just wondering if there was ever a movie that just really creeped you out to the core

mine would probably be Stephen King's "IT"
i have to think about that movie everyday....
when i walk to work, i have to cross the street... well....there are these two HUGE gutter drain things under the sidewalk on both sides of the road where i cross it...
everyday i expect Pennywise to be there...
 waiting...

balloon in hand

"WE ALL FLOAT DOWN HERE!!!"

eeeeeeeekkkkkkkkk!!!

sometimes i even take a longer way to work just so i don't have to deal with those drains......

creepy......

(another clown related issue: the "new" Ronald McDonald FREAKS me out. He is really creepy looking, which is wierd.. i have never been freaked out by clowns in general... but Ronald and Pennywise just bother me...)

I watched "Mimic" on a local theatre to cure myselt of my cocroach-o-phobia. Bad idea. I leaved the theatre in a state of shock and I actually scanned every square inch of sidewalk on my way home. I like the movie and I have seen it again several times on TV. Much less thraumatic this way, but it still seems very scary to me, specially the first half.
Due to the horrifying nature of this film, no one will be admitted to the theatre.

I saw "Children of the Corn" when I was 8......I still have a rogh time with that one

The movies that always creep me out are the ones that feature somebody intentionally mutilating himself horribly, because of insanity or some evil influence. Event Horizon, Night Breed, Hannibal are examples. They're not particularly good or scary movies, but there's just something really unsettling about the self-mutilation scenes.

The best part about "Hannibal" is that after he gets done telling that hideous story about cutting his own face off, he says, "Well, it seemed like a good idea at the time."
hehehe

"Anybody want a peanut?"

I saw "The Car" when I was young and it really creeped me out.

For years I had trouble walking in open spaces at night, fearing I would get run over.

Hammer's "Kiss of Evil", when the pretty girl you've just seen at the party turns out to be a vampire & practically chomps off Andrew Kier's hand.  The juxtaposition of the pretty girl who you're sort of thinking about in an *attracted* fashion, suddenly becoming this hissing snake-like thing.  I've seen the movie several times over the years, and always get a tightness in my chest when I see Kier about to pull her away from where she's digging in the cemetary . . .

I must agree with It, it terrified me. I saw it when I was 8 and had my dad check the bathroom for months before I showered. Still have bad flashbacks.

Also, movies like Jaws, Lake Placid, and parts of Deep Blue Sea really freak me out. I hate that people are so helpless on the water, there is nowhere to go except in the sea, where the monster is! I also hate how you cant see into most water. Even now that I am 19, if I am the only one in the ocean, I get out and wait for other people to go in first.

Jaws.  Saw it in the theater when I was 6 or 7, and for the rest of my life, right down to this day, I cannot be in water without imagining rows of razor sharp teeth just inches from my legs.  Seriously, even in fresh-water chlorinated swimming pools the image comes into my head.  It doesn't scare me out of the water or anything and I enjoy swimming, but I cannot go into water without the thought passing through my head.

From what I've heard, lots of people who saw Jaws as kids feel this way.

I was eight years old and I refuse to get in open water, no way.  I refuse to swim in water that I cannot clearly see the bottom of.

A recent movie that creeped me out, The Ring.  This one had me looking around for days afterward.

In terms of simply freaking out, let me share an embarrassing personal issue - I'm afraid of snails.  Yeah, silly phobia to have, but the idea of something slimey and crunchy slithering on me just gives me the willies.  That said, the smothering by snails scene in Fulci's Aengima just makes warp my arms around my head and scream...then run from the room.  Hands down that is the most traumatic scene I have ever had the displeasure of being subjected to.

*****  Do NOT rent Dr. Doolittle!  It was not intended as a horror movie, but I believe you might have problems with it.

Jaws again. Immediately after seeing it (I was maybe 8) I was afraid to use the toilet.

Also, I've said this before but I'm being totally serious, Patch Adams. It's the most sadistic and downright creepy movie ever.

Last year I was in a class where we had to study a controversial piece of art and give a presentation on it (I picked Tod Browning's Freaks). One kid showed clips from Titticut Follies, a grainy, uncut documentary on the inner workings of a mental hospital. I consider myself pretty strong-stomached, but some of the images (particularly a patient being force-fed through the nose, juxtaposed with that same patient's funeral preparations apparently soon afterwards) seriously shook me for the next couple of days. Profoundly disturbing stuff, especially since it's all real.
