What movie was it that first introduced you into the world of horror and made you realize you had a sick twisted mind?

From what i can remember, the first horror movie that got me hooked on the genre was rawhead rex or american werewolf in london.

I can't really remember...I remember horror movies I wanted to see like hellraiser and scream and so on....I guess back when I was young I even had good taste. I think the first proper horror movie I saw and I am proud to say I saw was halloween (1978 version of course) I may have been 11 or maybe older it didn't scare me but it still got me hooked and I just loved it and since then I have always found horror movies to be my favorite genre of film

The Thing: Saw it when I was 9 and I had nightmares from the Kennel scene.

Does Silent hill (game version) count, that freaked me out, films don't but that game did.

The first horror film I can remember seeing that got me into horror was Nightmare on Elm Street, saw it at a friend's sleepover birthday party when I was in primary school.

I barely remember these memories, I was so young. But as far as I can remember, it was two movies that scared the shit out of me.

1. An American Werewolf in London - I have no idea how young I was, but when Peter I believe, pops up, and his skin was green from decomposing, scared the shit out of me. I turned around in our old big chair, because I was just scared shitless.

2. Night of the Living Dead - I was laying down in a sleeping bag in my basement, probably about the same age if not older as I was above, and right when Barbara heads upstairs in the house, and sees the dead body at the top of the stairs..... I was so scared, I turned around in my sleeping bag, and I think I might have cried myself to sleep.

Without those two movies, I probably never would have gotten into Horror.

The TV series 'V'. Taped most episodes as I wasn't allowed to stay up till it started. It's not really horror, but as I was about 11 at that time, it was pretty scary and graphic.
At that age I memorised the tv-guide by heart, taping every movie with a scary review, so soon I saw Jaws, Hellraiser, Phantasm and stuff like that.

Halloween 5 was the first horror film I saw. I was probably 7 or so, and I saw in the TV Guide that it was on HBO at like 4 am. So I secretly woke up early to watch it because I had never seen a horror movie.

Yeah, even at the time, I thought it sucked.

Haha nice last comment.

SNAP dude!! sleepover and my friend took round Wes Craven's New Nightmare and I just thought it was crazy shit, I have never been more scared in my life, I was 9 years old and I think i slept with the light on till I was 12.

Not that it matters but I wish I saw ANY of the first 6 movies to show me who Freddy really was and not the crazy sick sick sick slasher he was in New Nightmare.

I never seen a horror before and seeing a robotic hand come to life was something spectacular and something SCARY as ever.

Discos - my friend was supposed to take round the Excorsist as well, whatever.

OH man, I remember Freddy scaring me too!

I freaked when I saw his claw come out of the water between Nancy's legs in the first one, and I ran out of the room when I was really little.

The robotic claw scared the shit out of me too!

Movies ain't scary, but even today the first Silent hill freaks me out, the others are fine but the first one is truly mad.

You said

You should check out the actual videogames for that. They are waaaay scarier.

I think he was talking about the video game.

The first movie that really made me into a horror fan and also scared the piss out of me was Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors.

I was 6 or 7 years old, I think.

I was, that game was just pure madness.

I've only played the second game once.

I really should buy the games, all I've gotten in the horror genre of games are the Resident Evil games.

There not very scary at all, the second Silent hill was good, I really liked that one, it was not scary but it was good, and it introduced the great Pyramid heads.

Hahahaha, I remember playing Silent Hill 2 with my gay friend Jeremy, and when you first encounter one of the creatures, and you have to bash it with a block of wood, he was screaming, "Kill it!!!". Hahaha, it was sooo funny.

I just remember asking myself, "The fuc......?" when a lot of the enemies were introduced. Especially during that part when the first or second pyramid head you see is humping some dead body in the kitchen.....

Did you ever finish the game?

the ending was a real shock?

Sadly, I didn't even get past the apartment building, I believe

I only got to play it once. I'll have to buy it, for I don't own it. What SH games do you recommend for buying?

The first Silent hill, and the 2, the third one is an add-on to 1 like a purpose sequel just to that one, but it's not that good, the 4th one features the Apartment featuring the guy who killed himself in SH2, with the soup spoon, that is a good one, I recommend the first 2, and if you like them then get the 4th one.

The 5th one comes out soon as well.

Interesting! Definitely a game to play with the lights turned off?

Indeed the 1st one is the scariest, but the Second one adds depth, fear and psychological torture in as well, the second one does play mind games with you, and I do mean it messes with your perception and the way your mindset thinking, as Well as Crazy Eddie, and one of the Most shocking endings of all time.

We were all in our sleeping bags along the floor in a row, and of course I was nearest the door, so keep looking around the chair to see if anything was there after watching the film, ha ha.

