Loved Midsommer, but there's a few bits that freaked me out!
veronica on Netflix is good and scary, based on a true story.

It’s hilariously funny! The car scene always has me in stitches. It was the only paranormal type horrorthat I’ve recently watched that I could think of !
The exorcist scarred me for years. I still can't hear tubular bells without getting a sweat on
Did you see it when it was first out? I imagine it would have had much more impact then, when that sort of full-on horror wasn't so widespread.
I was about 11 when I watched it. My best friends dad has acquired a pirated copy of the uncut version and warned us not to watch it. He kept it in the shed and told us a story of how it was cursed. Of course, we couldn't resist. We came running down the stairs to her Dad pissing himself and we had royally been set up to never ignore him again!
I watched 'Midsommar' last night.
I expected good things as it had good reviews but I found it bit meh. Mainly because it was a rip off of 'The Wicker Man'.

I didn't watch it as a child but watched it recently as I had heard about it on some kind of youtube commentary channel, I didn't find it scary as I knew it wasn't real but I did think how it was done it seemed very realistic, as mich because of who the presenters were as anything else, as someone else said it is the same kind of thing as the Blair Witch Project, scary if you thought it was real
I tried to watch this once a good few years back.. had to give up because I couldn't stop laughing. what on earth was going on when people were being carried out of cinemas etc at the time?
Have we had any votes for the original TV series of Salems Lot with the boy at the window? I recall that scared the crap out of everyone at my school
have to say that again I was baffled at Babadook. a grown man told me it scared him.. to me it was pretty dull.. oh a book turns up somewhere zz

Yep. Salems Lot has had a couple of shout outs. I think it helps enormously in that it has James Mason in it. Love him as an actor.
I think I may rewatch it tonight.
Films like wolf creek scare me more than films about possession because they're more realistic. Anything to do with being stalked, hunted, chased or home invasions terrify me.
I was 12 when I first saw the Exorcist. The only creepy thing about it was the music.
I actually found it quite comical - the girl turning crusty, spewing vomit, the bed shaking and her speaking in a silly voice etc. I suppose at that age I didn't have any knowledge of demonic possession or supernatural goings ons so I didn't quite get it.

Oh gosh yes Eden Lake. I was just wondering what the title of this film i saw was n it's Eden Lake . that flick is hella scary..Jesus Christ, I’ve just been reading up on this - sounds absolutely horrific!
Eden Lake and Wolf Creek were the two that really really got me.
I saw this about 100 times with the aid of video. I used to be able to recite all the dialogue..and had a massive poster on my wall when I was at Uni bought in one of those poster sales. It covered andentire wall. I wonder if I still could recite the script.. must try some day
I recommend a Scottish horror which has a similar vibe. It was on Netflix, called Calibre
whats that one with Donald Pleasance set on the Underground?
I once saw one late night in a hotel on terrestrial before sat and cable and I have never been able to track it down..It was about a woman who shut her husband in a box and then he got out and did the same to her.. or it could have been vice versa. I want to say it had Jennifer Jason Leigh in it but i'm not sure.. I know the guy in it was kinda cute
saw it in the cinema. my massive burly male flatmate kept jumping and squealing...
another vote for The Original Vanishing but I thought it was Dutch..

I felt the same in my 30s when it came on tv

In my defence, I was 11..
Death Line. I've never seen it though.
Underground films can be very creepy. If you've ever been on the underground when it's really quiet, you'll know why. It's so eerie.
If you’ve got a Reddit account there’s a thread called ‘tip of my tongue’ - post this and someone will identify it, probably within an hour!
Looking through Jennifer Jason Leigh's IMDB it's probably Buried Alive from 1990.
