Well, I decided to start this thread and ask if any of you had seen some horrible movie that still makes you feel uncomfortable when you think it or that made you have nightmares long after it, it could've happened as a child or just some time ago, doesn't matter...

Well, my own story is that, I was about 5-6 years old, and my friends forced me to see this frankenstain cartoon... It wasn't really horrible but something about it made me horrified. Well anyway I still remember that after that movie I didn't sleep well, because at the same night I saw the movie, I am sure that I saw some man standing next to my bed(not my parents, I asked...), maybe a nightmare but I still get shivers when I think of it...

When I was five I saw the film "It."

Didn't sleep for three weeks. The next time I saw "It" was 2002. Still scared the crap outta me. Now I'm used to it.

The first time I saw "Ring" it freaked me out. I was actually backpeddaling on my sofa.

I saw Ben Hur when i was 4 or 5 and the bit on the boat where it crashed or something, and people are getting arms pulled off and mangled, freaked me out. And the leprosy bit...

Ive never really been frightened from films after that. Some films leave me with a strange numb feeling though.

interesting fact:
One of the stunt men in the final chariot race actually got killed during the film and his widow let the makers use the footage in the final product.

The only movie I can remember that disturbed me was Hellraiser or Hellraiser 2 (not sure which one I saw)

The skinless woman/man and chains pulling flesh off of someone is just... Unpleasant.

I was never scared of a film because i don't usually watch horror films. the last one was the grudge and it wasn't scary at all.

but I saw 25 minutes from the film "when justin met kelly" (the ones who won american idol) and that put a mental scar on me, brutally.

Well I haven't seen any of the Saw movies and I never intend to. Those sort of movies just aren't my thing.

I saw the first Saw movie, and it sucked. You would think they would show a lot of gore, but they didn't really. To me, it just seemed really cheesy.

Darkness Falls. That movie is a trip. Still makes me think about the witch when I go into any dark place. I was actually 18 when I saw it too...

The Faces of Death stuff was pretty sick if you weren't prepared.

Faces of Death get pretty foul, like the soldier that gets his neck brutally cut open while he is still alive. (Unknown Russian Soldier)

Well, I forgot to mention that there was this scifi movie, last horizon(or something...) It freaked me out, it was few years back...

But lately I haven't been affected by horror movies, I laughed half the time when I watched the Ring, maybe I should see the original ringu... Also whan I saw the excorsist(or how it is written) I laughed at it too, especially when the girl started to hover in the air and stuff... funny movies...

John Carpenter's In The Mouth of Madness left me with nightmares for at least a month..

The Child's Play Trilogy haunted me throughout most of my childhood.


Of course, now I'm a huge fan of horror.. :)

When I first saw Child's Play when I was like 5. I had nightmares of Chucky chasing me with a knife for weeks after I saw that movie.

The first zombie movie that I ever saw really scared me and got me into zombie movies was Return of the Living Dead. The part in the basement with the skeleton zombie. I think it was the way he looked and walked that really horrified me. I don't know what my parents were thinking when they let me watch it them when I was that young.

Original Night of the Creeps. The one with the leeches that enter through holes in your bodies and turns you into zombies.

Final Destination 2. Probably the only movie more recently that really had my heart racing throughout the whole movie. I didn't even want to drive home that night. I let my girlfriend drive me home that night.

Event Horizon?

Sam Neill and Laurence Fishburne? The only good film Paul W.S. Anderson has ever done. I loved that film. Quite creepy when I saw it in 1999 (when I was 14).

I always ask myself if it was Doctor Phil who did the voice of mister Mackey from South Park, "drugs are bad, m'kaaaaaaaaay"