What film

The only movies to scare me as a kid was the original TCSM and the original Halloween. Both seemed fairly realistic and not too far-fetched.

TCSM?

I understand Halloween, to be fair you never saw any violence at all, which means it leads you imagination to decide, which is more terrifying, it also mixed the camera angles with the disturbing foregrounds, they should have left it at 2.

TCSM= Texas Chain Saw Massacre

Yeah that is why Halloween scared me. It wasn't your average blood-bath, fake-looking gore horror movie.

And he was believable, I mean he could have been wearing a bulletproof jacket, we all know he was not but still, he was super human but not to ludicrous, i always say they should have stopped after 2,
Halloween 1, 2
FT13 1, 2, 3, then after these they became ludicrous.
Child's play 1, 2 they are funny.

resident evil was a game i never played but enjoyed watching other people play, i wasnt scared i dont think but i couldnt wait to see what happened next and it did give ya a good jump.

Cheers for sharing dudes.

When I was younger the ending of the original Halloween scared the hell out of me.

Actually, i think the first silent hill game distrubed me more than any horror movie.

thats a great story. I bet you felt like james bond eh. Learning how to decipher the TV guide and using some Covert Op techniques in sneaking out with not waking up the enemy.

I remember sneaking out to watch patrick swayze's Red Dawn. I had just seen Road house, so swayze was like a god to me then. I saw a preview for Red Dawn, a new patrick swayze movie i hadnt seen. That movie ****ed me up though. I didnt sleep properly for days. I kept fearing that russkies were going to parachute down onto our roof and porch.

I remember the first times the sirens rang and the world transformed into a chain linked vision of hell. Like, the game wasnt already disturbing enough. The school portion of the game will always stay with me. STOP THE FVCKING PIANO PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh of course, and the weird camera angles, and the little midgets with knifes, that would just not die!!!!

I don't remember precisely that which movie got me interested in the horror genre.

But following movies are among the earliest horror movies I have watched and they have indeed inspired my interest in the horror genre:

1) JAWS II
2) Evil Dead 2

JAWS II was probably the first one that I watched among these two.

Jaws 1 was far better, scarier and well greater then II.

The first Jaws scared me when I was a kid. I lived in Nebraska, and I was scared of sharks. shock

this is gonna sound stupid, but The Ring is what got me started on horror films.

I have to admit, that first one was quite scary when I first saw it. My dad and I laughed so hard when we saw the chick in the closet, not because it was funny, but because it was quite shocking, heh.....heh....

Silent hill game is madness, true horror, as for Jaws never had a problem with the film, however the same can not be said for the things outside the film.

I remember seeing the ring (remake) at my friends for a sleep over...I was up all night cause my sleeping bag was by the fire place and after watching that film it wasn't where I wanted to be

who else liked the way Halloween (original) was directed?

Hahahaha, I had this girl that I used to be friends with spend the night at my house, and we watched The Ring together. Shortly after, she fell asleep, and I was still awake, watching another movie. All of a sudden, she woke up, sat up, and yelled, "DON'T TAKE ME! I DON'T WANT TO GO!" and I was totally shocked, so I grabbed her, shook her a bit, and said, "Hey! Wake up! You're fine, nothings wrong!" And then she closed her eyes, and went right back to sleep.

So weird.

Dawn of the Dead, something so sinister there, so much so I had to own Dead Rising.

Did you try and slap a few times...spray her with the garden hose maybe?

that is wrong, just sick and wrong.

I am joking

I know, why do I bother.

Christina gave me wood when watching that movie as a youngin

She was hot back then...*sigh*

Zombies

"what do you mean......Zombies!!?"

What are you talking about?

"We don't use the Z word"

"Here's a lockpick. It might be handy if you, the master of unlocking, take it with you."

"your gonna need a bigger boat."

Ok I shall stop, yes Silent is probably the Scariest thing I have witnessed.

The silent Hill movie freaked me out when I saw it for the first time

I was talking about the GAME, the movie is pretty pathetic, the Game is pure madness.

I know you were talking about the game...but I haven't played the game so decided to talk about the movie instead...little burnt girl ghosts freak me out

Trust me the game.......well just NEVER let a Child play the game trust me, even Adults get warped by it, seriously for phycolgical purposes it's a bad game, I don't mean the game is bad, but what it can do to you is bad.

I doubt a game will do any damage

Trust me this game messes with your head, the 2 one at the end, you find out you have being playing as a psycho, who murdered his wife.

I've played the first Silent Hill only, good game. I enjoyed the film version also, not scary though...

Very true, the 1st one was scary, the 2nd one was weird.

As far as movies, I think it was Silver Bullet when the werewolf comes to the house and is staring in the window. I jumped out of my seat about twenty feet into the air.
