Movies (Or general things) that freak you out...

[Brodie]

I've been thinking a lot lately about what scares me, or did, etc. And there's a few things, that just scare the flying hell out of me. So lets share.

1: Snakes and Frogs.
-These 2 animals make me freaked out to put my feet under my blankets. And I wear pants when I mow the lawn just incase I hit one of them so I don't get their guts on me.
2: Jaws.
-This movie made me afraid to drink anything, for a short time, but still. It scared me so much that I might get a damn shark to eat me from a cup.
3: Child's Play.
-This movie made me afraid of dolls (My mom collects them) and toys for a short time.
4: Frogs.
-Damnit they're so freaky that they get the list twice.

[Demonfox38]

1: Snakes
-Snakes are freaken' killing machines. I would not want to get on the bad side of a snake.
2: Being Eaten Alive
-Yeah, go ahead & laugh. I would not want to get in that situation.
3: Naked People
-Look, there's a reason humans wear clothes.
4: Being Strangled
-Ack! Slow, painful deaths = no fun!

EDIT: Woh, devil's post!

[That Matt Guy]

Being crushed to death.

[raphael90]

Spiders - don't know why, I just have this bad phobia when it comes to spiders. They freak me out seriously and I turn into a big sissy when it comes to them...yet at the same time I think I have this vague fascination with them..its weird.

[Jo Dawn]

3: Child's Play.
-This movie made me afraid of dolls (My mom collects them) and toys for a short time.

That movie scared the crap out of me when I was younger. It was the only movie that truly freaked me out. But that was probably because I owned a doll that looked kinda like a blonde version of Chuckie...

[Brodie]

The My Buddy dolls. Yeah, My mom insisted "Oh he likes it" Eff that. My grandma had one, mom bought me one, I threw it out, then it came back into my life again. I threw it away again and my brother got it out and chased me down the halls of our house with the damn doll and a knife. I was 3 or 4, jesus. And I threw my grandmother's in the river.

I remember we got videos from the video store one night, and it was like, a kids movie, but made by the same company that released Childs blay.Screen was black, then a jack in the box came on, the box began to wind up, dada-dun-dundananana-duh nuh-dah-nah SMASH "Sorry Jack--CHUCKY'S BACK!" I didn't sleep right for a year.

Movie: Battle Royale II.

Seeing middle-school asian boys and girls getting shot by automatic weapons and tank shells in a realistic movie really disturbs me. Also, small bombs strapped to their necks and being detonated at random times isn't that pleasing, either.

Yeah, those looked just like him. My brother had one of those. *shudder* I had another doll, too, that looked like Chucky... I think it's still in the back of closet. I'm not gonna be the one to release it upon the world... :P Seriously, I still don't like to touch it, so I leave it in the back of the closet...

Yeah, that can seriously mess someone up. You know, I remember that preview... *shudder* That was not right...

[Meeko]

Those glass eyed dolls eee :o just scare me
snakes also scare me
thats it

Oops... :evilgrin:

[XERO]

Graveyards. Stupid Living Dead movies... :(

[Anarky]

1. heat: i need a very good reason to take a pizza out of the oven. (note: fire's OK, but heat...)
2. people with guns (there's not much you can do with a baseball bat against a gun)
3. i used to be afraid of Michael Myers

I know there's more but i forgot it

[Taloniss]

1) Snakes
2) Spiders

Either of those two things freak me out.

[Hannah]

The torturous ways of death for the jews during World War 2. God damn it, I wish the germans would go to hell... But I'm part German. o.o My last name's german.. I'm my own enemy.

Any torture

Any painful way of death

Those cheesy yet creepy old horror movies

[bufo]

"It" by stephen king, man I've been afraid of clowns ever since I seen that movie.....still hate all clowns now :evil:

[damnhooligan]

1. Whales/Dolphins - Laugh as you may, I can't even watch educational videos about them without gettin' a major case of the jibblies. I've given serious thought to attaching a harpoon launcher to my Benz, just for ease of mind.

2. The Little Shop of Horrors - Yeah, it was a comedy but I had nightmares for the better part of a year thanks to my parents renting it when I was four. After that, I avoided flamboyant man-eating plants and Rick Moranis movies. One of the better decisions I ever made.

[Voltron]

The Exorcist scared the flaming crap out of me.

[Machias Banshee]

Two movies...



TREMORS

and

THE LANGOLIERS


*shudder* I can never touch the ground after those movies...

