    Hausu is so good

    Weirdly recommended to me as "what if there was a sailor moon episode where everybody got murdered in a haunted house "

    "and was also a 90 minute commercial for underwear"

    That's pretty much exactly what it is, to be fair

    Horror movie sponsored by MeUndies.

    The horror part is the price tag

    I'm not good with horror movies and or graphic violence.

    Although the movie that had probably the most lasting disturbing effect on me was Apocalypse Now. I can' even remember it that well but I do remember that the whole sequence at the camp where the USO helicopter went down was fucked up.

    Hey, I thought throwing shade at other subforums was against the rules.

    My first movie I have memory watching was Alien3. And I once had a first date where we watched Cannibal Holocaust. So I'm pretty primed for some grotesqueness I think.

    Though for whatever reason when I was 6 Creep Show terrified me. Despite the fact I had made it through much worse by that point.

    i have only ever seen hausu in the middle of an all night horrorfest where every movie was a surprise and by accident on tcm when flipping through channels really late at night.

    i kinda only ever want to watch it in ways like that.

    makes it feel more special.

    Alien movies aren't so bad to watch the other hand. I think for me it's more actual people being horrible where I have to draw the line.

    I can't remember ever being scared after the fact by a movie

    I was nauseous after the fact for a while from Machine Girl, but that's a different thing

    Yo, I heard we were briefly talking about sleep paralysis in here?

    Spoilered cuz nightmare fuel:
    Let me tell you, that is the one collectible that fans of the band dredg don't want to have (their second album was heavily themed around it). Unfortunately for me, I've got it. I never knew what it was called for years until I listened to that album. The liner notes are full of people's stories about having it. I've suffered from it ever since I was a little kid, but I thought they were just "normal" dreams cranked up to eleven. Nope. I'm thankful that it's actually pretty rare for me to experience it, but I would estimate that once every two years it hits me. And I never get used to it. Even though I know exactly what's going on, I can't put down the sheer terror of it. I've heard some people hear noises (that hasn't happened to me), but I suffer from the "body can't move, just my eyes, everything feels like lead, and I have an overwhelming sense of dread that something is right behind me, and--god fucking dammit, why can't I turn to look?! My wife is right there, why can't I make any sound to get her attention?!" variety. It lasts probably only a few minutes, but it feels like hours.

    When I was a kid, I'm preeeeeeetty sure I had some form of the "hag" aspect. My bedroom door used to be open and face a short hallway (maybe 8 feet?) that led to my parents' door. There were quite a few times where I "woke up," frozen in bed, but able to see through the door into the darkness, and I swore I saw a woman standing there, just kind of floating/standing, and I knew she had bad plans for me. I would want to scream for my mom, but nothing came out. I wouldn't be able to move, just lay there seeing this thing and not knowing what was going to happen next. Typically once I was able to finally move I would immediately turn the lights on, turn my TV on and just sit there not wanting to fall back asleep again.

    It is quite possibly the worst thing I have ever experienced. I'm struggling to think of anything that tops it and I can't.

    But hey, it made for a great song from one of my favorite albums!

    Yeah, fortunately I don't get any of the hallucinations, just the wholly natural assumption that I'm trapped in my own body forever

    A horror movie that really affected me to my core was Funny Games, which I know has come up in these threads before.

    Just an extraordinarily unpleasant viewing experience. That's not because of any flaws in the film, though; I think that was kind of the entire point. But yeah, it made me feel icky. I was also having some weird misgivings about my current relationship at the time so watching it with the girl I was in said relationship with was fucking weird. Just a big ol' pit in the bottom of my stomach for the entire film.

  • jgeisjgeis Registered User regular
    The last horror movie I watched was The Witch and I loved that movie a whole lot. I'm trying to remember if there are any jump scares and I think there's only one thing that kind of counts:
    When Black Philip gores William near the end of the movie. It isn't quite presented in the same way as most jump scares but I think it still counts.

    It definitely comes as a shock. I think I jumped both times I've seen it.

    I think it was a little less jumpy for me because it comes in a scene already high in tension and mayhem (the barn being destroyed, the kids missing, the other goats dead), plus Black Philip is not seen in any of the preceding shots which kind of set it up.

  • GustavGustav Friend of Goats Somewhere in the OzarksRegistered User regular
    When I saw the Witch I was very certain that it was only gunna be me loving that film. I'm very glad to be wrong.

    I wish I could remember what my first horror movie was. I'm gonna guess something from the Universal Monster days, given that I spent a lot of my childhood with my grandmother.

    Mine was Anaconda which, as I've said, has fostered a life long fear of snakes and also Jon Voight

  • HobnailHobnail Registered User regular
    Anaconda wasn't my first horror movie but it definitely gave me memories of Owen Wilson getting his bones and organs pulverised by a huge snake that I can always return to in my mind during trying moments

    I had a VHS tape of horror movie trailers from the original King Kong all the way to the 70s Kong I think. It was called Monster Mania. And I wore that tape the fuck out as a youngin'

    holy cow that sounds like it could be really good

    I have a real issue with being unable to control my body like that. Just thinking about sleep conscienceness gets my brain a flutter

    it's really only happened to me twice that I can remember. once was just hey I can't move oh now I can and another was waking up from a drowning dream and trying to yell that I needed help but I couldn't so I just ended up mooing loudly.

    I routinely get sleep paralysis. Wake up just enough to be aware of my surroundings, but still deep enough in REM cycle to be unable to move. It's a panicky feeling but I've been through it enough to reason my way out of it.

    This happens to me, too, except I have an excitable imagination so I'll start to hallucinate!

    This morning, the closet doors opened and then peeled the entire wall away revealing an antechamber with a door in the left wall of the chamber slowly opening.

    That's not fun.

    One time a friend was crashing with me in my bed and she got up to use the bathroom and then she leaned down real close to my face and I realized it wasn't my friend because my friend had facial features and this thing did not, just smooth all the way down and then I realized my friend never got up to use the bathroom and I just sat there frozen quietly screaming.

    Oh dude. Sleep Paralysis is the fucking worst

    I run into it about once every three or four months. And even if logically I know what's up now, it doesn't matter.

    Poltergeist is a damn fine film. I think the re-make did an excellent job of making a believable family but the ghost stuff pretty much sucked.

  • GustavGustav Friend of Goats Somewhere in the OzarksRegistered User regular
    You know. Thinking early movies...I kinda think I might have first learned about Christianity from the Exorcist? I think?

    My parents did an absolutely terrible (amazing) job about what movies young Gus saw.

    the first horror movie i saw is tough to remember, to be honest

    i was probably 6 or 7 when i did, since that'd be around the time i discovered troma and fell in love with death wish 2.

    i think it was maybe dracula
