya! :the_finge
Just happen to have something relevant to post so here it be :thumb:
L.A. Zombie movie banned
The director of gay zombie porn film LA Zombie says he is delighted his movie was banned.
‘‘My first thought was ‘Eureka!’’’ director Bruce LaBruce said, speaking from his home in Toronto.
‘‘I’ll never understand how censors don’t see that the more they try to suppress a film, the more people will want to see it. It gives me a profile I didn’t have yesterday.’’
heh ... while I am all for this sort of film the content probably does freak me out... but I thought that was why we watched this sort of thing in the first place! then again I may not be rushing out to watch as I am most likely too squeamish. Then again i found Necromaniacs most acceptable...
Re: what freaks you out in horror movies?.
zombie penis? id sort of imagine that as one of the first organs to deteriorate to unusability.

Zombie porn, sweet. It's a common enough theme in guro, but live action is pushing it just a bit further.

'Necromaniacs'?
My interest is piqued, but IMDB doesn't seem to know this.

Ah sorry I was just going from memory - I see that actually it's Necromaniac: Schizophreniac 2 and the link on IMDb is http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0437353/
Directed by Ron Atkins with the main character the hilarious "Harry Russo" - I do recommend this classic - quite a few "laugh out loud in shock" moments for me anyway

Re: what freaks you out in horror movies?.
Movies pretty much don't freak me out anymore. The ole' "Been there, seen that" kinda thing. Although, any shows or clips that can show filmed footage of apparent real ghosts does creep me out pretty good. When I'm searching through "Youtube" and when I find a some clip where it really does look like an apparition moving around, it immediately gives me a case of the heebie-jeebies.
