Merged: The Movies Thread

To this day I will not watch the Exorcist. Period. I don't care if it is on Regular Tv or not. I will NOT watch that joint. I simply can't, that is the only horror movie that really scares me. The Ring was creepy as hell because for about a good 2 weeks everytime I walked past a TV I got these chills down my spine because i was afraid the little girl was going to come out of the screen. I was F'n DONE after that !

The Exorcist and The Shining are the top scariest movies for me.

I was at the place where they filmed the stair scene about a month ago. It's still creepy.

Here in Frederick, all the Blockbusters were owned by the same person...who decided to shut them down. The one closest to me was one of the top ones in the state. Missed out on their inventory liquidation...

They just closed the Blockbusters in Dupont Circle.

I saw today that you'll be able to stream NetFlix from your PlayStation 3 very soon. I think it's a $9 monthly subscription.

There aren't too many scary movies that get me. The only one I can think of that haven't been named was The Grudge (2004 Remake), but then I watched the extras and saw how they made the effects (Little to no CGI if I remember).

The Strangers was a helluva scary movie.

The Fourth Sense and Paranormal Activity look like they'll be pretty scary too.

On an unrelated note, anyone see Couples Retreat yet? Gonna try to check it out sometime this week.

I wouldn't waste your time, I've got a buddy who saw it and said it was perhaps the worst movie he's ever seen. The reviews are pretty bad too.

Really? That's too bad. The cast looks great and the previews looked funny too. Oh well. Maybe I'll pick something else to go see.

BTW folks, the original Halloween is on AMC at 10pm tonight. You know, if this game gets out of hand and we change the channel.

If you want to see Vince in a funny movie wait for 4 Xmas to come out on DVD, great movie!
