I was rather young when the exorcist came out. To top it off, and at the same time it came out, I put a BIG hole in the ceiling while up in the attic being mischievous as a kid with another youngin. Needless to say, when my leg fell through the ceiling I thought something scary had a hold of my leg until I looked through and saw the plaster on the stereo equipment in the living room. This was too funny! I thought that I was going to get the beating of a lifetime, but luckily I did not. She was so busy trying to keep from laughin after seeing my face. Every morning while getting ready for school, I had to pass by this hole which terrified me to know end. Before it was fixed my aunt taped a newspaper on it! (WHEW****pt hearing what sounded like chains being dragged on the floor. I just knew the devil was comin to get me! Three of my cousins from Texas came to visit, and one of them was sitting on the couch just below the hole. I noticed it moving and decided to pull up a chair and started poking at the newspaper. Low and behold if it didn't come loose and a mouse with all fours spread far and wide is darting for my face! I ran so fast to my room, that I bout killed myself in the process. I finally came out to see yarn where my cousin was sitting knitting leading outside. We fell out on the ground It still cracks me up today!

Love the REMAKE of this .. however I didnt like the older one.. Maybe u could watch the comedy version called Shawn of the Dead..

Terrie, your list is good... When I saw the Exorcist, I wanted a priest to come bless my house!! I could hear noises coming from the attic for months after... And I saw Village of the Damned when I was younger, and those kids scared the pants off me. But EVIL DEAD had to be the worst, the heads spining around, vomit everywhere, it was my all time worst... I also will no****ch Evil Dead alone, its scary even in the daylight!!

Well send me on an email and maybe we can compare stories sometime. It'd be a lot of fun. And lemmie tell ya, I could use a bit more fun lately.

Elizabeth, Some really really good ones on your list! I am a lot older so my classics were mostly black and white. I was a major Dracula junkie as a child! heehee. The Hammer Horror Flicks ruled in my day!!! One of my alltime favorites was "The Creature from the Black Lagoon." Age does change your preception though. I saw it playing on TCM the other month and got my daughters to watch it with me. It was funny to watch this time, and couldn't find a scary part in it. Another one that scared me as a kid was the original film "The Cat People". The redid it a couple of years back, just wasn't the same!! One other thing I REALLY like are the ?HORROR? movies that are so outrageous, you just can't do anything but laugh. My favorite two are: The Night of the Leapus(black and white film about attacking GIANT rabbits I swear there really is such a movie!! The other was something like Attack of the Killer Clowns from Outer SPace. Another classic!! Last thought then I gotta go, is my favorite Dracula movie of all time is: "Dracula" with Frank Langella (made late 70's early 80's) Langella played the role so sexually instead of monsterly, that it almost seemed to be a love story. I must admit that I cried when they killed him in the end!! That is the movie that made ME fall in love with Drac. It wasn't Frank, cause I haven't really cared for him since. What strange creatures we are, we that are comfortable with the creatures of the night!!! Wahaahhhh! Cathy
