im exactly the same. Torture porn movies don’t interest me in the slightest. I love a good supernatural horror.
Anyone else looking forward to the new Conjuring film?? I can’t wait
Yes. I'm really looking forward it. I really enjoyed the first two and I even enjoyed The Nun which wasn't particularly well received.

The Nun wasn’t bad but not a favourite of mine. I think it could have been way better. The atmosphere was great but it lacked something for me. Had potential to be super scary but just wasn’t. I wonder if they are doing a sequel or if that was a one off

Just done a bit of Googling and there is indeed The Nun 2 coming our way. Unfortunately, like so many things, it got caught up in Covid and it's been delayed.I agree that The Nun could have been so much scarier. Very watchable though and maybe they can right a few things in number 2.

BIB .... God, I'd forgotten about that film. It's a long time since I saw it but I remember it being pretty grim. I may look to up again.


Candy Man I initially watched because a friend of mine's daughter ( aged 10 at the time) had been on a sleep over and for some reason the parents let the kids watch it! You can guess the problems that followed and my friend asked me to watch it and tell her about it because she really didn't like stuff like that. I have absolutely no idea what the parents thought they were doing.

i rewatched Jeepers Creepers the other day forgot how good it is!
 
Creep (the London Underground one) really scared me as a teenager. Used to always think of it years later when I was travelling home late and drunk!

There’s another Creep on Netflix too, not as good/scary but still a jumpy watch. More unsettling than anything

Candyman still gives me the chills after watching it his knows how many times as a teen.

When I was 9-10ish I was dead scared the Gulf war would become WW3.
That in mind we found an animation on a video at home & watched it thinking it was a fun cartoon. Was When the wind blows. Well duck me. A 10 yr old kid doesn’t need to watch a film about a nan & grandad in a nuclear Holocaust & radiation poisoning! Bleeding gums, hair falling out, end of the world....so sad & so terrifying!

I can live with blood and gore but end of world, ‘what’s really out there’ type things scare the tit out of me!

The Descent. Creepy and disturbing, you wouldn't even want to go into Cheddar Caves after watching this.

Dead Man's Shoes. More depressing than scary but the twist!

Henry Portrait of a Serial Killer. The whole documentary style of it makes it seem more real. The uncut version is downright nasty. And just when you think things might turn out ok.......

Where to start?

I saw a lot of terrible horrors as a kid, video nasties were the thing back then and a few of them scared me Evil Dead, Demons, Cataclysm, Amityville 2 etc and as I got older I really enjoyed a good horror.
There were two films, although not necessarily horror, that have stopped me from watching anything scary since. I really don't know why as others might find them laughable but since watching Stir of Echoes and Session 9 I've never been able to sit through a horror.

Some films just do that to you without any explicable reason.

I watch a lot of horror and everything from the old Hammer films through to today but I mentioned a few pages back that Sinister had a similar effect on me. I had to stop watching half way though and returned at a later date but it made me feel really uncomfortable. I've never watched the follow ups. I've never worked out why it had that effect on me. Maybe it's whatever is going on in your life at the time. I don't know.

Love Stir of Echoes. And Session 9...is that the one about that group of handymen in an old asylum? If it is that one. That was really good too. Very creepy

I watched a film called darkness falls when I was a kid and I’m still scared of the dark now. From what I remember it’s basically if you go in the dark the tooth fairy scratched your face off 😩

not a tv show, but when I was young a friend told me about the story that if you say bloody mary in the mirror 3 times at midnight when you turn around the virgin mary will scratch your face. It has given me a life long fear of looking in mirrors in the dark at any time :LOL:
