I’m scared just reading the list.
I’m glad October is over.

ahhh, good tips Amy and Andrew. Have you seen The Strangers?! Ok, I’m not even going to lie, it scared me. I was freightened. I’m sure if I watched it again I wouldn’t be scared, but you should see it… Plus I think seeing it at the Drive-in added to the suspense.

One thing you forgot to mention on your list was creepy children, get rid of them fast. If they tell you they see dead people kick that kid out of your car. If they tell you “They’re back”, Take that kid to a church, and if by any chance that kid happens to be the anti-christ, you may want to hire someone to get rid of that kid… The Godfather meets The omen. Now that would be a good movie.

A few years ago I rented “The Birds” and watched it with my whole family. We were totally into it and then when everyone is in the house at the end the DVD started skipping and wouldn’t work anymore. It was so frustrating I’ve never seen the end of that movie. Probably my most frustrating Digital Video Digital experience of all time.

I know! “The Birds” is still SOOO scary… after all these years. I thought I’d see it again and laugh at what scared me years ago. But I was still scared!

I would be having nightmares all the time if I watched all those movies. I used to watch them when I was a young teenager, but now I just don't want to be reminded about what evil might be out there. It makes me too afraid when I'm alone.

I would say none of those are good for kids. They have a hard time distinguishing fantasy from reality so they could be REALLY traumatic for some kids.

I was so mad when I found out that babysitter let you guys watch scary and R rated movies. What was she thinking?

I definitely want to make this an annual thing. In fact, even though today is halloween, I still have 4 scary movies to watch. But for the most part I’ll wait until next year.
Also, I’d have to agree with Jenae about Sleepy Hollow, it’s awesome!

awesome, ok, you know how we talked about how children never die in scary movies?
I was watching Sleepy Hollow, and an unborn child gets its head chopped off....and taken, I think 2 children die in that movie. I was pretty shocked. But excited to see someone pushing the horror movie buttons. loved the list by the way.
