There's just something about feeling those shivers travel up and down your spine that really gets me hooked. So whether it's creepypasta, scary/creepy pictures, creepy music or horror movies, I gobble it all up. I think the first horror movie I ever watched was the Blair Witch Project when it came out in 1999. I was about 6 years old then and in the first grade. My thoughts then were like:
- Whaaat. This is boring. . .
- Wait, what. What are those stones? Why are they like that? Okay, you knocked them down.
- Oh Gosh. What are those noises? Oh my. . .Something's moving behind you! IT'S RIGHT THERE!
- Stop arguing already. Okay, that's good. Go back to the car. Eeps! There are those noises again!
- Not the rocks again! THE MAP'S GONE? Oh noooo!!!! HEY! Get away from those stick figures, man!!
- OH GOOOOSSSHH. It's a baby screaming! YAAAGH!!
- OH CRAP. WHAT THE HECK IS THAT GROSS STUFF? YUCK! oh crap. THEM STICK FIGURES ARE FOLLOWIN' YOUUU!
- no way. you're back where you started. Hey, Josh is gone!
- JOOOOOOSSSSSHHHHHH!!!!!!!
- Oh shoot! Again with the sticks, really?! WHARGHKDH! ARE THOSE TEETH?! AAAAAGHH!
- What are you doing? Seriously, I can't undertand a word you're saying, woman.
- Oh gosh, it's Josh! You're going to look for him?! BUT HE'S GOT NO TEETH NOW!
- OH MY GOODNESS! WHAT IS THIS HORRIBLE PLACE?!!!?!?!
- MIKE! DON'T! AAAGHRGHBFSDBFSDB!
- AAGHGGHGHGHGHGH! WHAAACKVEJHAB!
- HEATHER, NOOOOO! WAAAGHGSHRBDHSGFBSFBJ!
- wait, why is he standing there?
- OH MY GEDBJBDFKBFDKBFKDBFDB! AGHDSFRJASG!
- that was it?
So yeah. That was pretty much my reaction back then. Come to think of it, if I'd watch that movie now for the first time, I probably would have reacted the same. Haha.
Anyway, since I have watched quite a few horror movies (though I'm still trying to find time to watch some of the older ones), I've actually gotten quite good at determining who will probably die or when the killer/ghost/werewolf/vampire/zombie, etc. will appear by means of, what else, horror movie clichés!
Here's one horror movie cliché that I actually both love and hate. Haha. One thing's for sure, though, it'll never get old!
You know what's sort of sad? I've actually watched all the movies included in that video. Haha.
boo,
LOL, same reactions when watching Blair Witch Project.. Then and now too. :')) Oh gosh, I'm scared at how much I haven't changed. XD
ReplyDeleteYou know what's sadder?? ;o; I haven't seen a lot of those movies where the clips come from.. or I can't remember where I saw them.. ''OTL
Oh well, I do love the mirror scare.. Oldest trick in teh book and it still gets me creeped out when I'm brushing my teeth late at night. XD
haha. I never really got the Blair Witch Project. xD
ReplyDeleteThat's okay, you can watch them all over the summer. haha.
Haha. I know! Or when I'm taking a shower. I do everything to try and keep the shampoo out of my eyes so I don't have to close them. haha.
this was funny! i have not seen Blair Witch Project, i want to now.
ReplyDeleteHaha. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteYou should watch it. but it's one of those movies wherein you're left guessing as to what really happened to the characters. It also doesn't really rely on visual effects (there's hardly any) and it was shot mockumentary style, you know, blurry and shaky and all that. haha.
Plus, it got a lot of attention back then because it was promoted as a true story. (it's not, though. haha)
