I love how Burger pauses to casually like his lips in between screams.

Welcome to the forum and good points, though Godzilla and other huge monsters would be scary to me.  You cannot get out of their way, because they are on the same scale as a tornado or other natural disaster.

That's another reason they don't scare me, you can't do anything about or to them so why worry, having said that I also want to say that giant monster movies from Japan are a hoot to watch. I  always wondered where the Japan Self Defense Force got all the flying tanks, death rays, super missiles etc. any way I have always enjoyed a Godzilla type movie, they are always fun.

The giant monster movies work best (for me) with a good dose of advanced weapons and craft.  I love seeing phaser cannons and laser weapons, plus lots of futuristic aircraft or even spaceships.  "Godzilla vs. Mothra" (1992) had some of this.  The one scene with Godzilla wading through a torrent of fire was great.

When I was very little I use to have dreams Godzilla was coming down my street and I was trying to hide in my bedroom knowing it wasn't going to help as the earth shook.

The fun for me in these movies is that while the Japanese military could apparently conquer the world their new weapons don't work on a big lizard or bug, or what ever but it is great to see them in action. Actually I think Godzilla type movies (Rodan, Gamera etc.) are in a class all by themselves. I watched Godzilla, the original American release with Raymond Burr six nights in a row on the Million Dollar Movie and woke up at every noise, wanted to run outside and see the big guy

You really want scary?
Check out this video on Youtube of this cat named Burger.
I've seen a few p**sed off cats in my time but nothing like this.
That's one mean p***y!

WATCH THE VIDEO

I wonder what it was thinking?


In addition to two dogs we have four cats, so I think what Burger was saying was "FEED ME AND I'LL LET YOU KEEP YOU FACE"

I think Burger was thinking, "Get that f*ckin' camera out of my face!!!"
I'll bet anything that the camera scared the hell out of it.
I've have never in my life seen a cat that angry!   Buggedout

I have, at the vet's office, the cat (not a very big cat) was saying "Don't think you can give me a vacination dummy", took three people to give the little cat a shot and there was blood shed by two of us holding the cat. I should say that the cat belongs to us, her name is Doodle.

I went shopping today with my wife, while driving we came to a signal where we needed to turn right, the car in front of us did too but moved out very slowly when the light changed, like they were lost or something, the car ended up in the right hand lane and I changed to the left lane, having to turn left in a block or so. We're driving along side by side and my wife points out to me that the other driver is not only talking on cell phone she is also reading a store sale paper that's spread out on the steering wheel, sort of like one half of a collision looking for the other half. She was still doing this as we turned, hope she didn't find the other half

Okay, from all the way back in 2006, things from TV and movies we personally found scary. Good topic to zombiefy.

I always thought The Wizard of Oz was a horror movie falsely marketed as a musical. It disturbed me end to end, from the witch saying Dorothy would die when the hourglass went out, to those #$%* munchkins, who looked like they crawled out of the sewers of Hell.

Also Tigger was intimidating to me, always bouncing, relentlessly getting up in everybody's faces. (I did admire his egoism, though.)

The weird-eyed cloney, robotey chick at the very end of The Stepford Wives (I think she went on to be the mom on Family Ties too) was frightening, the way she emerged and walked forward, dead-eyed like that. That was bad. I've had dreams about her.

But the thing that put the cherry on the fear sundae when I was really small was when there was this show on TV called Tales of the Gold Monkey, and there was an episode where assassin dressed as Anubis came to murder an Egyptologist, and boy oh boy, did seeing someone walking around expressionless in an Anubis mask terrify me. For weeks all my dad had to do was creep up on me and say "Anubis" and I was done-in.

Oh, yeah, depictions of Mother Theresa scare me too because she looks like some sort of possessed Appalachian apple doll come to life.

I love Tales of the Golden Monkey had have every episode on DVD (although that wasn't hard to get since they only did one season).

Aw cool, you know the episode I'm taking about? I only saw it once sometime in the eighties and it's probably not as terror-inducing as I remember, huh?
