Do movies still scare you?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 99/100. reinydawn (4411) 2 years ago

I like "scary" movies and they don't usually bother me too much. Some times they do though...

Last night I was watching "Mirrors" and it was kinda scary. But when I went to go to sleep, as soon as I turned off the lights I didn't want to look into any reflective surfaces. When I got to the bedroom I got a few seconds of scared stiff when I realized that there are 2 huge mirrors in my bedroom. Fortunately it only lasted a few seconds.

Do movies still make you scared??

I don't like watching scary movies at all, even with the company of family or friends because my imagination can go overboard and it scares the hell out of me. My friends would laugh at me everytime we watch a movie and there are trailers of scary movies because I really cover my ears and eyes so that I can't see and listen to any of it. :)

I'm right there with ya, manubla!


myLot reputation of 99/100. reinydawn (4411)  2 years ago

Sometimes I think I should be more like that, but I just LOVE the thrill you get from a good scary movie! Except those times where it really scares me like it did the other night...

I love a scary movie but they are so rare, aren't they? Back in the sixties and seventies we had the Hammer horror pics that were so bad, we laughed at them. Growing up in that environment has left a permanent connection between horror and comedy movies.
Today's gore flicks such as the saw series are just sick. Everything else is a "funny". I haven't had a good fright for years. I hope the new Hammer films will be much better in the future.

You are so right that a good scary movie is hard to find. I do keep looking though, and sometimes I find something good. Most movies now are just blood and gore, not really fright.

My best friend in high school and college LOVED scary movies! I watched them all with her, and even if they weren't really my thing, I wasn't really scared. Now that I'm old, I can't handle it. I can't even watch the ones I saw (over and over again) with my BFF thirty years ago! I can't even watch the commercials! If DH is gone for the evening, I get really timid channel surfing. Geez, I'm a wimp!


myLot reputation of 99/100. reinydawn (4411)  2 years ago

I know what ya mean, but I still watch them. It's like now that I'm older I think it's all going to really happen. I woulda thought that it would be that way when I was younger - but I guess when you're younger you think you're invincible....

Scary movies do still scare me, and that is why I do not watch them. Ev en when they do not consciously scare me, I can just about guarantee that I will be in the movie when I dream. I make up enough weird dreams as it is without that kind of suggestion.


myLot reputation of 99/100. reinydawn (4411)  2 years ago

I'm glad I don't have scary dreams from the movies, I just get the heebie-jeebies for a while... I do want to watch "Mirror" again though - it was pretty decent... I probably wont have the same reaction afterwords though...

Absolutely, they scare me. shockedThat's why I won't go see any horror movie. I can't even watch "Ghost Whisperer" on TV and I like that program. If I do watch it I have my pillow nearby and afterward I have to watch something on the Disney Channel to make me feel safe and cozy again. whistle


myLot reputation of 99/100. reinydawn (4411)  2 years ago

Now, that's a good idea! I should have stayed up a bit longer and watched a "chick flick" to calm myself down a bit! Great suggestion!!!!

Hi, reinydwan. Yes, they still make me scared. I can't look at a movie that is very creepy. If I am alone at home, this movie will come back to haunt me. And, I will freak out thinking that the evilness of this movie will come back to get me. I really don't like looking at a movie that makes me very scared.cry


myLot reputation of 99/100. reinydawn (4411)  2 years ago

When I was younger they never scared me, but sometimes now they just get to me. But I guess I'm a glutton for punishment and I'll keep watching them...

movies don't scare me anymore nowadays. i watch them and then carry on doing everything like nothing happened. like every other movie. you watch it and then it does not affect you at all. be well and keep lotting.


myLot reputation of 99/100. reinydawn (4411)  2 years ago

I have found that I'm much more emotional during movies now - all kinds. I tend to cry more often during a sad movie, laugh harder at a funny movie. I guess that's just a part of getting old...

Hi,
Actually,i prefer light movies i.e. movies with light comedies.But some time i am being forced to watch scary movies by the family members.I watch them but don't take by heart and hence i don't have any fear of the scary movies.


myLot reputation of 99/100. reinydawn (4411)  2 years ago

I don't tend to watch many scary movies either, but sometimes they look interesting. Usually they're quite disappointing, but some times they really get to me.

Mirrors is a really scary movie so it is normal for you to be scared but this was probably the last film which made me thrill.
Almost all the films nowadays have the same plots.I feel as there is nothing that may come as a surprice to me-they are predictable and this is not the element that may scarry me.


myLot reputation of 99/100. reinydawn (4411)  2 years ago

They do tend to be pretty predictable so they aren't very scary at all. I like when they're different and keep you on your toes.
