Hit Me with your Horror
Originally shared by Andrew “Incomitatum” Chason Hit Me with your Horror I am looking for some horror flicks. The newer the better. Good is good too. I liked House of 1000 Corpses and Devil's Rejects . I liked both the new Texas Chainsaw movies. Hills Have Eyes 1 was good (never saw the second . Jeepers Creepers 1 & 2 come to mind as well. A little camp, and/or "back woods" can't hurt. Any of you have any recommendations? Lets try and not go too far back than mid 90's. Aside: How was the new "Freddy" movie? Suggested So Far • Bones (2001) • Drag Me to Hell (2009) • The Grudge (2004) • Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (2010) • Dog Soldiers (2002) • The Decent (2005) • Creature (2011) • The Last Winter (2006)
My kids were fine until the Iron Giant went berzerk at the end.
ReplyDeletei can nearly bring my children to tears just by saying "superman" in an iron giant-like voice. my oldest is 17.
ReplyDeleteHit them with Animal Farm and Watership Down, and send a therapist's kid to college... Throw in Wizards early enough, and pick up a psychiatrist's kid, too!
ReplyDeleteSee, if you had Ol' Yeller-ed them early enough, they would be immune to everything else.
ReplyDeleteKenneth Cummins no Plague Dogs? what is this, amateur hour?
ReplyDeleteHe recovered after the deer, but the picosecond the giant’s eyes turned red, he said, “What does it mean when his eyes turn red?” Then there was much wailing and I had to ask if he wanted me to stop the movie or if he could promise to keep it together. He absolutely did not want to shut it off and we negotiated a two-minute break to collect ourselves before starting again.
ReplyDelete“I never want to see a movie with a dead deer again!” So Bambi is out forever.
This is the kid who totally blindsided me by saying he never wanted to watch Guardians of the Galaxy again because of the mom dying at the beginning. He was obsessed with talking about cancer for a week.
Luke is traumatized by the destruction of Cloud KooKoo land in the Lego movie. He made me promise that they went back and rebuilt Uni-Kittie's home after the movie was over. I swear he cried for 2 days.
