Not a particularly scary bunch for me, but the Fly builds some good tension.

Agreed.....with the exception of Child's Play. Wasn't one of my favorites.

When I was a kid nothing scared me more then Chucky but now I have to admit, its more silly then scary. Still one of my favorites though.

2's all around

Sculpt 07-25-2013 08:04 PM

Never seen Chucky. Never would have guessed it would have such a following, nor that it would have been any good. Have to check it out sometime I'm in the mood.

Fright Night - 1

All 3 80's cult hits score pretty poorly in the scares department, and are duly added to the opening post.

"The Scene" in When a Stranger Calls is very well done. Even though I knew about it, I still thought it was scary. But the rest of the movie is a wash out. Too bad the producer didn't make more of it.

The official trailer for Alice, Sweet Alice is really funny (I think) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5QEAH35vM4 . Interesting, on RT, critics liked it 80%, but the general public (6,994 votes) didn't (57%).

Kandarian Demon 07-26-2013 02:02 PM

Haven't watched any of them :o I missed the last set, but would have given "The Fly" 5... the thought of falling apart like that absolutely terrifies me.

Me too, I missed the last vote but would have voted Seth - Jeff Goldblum did an Oscar worthy performance.

You should check out the opening scene of When a Stranger Calls. It's worth it. I see the full movie is free on youtube, at the moment. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8Vxl6iAMZs
