John: Sorry I'm late getting to this post, but it depends on what kind of horror flicks you like. I'm a lover of scary, haunted house, types of films so "The Changeling" with George C. Scott is my all time favorite. The Exorcist terrified me when I saw it at the ripe old age of 21 in 1975. I still have a hard time watching that one.

Another great thriller is "The identity" which is from last year I believe. More of a "who's doin' it, keep ya' guessing" type of movie with a group of folks that were drawn to an out of the way motel in Nevada during a flood. Very good actually.

And of course "The Entity", from the 70's, is a great incubus/demon ghost story. This actually happened to a woman in San Pedro, California, not far from where I live. I have the true documentary of her ordeal.

Last, but surely not least, is a documentary off of Discovery or A&E called "A Haunting in Connecticut" and another called "A haunting in Georgia." Both very good and VERY frightening.

Hope this helps. I think I'll pull out my old VHS videos this long weekend.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING FOLKS. BE SAFE.

OH YEAH!! WHEN I WAS YOUNG IT WAS "THE BAD SEED" AND "THE BEAST WITH FIVE FINGERS." There was also one that would be very fakey if I was to watch it now, but it was called "The Invaders" I think. It was about a little boy who woke up to see a UFO landing in a field close to his home. The Aliens ran around taking his family I think and they only had three fingers. They tried to make a remake of this, but it was stupid. Sorry....had to add those.

Oh my, that one also scared the beejeezers out of me. Esp when they showed the mental hospital (which was very close to where I went to HS) and I realized that this could have happened near my hometown for all I know.

They re-ran it around Halloween this year. I made the mistake of watching it. Another sleepless night.
