Have you guys watched the horror movies in a summer camp where the counselor kills all the people? (I realize this describes half the 80s horror films) It's a series of 3. They're really super campy and fun.
OK. Has anyone seen this short film, I think it's part of a collection, where a group of friends is out on a lake and they keep getting taken away one by one...?
Taking it back to Slenderman, have you guys seen the Marble Hornets (youtube series)? That was when I first learned about Slenderman and it is kind of a psychological mind-game so it always freaked me out.
ETA: Also House on Haunted Hill freaked me out. But I love it. Old school insane asylum, ghosts, some gore.
i like where you cant see the monster, b/c my imagination is 100x worse. the original 13 ghosts was great. the remake sucked, not even mentioning princess tits and the rape.
I had such high hopes for 13 ghosts. Instead it was a lot of watching that one dude spit.
I haven't seen many horror movies, so I don't have much to offer, but I will share this one story. Years ago, one October, we were in Pittsburgh visiting friends. There was a special George Romero (Night of the Living Dead) "haunted house" going on. We thought it would be funny, so we went to check it out. Outside, there were people freaking out left and right. We were laughing, and all, "seriously, people?"
Then we went in.
JFC we were scared shitless. We took ten steps, screamed for our fucking lives, and ran back out. We had to give ourselves a pep talk to get ourselves back in, and even then, one friend refused to do anymore. The entire thing was terrifying and amazingly well executed.

what year did the blair witch project come out? 1998?
i had a panic attack after seeing that, it scared me so bad. my BFF at the time got me drunk to help and just kept screaming, "They were just sticks, sarahbeth!! JUST FUCKING STICKS!!!!"
lol
My boyfriend's older brother worked for....IDK, someone who got him an advanced copy of Blair Witch before it was in theaters. Remember when the rumor was it was real? Yeah, we watched it before that rumor was blown and it was SCARY AS FUCK! I'd also just started smoking weed, so that might have had something to do with it.

1999. I was a camp counselor in the middle of the woods and went out to see it with friends on a night off.
I may have piled up rocks on the porch of one of my friend's cabins.
ive done two haunted houses and both were terrible, horrible mistakes. the last one you had to crawl around and slide down slides. i kept screaming that it was fucking bullshit b/c i needed anger to replace my fear. then one monster touched me and i screamed and freaked out and had to be carried away while i screamed they werent allowed to touch me.
never again.
never.
I went to one with actual electrified fencing. It was a pitch black maze that shocked the fuck out of you. I haven't done a HH since.
I went to a hh s couple years ago. Someone was following me trying to freak me out. H was behind me (and behind the "scary" person) trying to stifle laughter because it clearly didn't bother me.
Also the remake of the exorcist was bad (i laughed in the theater). They tried to throw effects in to make it scarier when it's really supposed to be just psychologically scary.
OK, i also laughed at i know what you did last summer.

I have to say that hh's are ruined for me after I worked in them. I used to be a screamer, and now I'm one of the annoying people looking around at all the props.
are you going to work one again this year, pixy? do you get to pick your outfit?
No. The people we worked for closed theirs to focus on 1) their marriage, and 2) opening a costume shop. I'll be working in the costume shop, though. I go in tomorrow actually.

They kept trying to get us to buy the HH. It's a shitton of money, a large time commitment, and not a lot of $$ payoff. BUT if we would have had the down payment for it, we might have done it.
I'm looking up Haunted Houses now, and seeing if I can make a night out of it by going to one and then to a late night showing of RHPS.
That would be the BEST NIGHT EVER!
My advice would to be to go on an off day, earlier in Oct., or early in the evening. Otherwise you'll stand in line forever.
That's my one worry. A local theater shows RHPS at 10pm on Fridays and midnight on Saturdays, so I'm aiming to try and go earlier in October as opposed to later to try and miss some of the crowds.
Re Pet Sematary: I can't do the movie. Can. not. So I can't imagine the book. I saw the 2nd movie when I was little and it was the only movie to give me nightmares.
This and Cujo were ones I couldn't finish reading.
The end of cujo is ducked up. Pet Semetery too. Quit burying people there!
I'm watching Couples Therapy. The only person I know is Jenna Jameson. I recognize the Jersey Shore girl, but I don't know her name.

I'm sorry but the Googles tells me that there is a dude from Naughty by Nature on this round. That means you need to hand over your black card.
Also, who the fuck cares about Deena? If any Jersey Shore alum belongs on Couples Therapy it's Sammy and Ron. Those fucking assholes, yo. Sammy is codependent as hell and Ronnie is a classic abuser. I wonder if they're still together.

At no point in my life have I known what any of the dudes from Naughty by Nature (not cause I hate ya) look like. I had the one album but it was a bootleg so no cover.
That said, he seems like an asshole. And the woman from Bachelor who keeps bitching about the cameras? Did it not occur to you to queue up last season to see what you're getting into? Quit acting new. Her dude has an adorable accent, though. He can stay.
