Favourite Jump Moments

What are yours?

I was watching Jaws just then (I still am) and I knew the head bit was coming. But because I haven't seen it in about eight years I didn't know that it happened where it did. (corner of the screen) Made me jump a little and also made me smile with glee.

The bit where Halle Berry bends down in Gothika and the ghost is behind her. Apart from that, nothing else in the movie.

When the facehugger jumps out of the egg and attaches itself to the guy's face in Alien.  The part where Dallas is going through the ventilation system and comes across the alien is pretty good too.

You do realize that we can tell who you are, even when you use a different name, right?

[Gerry]

In ALIENS when the apparently-dead face hugger in the tank bumps up against the glass.  I saw that in the theater back in 1986 and let me tell you...people about flew out of their seats.  It was hilarious!

[Menard]

I never saw THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE 2 in the theatre, but I would have liked to have seen the reaction of the audience to the scene where Leatherface comes running out of the record vault in the radio station.

He knows who you are. That's why they call him AndyCSI    (:

I did a joke a while ago, and forgot to put the name back.

The face sucker in the original Alien was a good one.  Another was the ending in Carrie,  when Carrie's hand comes up through the grave.

Jack is his own best friend. (heh..heh..heh)


Yes, I fully expect to hear about that one. (:

Didn't scare me, but the bit in Jaws where the shark comes up behind the shark cage and rams it.

It is cheesy, but I like the end of "Prince of Darkness".  It was my first serious shock moment in (bad) film.
