I agree with others on here, now that I lost religion, and the belief in ghosts and demons, that stuff no longer scares me; I can no longer take it seriously. I usually find most of them funny. The Shining is a good movie. There are some other classics that I need to see. I usually watch Halloween, Halloween II, or Nightmare on Elm Street in October. The only movie that I saw that I thought was intense in the horror genre was the remake of The Hills Have Eyes. I probably had just graduated high school around that time, so I don't know how I'd view it now, but I remember my heart pounding in the theaters haha. Horror movies are usually easy to predict, and just suck ass IMO and I've seen a lot of them until giving up on them the last 5-6 years. Although, I gave American Horror Story a shot, and enjoyed the first two seasons.
