Lol, Night Of The Living Dead.

My brother and I watched it on KTVU's Creature Features, hosted by Bob Wilkins.

It was pouring down rain, lots of thunder and lightning. Of course, we armed ourselves with baseball bats and kitchen knives, you know, just in case there really were zombies out there.

Night of the Living Dead is probably my fave as well. For me, it bred a real sense of paranoia to the point of looking at my parents house and trying to figure what areas needed the most boarding up.

Another movie that did me in but good was a British film made in the early to mid 80's called "Threads". It was about nuclear war and its devastating after-effects going several years after the event. Not so much creepy or gory, but just an overwhelming sense of dread and hopelessness.

"Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things" was one that I awoke to playing in the middle of the night on Halloween when I was about 8 or 9 years old and had to watch. Too scary for me to turn away and too scary to let me go back to sleep. I rented it a few years ago and found it incredibly cheesy, with its hippy protagonists and all.

"Alien" has been talked to death here, but deserves another mention.

And rather strange perhaps, but "Eyes Wide Shut" creeped me out to no end. Something about secret societies and all, plus the fact that you know every one of those idiots wearing the masks voted for Clinton.
