Ya it's stupid. I don't find it terrifying but it's lame, I would assume afgter all the great art and psychdelics people claim to enjoy here, over the years most would drift farther and farther away from what I would IMHO believe to be garbage entertainment.

And isn't entertainment supposed to be entertaining.

Personally I would assume when it comes to movies most of us are into drama, comedy(which in "real life" is often the same thing seriously )
maybe some independent films and foreign stuff.

I mean, everyone think of their favourite movie of all time..hmm
Was it a horror movie?

It's about taste and some people don't share the same taste with others amazingly enough.

To address the topic: I haven't been scared by a movie in a long time, but the Candyman used to terrify me as a child.

BTW, Keep in mind I didn't list mystery suspense action etc..I should have, that was foolish.

90% of all horror movies suck IMO.
Maybe I'm "wrong" and I will find some great ones.

I understand taste Redstorm. And that it's individual.

So tell me, what's a really enriching cerebral horror movie.

I'll watch it with an open mind if you name one.

Requiem for a Dream always manages to scare me into staying away from drug addiction. 

Apart from that, I haven't found myself truly scared by a movie in years.  Back in the day, I recall spending a terrified night awake in bed after watching Ernest Scared Stupid, though.

I admit that movie scared me when I was a kid.  Only movie to ever give me nightmares (that I'm aware of)... I can't remember how old I was when I saw it though

I like 28 days and weeks later but I wouldn't say they were particularly scary, I just really like the way they're done. (particularly 28 days later)

...and does it still scare you now?

For me, it is probably The Ring. I saw that when I was 13 and it terrified me. I couldn't even watch the commercials after seeing it - always had to change the channel. It was just so relentless...I literally felt a sense of relief when the mom found the girl's body because I thought there would be a happy ending - but nope, it did a complete 180.

I saw it again the other day and it was still kinda creepy, but I can't see how it scared me so much. Ignorance is bliss I guess, eh?

JAWS.

Because it is REAL and a situation an average person could find themselves in. The terror of not knowing what is underneath you and the way Spielberg shot that movie.

---

The fear is real. The situation is not. Peter Benchley once said that if he had known anything about sharks at the time, he never would've written the book Jaws.
