Do Horror Movies Scare You?

[Violet]

So my question is, are you afraid of horror movies? Do you like them and do you like to be scared of them?

You can also discuss your favorite movies but that's not really the point of this thread.

Of the movie? No. Of the things in the movie? Unfortunately: quite.

I like a good movie, and sometimes a good movie is scary. I don't like being scared though, especially when I know that there is nothing to be scare of. In example, I suffer an acute terror of the darkness, or rather of what might be hidden within it. After watching something scary, such as a striga entering through (FUCK! NOOO DAMMIT! WHY THE HELL DID I EVEN CONTINUE WITH THIS EXAMPLE?!.... i guess it's too late now... dammit...) a window: I tend to populate the darkness with the possibility of its being there. Dammit, i even moved my bed away from the window in my room in large part because of the damn striga, and I don't deny the leeryness I feel towards the window i could reach over with my left hand and touch. As much as I enjoyed supernatural, I completely regret having watched it now.

I *really* don't like feeling terrified. Another person somehow has a calming affect upon me... alas: said other people are not around when I want them
