The Ring was a great horror movie that got under your fingernails; absolutely oozed foreboding.  Every time I finish watching it, though, I have to leave the room with the TV with all the lights on.  It wasn't the sudden JUMP frights that got me, but how everything slowly fell together, painting this image of a girl that's really disturbing.

Also, Kill Bill is an absolutely BEAUTIFULLY shot movie, and is stunning visually.  But that's stunning in a good and graphic way; the casual disregard for gore was unsettling, but got better with repeat viewings ( ).  It's also the main reason some of my friends despised it.

For me, it's the Event Horizon.  For some reason every time I see the kid walk into the airlock and decompress without an spacesuit, it gets to me every time... I don't know why either...

I'm not squeamish at all when it comes to movies because I know they are fake, but still this one gets to me at that point in time...

Great movie, but gah...that scene sends shivers up my spine for some unknown reason.

I was so excited to finally get to watch that flick on DVD so that I could go frame by frame on all the wacked out flashes. There's really some smurfed up smurf in that movie.

Didn't get to me, I was actually kind of fascinated with it...


But if there's a movie that always gets me, it'd have to be Arachnophobia. Probably because I'm a little girl when it comes to spiders...

Do you mean ones that give you the willies?

Yup.

Ok, Faces Of Death and He Knows You're Alone

I can't watch Se7en again even though I liked it when I saw it.

I like Freddy Got Fingered. I am only mentioning it because I will never hesitate to mention it  because it is the best!!!!!

I can watch Top Gun over and over for the flight scenes but Tom Cruise's character is a huge smurf.

Faces Of Death

You must be joking. That smurf is so fake, it's ludicrous.

When the first Ed209 is introduced at the business meeting (I'm paraphrasing).

Boss Guy:"Okay point the Gun at Ed209""

Hapless victim points wepon at Ed209

Ed209: "Please point down the gun.  You have 20 seconds to comply"

Boss Guy "You better do what he says"

Hapless victim drops weapon

Ed209: "You have 15 seconds to comply"

Hapless Victim: "Ahhh, somebody help me"

Ed209: "You have 10 seconds to comply"

Everyone else:  "Get away from me!"

Ed209: "You have 5 seconds to comply"

Hapless victim "Ahhhhhhh"

Ed empties hundreds of rounds into hapless victim's body and powers down.

Man that was so scary the firsttime I saw it.

Artificial Intelligence

the part where David finally spends a day with his mother and at the end she dies and he watches her fall asleep.

i lost my mom at an early age and the last image i have of her was at the funeral.

I found this part of the movie really depressing. As soon as the movie finished, I had to pop in another movie just to get the feeling out of my head.

Anything with needle usage (hypodermic, not sewing).  The more realistic the more squeamish I get.  Fakey stuff (like Morpheus being injected in the first Matrix) doesn't phase me at all.  But show me someone injecting heroin and I'll almost faint!

The withdrawal scenes in Trainspotting. Oh, boy.
