Luckily I watched it when I wasn't too small. I get how scary it can be for a child. My cousin watched it when he was very small (he's older than me) and said that he had terrible nightmares because of it, for about 2 weeks. Its name was translated to Turkish as: "Şeytanın Ölüsü"; which means "The Dead Body of Satan". Haha, probably a mistake. Apparently the translator confused devil with evil. But in the end, this makes the name even scarier!

Evil Dead II is more fun I think. Some obvious comedic elements are seen here and there, but it is still a horror movie.

And the third: Army of Darkness is pure fun. One of my go-to examples of horror comedy. Sam Raimi is a genius! Even in the 2000s, he could come up with a masterpiece named Drag Me to Hell!

^ But you're some years older than me!!! Sometimes even a year makes a big difference, like in the size of your penis. LOL

Oh and, I wouldn't directly oppose that. Perhaps I was taken advantage of as a kid. Pinch


Nah nah, don't try to get away with it.

There's good kid movies and bad ones, (well, to put it your way, at least I never liked it).

Watched it in the cinema in the early 2000s. I enjoyed it immensely, also there was utter silence in the movie theater; which seemed to reflect the shock that the watchers were experiencing. (I don't include myself, not only because I wasn't shocked, but also because I'm always silent while watching movies.)

Has anyone seen this one?




Spanish, 'Tesis' (Thesis); more of a psychological terror... saw it in the 90's. I remember having thought: ".. what a badass".


Being there, another I like from the 90's: 'The Blair Witch Project'.




I liked the then-new 'reality' approach of filming; the myth surrounding the movie, the woods, the suspense, the characters, the plot, and how something as simple as getting lost in a forest can frighten you so.


Before that, around 1990, Anjelica Huston's 'The Witches', wherein the witches made that sort of convention ceremony where they took out their human disguises and turned boys into mice, caught me badly... I was about 10. It got me scared for days even in daylight!



I'm reading here the director had to soften it after showing it to his kid!



And before that, certainly many. Honored mention:





Don't know if these are 'the most', but the ones I remember. Anyway, not a horror fan per se. In books a bit more.. Stephen King fan. A great book, and one of the best suspense/horror sequences I've read, was the ending of 'The Eyes of the Dragon'.

Kairo (2001) aka Pulse. 
Disturbing movie in places. 
Do not watch the American remake.

Yes, The Ring is probably the scariest movie I have ever watched (and I've watched many, I assure you). Few horror movies beat Samara in her scariest moments :):)

Another movie that gave me the 'Willies' as a kid (and even a little today as an adult), was Village of the Damned (1960).  Not the POS remake from the 90s.



Perfect B-movie with lots of scary moments in it :)

Jason and the Argonauts, I was about 8 years old and saw this in the theater in the early 60s.  Honest I couldn't sleep for a week.

Loved it :)

^Hmm. I really cannot watch real violence and abuse videos. I'm oversensitive about such things. I realized that my sensitivity level is very high, when I had/made my flatmate watch a terrible video of a practice in the fur industry. My friend was barely affected, whereas I had been seriously traumatized.

Fiction is fiction, but real life is always scarier. 

Elite Pain, the notorious Hungarian bdsm site. Extreme tortures of women. Often safewords aren't taken into account, women are severely beaten, electroshocked on the genitals, et al. Certainly, it's officially consensual. However, the problem is Hungary is a rather poor country. Lots of women are looking for money to feed their families, to buy a gift to their relatives, to buy themselves something like IPhone... Also, from what I have read on the Net, it kinda seems that not all of the participating women are well-informed on what exactly they will be filmed in... 

Of course, I do not mention movies like Dafu Love that nobody over here (I hope so!) including me has ever watched. But there's a bunch of troublesome yet legal movies where people are severely abused - even if by their own will.
