Totally. :bleh: :bleh: :bleh: I'm trying to shake the image from my head by looking at cute things. :shamefulcry:

I'm terribe when it comes to horrorifc things, especially horror films. I mean, I'm not scared while I watch them, but there's always that ONE IMAGE that sticks the mind. That one image will haunt me for a good month afterwards. I hate it. I gave up watching horror flicks years ago.

LOL. how did you go with I am Legend then? Thos things were pretty horrible :)

I don't like horror flicks either, but it's not because I'm scared, more like they're just boring... I mean who wants to have their senses shocked for two hours?

Isn't that what they do to prisoners in China? :beaten:

But I Am Legend wasn't really a Horror flick. There wasn't a single scary image in the either film.

Hmmmm... it's like... okay, the Ring. The Ring wasn't scary at all and I sat through it just fine. However, the very image of the girl just standing in the hallway dripping nasty from her hair and all, that image stuck in my head. So although I wasn't scared, whenever I was in the dark my imagination through that image of the girl at me. So then I'm haunted for like a month by that one image. Make sense?

My sentiments exactly. :bleh:

watching The Game Plan last night. So hilarious! Can't believe The Rock can act in a funny role like that :rofl: :rofl:

Am I the only female here who likes horror movies? Well, more of the psychological types. Still, I do enjoy a scare. Just ignore the fact that I usually hide my face during the scary parts. :beaten:

No, is it any good? And is it easy to find a download? :mrgreen:

Uh, it might be, but since it's out on DVD in the states, it's pirating...which is only okay if you have a pirate hat :beaten:. It's pretty good...the end is almost like a snuff film though...it's directed by the same guy that did Ju-on.

Like zombie movies at all? :beaten:

Damn, that sucks. And I don't think I'd want to rent it because I tend to not watch things as soon as I get it. And it's almost like a snuff film? I'm not sure if I'd want to watch something like that. Still, if it is good. I'll think about it. (Do you have that DVD and are you able to copy it? :beaten: )

...Zombie movies. Last one I saw was 30 Days of Night only because some guy dragged me to it. It was ok, but not my cup of tea. I honestly haven't watched many zombie movies, or any American/English movies, for that matter, in a while. :sweat:

I just need to get DVD copying software :sweat:. I'll try and see if there's someplace to download it from. It's not a really graphic movie or anything, even in the "snuff" part. It's just that part of the movie shows murders from the murderer's point of view because it's filming it with a super-8.

I think 30 Days of Night was a vampire movie :beaten:. The remake of Dawn of the Dead is probably a good one...it's not as hardcore as most zombie movies. Although I think I can tell you're not a big gore fan :sweat:. That's okay though, it's not for everybody.

If you could do that, I'd really appreciate it. :) If there's a download, that would be fine too. :)

Oh. :doh: I feel like an idiot right now (though it wasn't the first time today). :hehe: Ok, ZOMBIE movie... I think I saw only old school ones. Haven't seen newer ones, but it's mostly because I rarely go to the movies and don't rent DVDs either. It's only when I go on a date or have a bf that I really do the movie thing. Other than that, I concentrate mostly on J/K dramas. Oh and yeah, not a gore fan, which is why I do the face hiding during those type of scenes. :sweat:

Nah, you're not an idiot. ;) Vampires and zombies are both undead, so they're kind of related :mrgreen: . I can understand...I wanted to see Cloverfield, but when I think of all those punks with their cellphones in the theater, I think I'll wait for DVD :).

That's so true. Ever since the 80's, horror movies have been nothing more than shock movies, using every cliched technique to startle the viewer. When was the last movie that actually terrified the audience, leaving them spooked days after the viewing?

I just saw Warlords last weekend... without subtitles :beaten: . I barely even know Chinese. At least i got a new verb :hehe: .

But it was quite enjoyable even without the subtitles actually. Hhmm... I'd say it's contra 300.

Didn't like how Takeshi Kaneshiro looked though. I mean, waht kind of bandit wears foundation, eyeliner, and does his eyebrows??

I prefer psychological horror movies like The Ring, Carrie, Psycho (yes, this movie freaked me out), and things like that to shock horror stuff (yeah, some may not fit that category to some people, but those movies made an impression on me). I don't mind the shock stuff, but I do prefer movies that screw with my mind more than the gory stuff.

Speaking of psychological horror movies, I heard about this Spanish film called The Orphanage, which is supposed to be good. Has anyone heard of it?

This should be good. :woot:
