I've told this before -- I love scary movies, but only one movie has truly scared (or disturbed?) me to the core: Blue Velvet. I was away for work and watched it in the hotel room. Could not get to sleep for hours and hours afterward. A few days later I was back home and walking into Wal-Mart. As I walked in, the music system started playing Bobby Vinton's "Blue Velvet." I turned around and walked out.

I've tried to figure out why it scared me so badly. I love David Lynch's stuff. Maybe it was the being in a hotel room part. Maybe it was the fact that in real life, I was familiar with where it was filmed, so it seemed more "real." Maybe it was just crazy Dennis Hopper. But whatever it was, I still get a little creeped out when I hear "Blue Velvet."
