Who here as seen The Excorist?

Again, with a film like the Exorcist, the Hype can either create a better (or in my case) terrible experience.
Having been born in the mid Eighties, I grew up with films which started to embrace visual effects etc (this is in no way my favourite type of film) ..and so I cant fully* grasp onto the time-line context of such a film...and ultimately the effectiveness.
I thought the film in itself had a great gimmick, but the actual horror* of it all was rather comical. I cant believe People walked out of Cinema's..but again..Americans always seem to interact with the screen alot more than English people. ( when seeing video footage..American audiences scream out etc...you would be lucky if you got a murmur in England)

Over Rated in my opinion.

i watched it an didnt find it that scary. but thats cos everybody was saying how it was like the scariest thing ever so i expected something really terrifying but it wasnt as scary as people made out. Its still quite scary though, but i find it hard to get to scared by films.

It was extremely scary in its day - not so much now.

Its the theme that makes the film, not the visual quality.

I saw it when I was a kid and it scared the hell out of me!!! I still cannot watch it if I'm home alone. No way.  The voices and music just creep me out. A friend of mine laughs at me because I still think it's terrifying!! She thinks it's because I was brought up Catholic. I'm not so sure that's it! I think it's a great movie. Very good acting and it's not so out there that it feels unreal.

Yea

I scared to death of that Face Of Death that pops up every now and then.

The Excorist

What for a film?

The Ring probably scared me the most out of all the movies.  I was actually trembling so bad in the theater I had to get up and go outside for about five minutes to calm down lol.  But the Exorist really didn't scare me that much.

I think last year or the year before we were discussing child stars and my teacher told us how the little girl that was in the movie was actually really tramatized for awhile by having to play that role.  Poor thing. =(

I haven't seen The Exorcist. I want to see the new one that's out.


I was freaked out after seeing The Ring too. I would be lying in bed and I'd keep looking over at the TV scared it was going to turn on.

My fav part is when she spins her head.

For some reason 'The Ring' didnt do anything for me. I didnt find it that scarey, but i've read where it bothered alot of people. It must be me and my strange taste.

UGH, I hated The Ring, but The Excorist is probably the scariest movie have seen

The movie that scared me the most, i forget what it was called, but it had that little girl at the window playing with the toy? Can anyone help me out here? It was The O something.

One of the scariest movies I've seen was a British movie called "The Woman In Black." I slept with my pillow over my head after watching it.

over hear in britain they did a televised seance trying to contact the dead. me an my friend took part an i was pretty scared then. but i cant remember a film scaring me that much. that new one about the sharks an the people lost at sea looks pretty scary though.

        The one with Nicole Kidman?

The Others

Ghostbusters 2.

The Others was pretty good.

I know The Exorcist is an old movie but it still scares the mess out of me! It's the scariest movie of all time, hands down.

Did anybody went to see the new Exorcist movie? The reviews were bad and judging by the trailers the movie doesnt look good so I'll wait for the dvd to come out

I went and saw it.  It was a decent movie until the end.  The bad CG's kind of ruined it.  Definitely wait until it comes out on DVD to see it.

Ich bitte um Verzeihung ,aber meine Muttersprache ist nun mal Deutsch.

The Shining was pretty scary.  I laughed when I saw the old Exorcist movie...it was cheesy lol

The Shining, in my opinion, is the greatest Horror Film ever made.

I like this one.  Just how much wanking ARE you doing??

The Shining is one of the best movies ever. Jack Nicholson is so awesome. The kid with the talking finger kind of annoyed me though. REDRUM REDRUM! Oh, shut up!

I'm strange, but I actually thought that the made for TV version of the Shining was better than the movie.

I liked The Simpsons' spoof of the movie.

Homer: "No TV and no beer make Homer something something."
Marge: "Go crazy?"
Homer: "Don't mind if I do!!"

Really? I couldn't stand it. But Stephen King was very involved in it. Apparently he didn't like the original either. I love it. It's such a classic. I couldn't get into the new one.  I guess I just couldn't see the guy from Wings as that much of a threat!

Ha! Very funny. I like that they have to call it the Shinning because of copyright infringement or something. Treehouse of Horror are always cool episodes.

The Simpsons are hilarous

Wasn't Ralph Wiggum the one who said "Redrum! Redrum!" in that episode?

I think it was Todd Flanders who said "Red room, red room."  And it wasn't on that episode, it was on "Realty Bites".

I want to see the 3 part

I loved that!!!! 

Willy goes, "YOuve got the Shinning boy!'
Bart-"Dont you mean the Shining?"
Willy-"SHH!!!You wanna get SUED?"

Heh heh! Then Bart cringes everytime he has to say 'shinning.' Too funny. Didn't Willy get killed in that episode?

Is The Shining the one with Jack Nicholson?


Is it really scary?

Yeah, Jack Nicholson and Shelly Duvall. It's awesome and very creepy.