Oh yeah! I loved that part in Tremors where the mayor (??) and his wife (county singer Reba) were shooting the crap out of that worm!! Holy, did they waste ammo!

[cqb101]

Spiders(I can't even kill one of I see it...I just run)
Any kind of Extra terrestrial stuff( If I watch a special on UFO's, I won't be able to sleep for a week)
Ghosts(cuz, I've had some experiences. but that's a story for another time)

[Kali]

TREMORS...
I just saw that movie today. I personally love it, and its sequels, and the TV series. I'm still on the quest to find the fourth movie...

Anyway, I can't think of anything that really "freaks me out", except maybe losing visible body parts. Yeah, that's the one that'll make me shudder. There are a few things I'll avoid at almost all costs (shoes, phones, mirrors, cameras) but I can deal with no problems if I really have to.

I decided to create a thread for ghost stories so there it is.

[Cascadia]

1. Child's Play
2. I used to get nightmares for a year about one of my animal physiology labs-->I had to do rat heart surgery and eventually kill the rodent with euthansia.

I am not scared of anything else.

[Shreddette]

I have one normal phobia and two or three really strange ones that even I can't explain.

1. Spiders (ok that's common)

2. Anchors. Underwater. The double hook shaped kind. That scene in Pirates of the Carribean where the anchor was being dragged along the ocean floor among OTHER anchors was uncomfortable for me. I don't mind them when they're on land, they sort of freak me out then too but I can approach them if I dare. However if I were to be swimming along and all of a sudden in front of me or underneath me I saw one I'd probably scream, choking on the water and drowning. I'd be scared all to hell. Never been in such a scenario, but I fear it immensely.

3. Shipwrecks. Same idea as above. It's the underwater thing... things like that should be on land. Damnit. I'll NEVER to scuba diving around a wreck. I'll only do it to explore natural habitat.

4. Submarines (so many weird water ones!) I have this strange nightmare fantasy of minding my own business, swimming along and suddenly a sub coming at me, or coming up from underneath me. I also hate the T shaped thing on top of subs. That freaks me out.

I love to swim. This is what is wierd. I even get freaked out swimming in a pool if anchors come to mind. I am more likely to leave the water if I am in a lake or something.

I also fear death.
:tcouch:

That's crazy.

T thing? The periscope?

[The Defibrillator]

My biggest fear is being trapped underwater in a car or something. The ending scene of Simon Birch about made me pee my pants.

[Peanut]

UFO's and Aliens. Not aliens like from the movie aliens but the grey ones. I'm getting scared just thinking about it right now.

[愛]

I'm afraid of getting stabbed. Just the thought of something getting slammed into my body kind of weirds me out.

I wouldn't know if that's what it is, but you probably know so I assume that must be what it'd be. So yeah. I have a fear of a periscope! Bwahahahaha.

I think it is the movie, Tha Abyss... when I got freaked out by the scene where she was all alone (I think alone) in some kind of small underwater machine at the very bottom of the ocean and it was pitch black, when suddenly the light that lit her way shone upon a huge propeller of the sunken submarine. Thing. Yeah. It made me feel stunned with fear for a moment.

Stop starin at meeeeeeeeeee :P

[Meira-Bates]

I used to be scared of xenomorphs (like the aliens from the Alien movies) when I was little

Now a days it's tarantulas or any spider that looks furrish like a tarantula X.x I don't run, I don't kill, I just freeze in panic and then proceed to go berserk on them, or when I saw a tarantula on TV that showed up when I was RIGHT in front of the tv I screamed, tried to back up, and landed flat on my arse. @.@

There's also this wierd thing with a part of my house....when it's dark, if I'm anywhere near that one area of the house, ESPECAILY when I'm alone, I just freak out. For some reason that one area of the house always makes me feel like someone's waching me, breathing down the back of my neck, and waiting to slice me to little bits. X.x And this has only happened in one other place before (that being the dining room in a friend's house. where they had a LOT of windows that were left uncovered and had a clear view into the back yard.) It's only happened to me in those two places...so I dunno what's up with it...

[JaffleMan]

Black Spider's (any other colour and I'll pick up and take outside).
Wasps (bee's and snakes don't scare me.....strange)
UFO's/Alien's (as in the real deal if they exist)
Ghosts
Min Min lights
War
Religion (satan etc wondering if what really is etc......)
Movies gremlins/aliens/IT/Beetlejuice/Langoliers, watched all 5 very very young and all scared me crapless and still do today. The book verions of IT and the langoliers don't scare me however for some reason and their just as freaky as the movies.


I also used to be scared of clowns and Golbledox as a kid (yes that chip stealing alien, my sister used to tell me he was going to get me) but have long since got over my fear of both so i guess they don't count.

[Dane E5R]

Night of the Living Dead would be the only movie to truly scare me since I've grown up.. I've never been able to handle zombies. Couldn't even play zombies ate my neighbors as a kid. I've toughened up a bit, though. It takes "GOOD" zombies to scare me now. Like the ones in the Resident Evil GAMES (The movie ones were pathetic.) The other exceptions are C.H.U.D, Lord Raptor(Darkstalers), Quake, and that dude from Hocus Pocus. Oh yea, and the ones on Scooby Doo on Zombie Island, even though they were probably scarier than the ones in the Resident Evil movie.

As for real life, I can't handle spiders at all. I really, really hate the little beasts. I don't understand why God would create such hideous creatures. Couldn't he have just made more frogs or somethin'? (Sorry Brodie!) Everything about spiders, I hate. The only good thing to come from them is Spider-Man. If it were up to me, I'd wipe them from the planet. :D

Worms..Anything squirmy, call me a bitch, but I don't like things without legs (or too many.) I guess I'm just hard to please.

When I was younger, I always had this terrible terrible idea.. What would it be like if you had a hangnail, and someone grabbed and pulled it, and it went aaaaaaaaaall the way around your body, tearing off this loooooong string of skin, like it was string cheese. GAAHHH!

I would hate to be eaten alive, to bleed to death, be dipped in acid or lava, or crushed to death.

I would hate to see anyone I love murdered. I would honestly, quite honestly lose my mind.

Now on the subject of aliens.. If anyone's seen the movie Signs, remember Grahm's speech to Merril, about the two different types of people.. I would be in the 2nd class.
.......I'm done.

[That Matt Guy]

This is interesting, very interesting.

The only thing that actually scares me is my own death, or what that last minute of life before I die is going to be. Any way of death, murder or what not terrifies me.

No movies scare me, it's all fake bulls***.

i have the same fears as you exept the part about spiders. if i watch a special on ufo's or ghost i am so scared for that night.

[CookSux]

I don't really have much to fear... except:

1) Spiders. I dunno what it is, I'm not afraid to kill em, and I don't mind if they crawl on my skin... but I don't want to ever touch em or kill em with my bare hands. I had a lab experiment where we had to grab a live cricket and put it into a test tube, it just felt gross and I even had gloves on.
2) I used to be afraid of clowns and dolls... but I don't really care anymore. Clowns are only creepy if they come out of sewer drains, and dolls... I don't mind them unless they have glass eyes and talk to me.
3) One thing that really does bother me tho... not to an extent that I'll lose sleep (I have in the past) is spiritual warfare. I mean it's no big deal and I've gone through some creepy things in my past, but knowing that it's out there... my friends have had horror stories up the wazoo, and I'm afraid the next time I fall asleep and wake up in a deep paralysis (D-Stage) I'll see some demon dancing on my stomach. Yes... that has happened to me before except for the demon part, but my friends have witnessed far worse.

[Relay]

1) Spiders. I scream like a little girl if I see one that is not tiny.

2) Clowns/Mimes. What in the hell are those people thinking?

3) Old Age. I despise going to nursing homes. I hope when I'm old I don't end up in one. I'd rather have my family pull the plug.

[Skeletoncrew]

UFO's and Aliens. Not aliens like from the movie aliens but the grey ones. I'm getting scared just thinking about it right now.

Me too. I hate those things. Suffice to say, movie wise, "Signs" was pretty scary for me to watch, but I enjoyed it. :evilgrin:

Clowns are pretty freaky too, and if I think about it enough, mannequins and other close to human things kind of creep me out. Dead people don't bother me much, though the catacombs of Palermo (with thousands of mummified people on either side of the corridor) were pretty intense. I noticed that some of the upright bodies had lost their heads (they were usually placed with them) and couldn't help but think of how frightening it would be if one of those necks were to give way just as you were passing by. :o Heads will roll. :P

[Raven]

people, they scare me the most

[That Matt Guy]

Whats with the fear of spiders? One hard stomp and their gone.

