It is that time of year...when almost all movies released are scary ones. I went and saw Annabelle and here is the true story behind the real doll:

The original Friday the 13th, I remember going to see it when it came out in '78 or '79 (memory fails me), at the time I was a camp counselor at a Boy Scout camp in Florida and we went as a group to the movies and some of opted to see this one. Well I can tell you that as a 12/13 year old, bad choice lol...being at a scout camp in the woods with a lake named eerily close to the one in the movie, led to same scary nights lol!!!

Amityville Horror. I remember watching it as a kid, then running to bed to hide under the blankets.

I don't know much about scary movies, LTC Private RallyPoint Member . Well, actually, Carrie (1976) scared the bejesus out of me and was a good one.

This "scary" commercial is the tops in my opinion. Classic! And funny!!

Poltergeist was one that really scared the you-know-what out of me as a youngster.

Clowns were forever ruined for me by "It". That damn Pennywise....

None, don't like em, but if I had to say one that affected me in several ways, let's go with Phantasm (had that little ball flying around to hit you in the head and bleed you out) or JAWS!

Favorite? Or the one that scared me the most? I am not a fan of horror movies, so I don't have a "favorite". However, the Exorcist scared the everliving piss out of me when I was a kid and I refuse to watch it this very day.

There has not been a really good "Scary" movie in a while. They are either Slasher films which rely on the jump scare tactic that, quite honestly, is predictable these days. Now, as far as psychological thrillers are concerned, Mothman Prophecies was really cool. The 4th Kind is awesome, too.

The Mothman Prophecies (2002)

Ridley Scott's original Alien. First saw it when I was probably about 9 or 10. Scared the absolute crap out of me. I remember for weeks staring at my closet waiting for a face hugger or alien to come out and get me.

Not a huge fan of horror movies but I love the "Friday the 13th" and "Halloween" series. Yes, I know the latter movies are corny and cheesy but the first 4-5 were pretty decent.

The worst movie for me though is "Poltergeist". I absolutely refuse to watch that one...again. I saw it in the theaters when I was in 7th grade and, to be blunt, it scared the beejesus out of me. Nope, never again will i watch it.

I am not sure if I have a favorite. Although it is not considered a scary movie, the first Jaws was really scary. I never looked at the beach (lake) the same way again.

I'm not a horror movie fan at all after seeing "The Exorcist" I've seen a few over the years but my favorite movie that scares me is the classic, "Jaws".
