It Came from the Classic Horror Movie Thread

How did I miss this thread the first go around?

I love many of the movies mentioned -- The Shining, Carrie, The Exorcist. Also loved the original TV version of Salem's Lot and especially the three Omen 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.

For realz? Blue Velvet is one of David Lynches more "subdued" films.

I know. And I love his stuff.

For some reason, Blue Velvet just struck a very wierd nerve.