[Skeletoncrew]

people, they scare me the most

Good answer. People are nucking futs! I'd know. :D

Seriously though, we're the most dangerous things on the planet. I'm far more likely to be killed by a member of my own species than a spider, snake, shark, or whatever. The really scary part is that not only might another human kill me, he or she (though most likely he) might also deliberately torture me as part of the process. The horrible things we do to each other astound me. Honestly, I try not to think about it too much. Its important to acknowledge the problems in the world, but you can't let them drag you down into apathy. The world is also a beautiful place.

[HorseTechie]

*nods*

Insects, spiders, and ants don't bother me. Or hairy centipeds and millipedes, or snakes. Or cockroaches. I am aware of the dangers some poise, but if you know how to best not provoke them, all is good.

What does freak the bejeebers out of me are:
1. Homicidal maniacs... like those in Silence of the Lambs or the Shining. You know, creeps based off of actual dudes! Jason and Freddy don't scare me... cause they aren't real.

2. Rapists. I swear, I had vowed to never ever be a soldier in any army, after seeing General's Daughter.

3. Evil Aliens... not so much the ones in Alien, but the kind that had questionable sightings right here on Earth. The tall scrawny kind, with really long fingers and those souless black eyes. The funniest thing... after seeing that movie ET for the first time as a kid, I got soooo freaked out of ET in his sick, pasty white state. For real! I would think he be dying under my bed, and then reach over the edge with those long cold fingers of his.... to TOUCH me! *shudder*

4. Poltergists... yes, I believe that ghosts exist. But it's the ones that want to do harmful things to humans that worry me the most.

5. The dark. Thank god I grew out of that fear. I had it bad when I was a kid. Being in the dark all by myself totally made me panic. I was better if I was with someone though. Also slept with a light on. :goofygri:

6. Worms, maggots, parasites.... bleah! I don't know what it is.. but they freak me. I have gotten used to earthworms, since I have to feed them to my turtle. But the nasty little maggots... and round worms even. Ugh. Totally nasty having to clean out the stall of a horse that just been wormed too... ewww!

7. Deadly viruses. Yes... those mass epidemic flicks, like "28 days" and 'Virus" really don't help keeping me calm. I hate being reeeeally sick. Yes... I alsl have the fear of throwing up. I will admit.. I never had drunk alcohol so much that I get that hung over. The thought of loosing control of my bodily functions like that is so... disturbing!

[Dane E5R]

Whats with the fear of spiders? One hard stomp and their gone.

That's why it's called an irrational fear. :wink: I really can't explain it myself, man. It's like.. Their appearance.. Coupled with the fact that some of them are capable of killing.. Any the way I see it, there's so many species out there, how am I supposed to know which ones are and aren't?

[Voltron]

I'm scared of everything. Honestly, everything.

[Jo Dawn]

I hate being reeeeally sick. Yes... I alsl have the fear of throwing up. I will admit.. I never had drunk alcohol so much that I get that hung over. The thought of loosing control of my bodily functions like that is so... disturbing!

I'm with you on that one, HT... That is probably the only thing that really gets me. Ugh...

[Skeletoncrew]

My boyfriend has a fear of vomiting too. Seeming kind of strange to me. Of course, I used to get motion sick alot, and nothing makes you feel better faster than just letting your stomach empty itself. That said, I've never gotten drunk enough to have a nasty hangover, vomit, or black out. Not bad considering how much I love booze. Heck, I'm drunk right now. :evilgrin:

[milweskee]

3) One thing that really does bother me tho... not to an extent that I'll lose sleep (I have in the past) is spiritual warfare.

I know exactly what you mean, man. You gotta be careful with some stuff. I can feel it when I'm around certain people. The tension I feel sometimes just has got to be spiritual in some way.

[Shreddette]

And then we'd be taken over by every other insect on the planet. :lol: Power to the insects!

No no no no.. See.. That's where the frogs come in.. :D


Nonono NO.

Spiders should be replaced with bats.
Bats rule. And they're cute-- especially flying foxes.

No offense to the fwogs. :goof:

[Kali]

Nonono NO.

No offense to the fwogs. :goof:
But not all bats eat insects. Some eat fruit, others necter, and a couple drink blood. And many people also fear bats. But I agree, more frogs and bats.

But if spiders are gone, we'll never figure out the formula to their super strong spider silk. Imagine if we could synthesis that.

[Machias Banshee]

:lol: That would be so strange. Some people people cant stand walking into spiderwebs, yet they'd be wearing spider silk clothing... :goofygri:
