Anyone seen any good movies lately?

I am going with Psycho, that Norman Bates relationship with mother was to weird, creeped me out :O

 

The Award for most creativity--"Five Million Years to Earth" (aka "Quatermass and the Pit")...Intelligent, mind-bending grasshoppers who travel in space...

 

Psycho,yes. How about the original Shining? Herrrrs JOHNNY.

 

Or Jaws, that only used music and a fin for over half the movie for a buildup.

 

i forgot about the Shining...RED RUM! RED RUM! Stanley Kubrick was a weird man...he loved a lot od white in his movies. I rather liked the aliens in "Dreamcatcher". And that scene in the crapper was wild!

 

In the "Shining" the Oscar should have gone to Shelly Duvall, who played the wife. You might say she got a little un-stable. I know what a good scary movie was..."Alien". A Classic! You can't beat 'molecular acid'---like to see that creature try to deal with the liquid metal guy in Terminator movies.

 

The Exorcist had me a little twisted when I was a kid. Today, there aren't many movies that do the job.

 

A movie that scared the hell out of me when I was young was "The Beast With Five Fingers" with Peter Lorre. I could feel that hand crawling on my bed at night. One that I thought real scary in the '50s was the original "The Thing" with James Arness as the thing. The scariest movie after I was grown had to be "The Exorcist".

Once sick scene to me even to this day was in Silence of the Lambs when that guy was eating the brains...

 

The exorcist to this day is still truly one of the scariest films. To say the original exorcist was an awesome movie for its time would be an understatement. Some of the sounds on that movie each time i watch it still stands the hair on the back of my neck straight out, great movie.

 

anyone watched ..The Eye 2...yet
looks pretty good

 

What's the Eye about...never heard of it

 

IS this it?

 

So, is it any good?

 

Has anyone seen steamboy?????? IF so is it good.

 

The "Exorcist" is a classic. The words coming out of that puke-headed girl were things only the devil might say...and you need to see the uncut version for it's creative use of naughty words. Never seen the eye movie mentioned...BUT I have seen "The Crawling Eye". The five fingered beast was a cool movie...but you can always nail it down on your desk.

 

As I sit here thinking about what made me jump while watching a horror flick, I must include John Carpenter's Halloween, 1978, the first one, with Jamie Lee Curtis. The sequels sucked. Another one is Wes Craven's Nightmare on Elm Street, about 1984. Again, the sequels were basically crap compared to the original.

 

Hey! I just figured out the most scary and frightening thing I have ever seen on TV--ANY political show! YIKES!!
