WOMP lol

LOL. Hell yeah! Just like I'm freaked by the idea of ever seeing a grizzly face-to-face. I guess a grizzly chasing a moose is just a day in the life of knight_shadow. LOL.

Not to be confused with horror movies and being frightened by movies like Paranormal Activity.

These Texas streets are rough lol

But yeah -- I haven't been scared by any of the "Top ___ Scary Movies Of All Time" so I chuckle when I hear people getting freaked out by them.

When I saw Scream in the theatre in college, it was scary. I recall how everyone was shrunken down in their seats by the end of the movie.

The Poltergeist movies still scare me a little, especially considering those were real dead bodies in the swimming pool.

When I saw Hostel for the first time, I was really, really disgusted and disturbed by the plot. Just the idea that someplace like that would exist really got to me.

In that "100 Horror Movie Spoilers in 5 Minutes" video posted above, #100, Ghoolies, also scared the crap out of my little brother when we were younger. He was afraid to use the toilet after watching that movie.

Pet Semetary by Stephen King, that movie was really scary and it still is to me today.

I'm not a horror movie fan. I like suspense movies but the blood/guts and gore every 30 seconds is just something I'm not into seeing.

Langoliers (the TV movie) freaked me out a bit. As it was a TV movie, the special effects weren't what they could be had it been a movie, so I can only imagine how a movie would have been.

Okay, I'm totally going to get laughed at for this next one, but I was 7-8 years old at the time, so please take that into account.

E.T. freaked the crap out of me at that age. . It didn't matter that E.T. was a "friendly" alien, he scared the crap out me. I remember going to bed terrified that an alien would come to earth. I went to bed with every single stuffed animal that I owned, surrounding me on my bed (because in my mind those stuffed animals were going to protect me). My parents could barely find me in the bed to give me a kiss goodnight.

I'm a huge wuss. If I am told the movie is scary I won't see it at a theater. If I do actually see it, it will be in the comfort of my home with every light on.

Wizard of Oz. I was 5 or 6 at the time, my parents let me watch it with them one Sunday night on TV. The flying monkeys had me under my chair, scared witless.

I'll pass on the scary/gory/icky stuff. Which means no to most horror/scary movies. Thank you, I'll pass. I am a Complete and Total Wuss.

Oooh, the witch's green face was scary in Oz and that's probably why I was petrified as a child of Maleficent in Sleeping Beauty. And now she's the new darling at Disney and she's featured in all these rides, parades, and pins as well as the Kingdom Keepers fiction series about Disney World. And I'm like, "WTH! She died!" because the only way my parents could get me to sleep in my own room was to keep reminding me that Prince Philip killed Maleficent.

I emailed the author of Kingdom Keepers when the last book came out and asked, "Why is she the centerpiece of your books? She's supposed to be gone!" and he emailed back, "I have this thing for Maleficent."

Maybe it's the fact I have health anxiety and the idea of a virus like that freaks the bejeesus out of me. Maybe it was the ookie eye gouging scene or the throwing up blood (and I have a Huge Fear of hearing/seeing/knowing about people throwing up. But it made me have a nightmare.

It did not help that I watched it home alone in the middle of the night.

Eye gouging? I thought that was in 28 Weeks Later?
