    Your son freaking out at the thing in Signs reminds me of a time when I was a kid and it was around about Christmas time and ITV were showing some old hammer movie, or some kind of Xmas ghost story thing from the 1970s or something ... anyway, the clip I saw (as my Dad was channel hopping) had some old dude get pushed down the stairs - the guy gets killed, but we cut to a close up of his face and his eyes were WIDE OPEN and staring right into the lens - I wigged out and had to bury my head in my knees.

    Ever since then wide open eyes, like scary wide open, have creeped me out.

    Now I bet some motherfucker's gonna post a pic of a guy staring creepily ... or that guy who can make his eyes bulge out.

    Oh, if only I had the time here at work to search out a creepy eye pic, i'd be just the motherfucker to do it.

    Isn't it strange how one thing - the eyes in your case, and the johnny depp death scene for me in NOES - just sticks with you and never lets go? Even when we know now it's not real? It's interesting how one small non-event can have such an impact that years, sometimes decades, later and you still cannot get it out of your mind?

    I guess it's as they say - "what has been seen cannot be unseen!"

    Actually nah ... it was just odd looking, not freaky or scary.

    Tough titties ... try again.

    You waited too long. By 14, everyone has already been exposed to too much mind-numbing WWF, Disney Channel and Michael Bay. You needed to traumatize him with Texas Chainsaw Massacre at 8.

    Now THAT would've been a hoot - that is, until he decided he was so scared he had to sleep in mom & dad's bed for the next 6 years.. Not a concession I was willing to make at the time.

    Man alive!

    First time I saw that movie was first year uni, so I was 18 at the time, I was promptly floored by it and then didn't see it again for several years - it's still visceral and shocking and really quite haunting, but bloody nora - just imagine showing that flick to an 8 year old!

    I can't believe he is in high-school. That is insane. Just think, in 4 years he will be an adult. How is that for scary?


    i was born in 1982........those films scared the shit out of me as a kid. but oddly enough, the jason series did nothing to me

    wouldn't that be considered some kind of child abuse?

    Nah. It will put hair on his chest. Besides, It isn't that American shit for teenagers.

    Do you even own a copy of Cannibal Holocaust?
