August 5, 200322 yr Made in 1980, its a horror movie about something that slaughters teenage counselors at a camp. Its scary as hell and the incessant night and rain make it even scarier. Some guy was lying on his bed smokin a cig and a spear poked up from below, cutting his throat. Then another girl was in the bathroom and got axed in the face. I kinda laughed at that one tho cuz the scream was so fake. She was like "eek" and then it showed her slumping to the floor with an axe in her face. Im gonna have nightmares for weeks...
August 5, 200322 yr The original Hallowee is still scarrier, IMO, because it mostly messes with your mind. The rest of the movies in the franchise have sucked royally (except for the sequel, which only slightly blew).
August 5, 200322 yr Author Have you seen 28 Days Later? Was it any good? Still, the rain, night and music makes this movie rather scary. Ya know how no scary movie ever takes place on a nice sunny day? Ya gotta have that gloomy setting. Altho it would be interesting to have a good scary movie where a buncha people get slaughtered one by one at noon on a nice little beach in Key West...
August 5, 200322 yr Have you seen 28 Days Later? Was it any good? I haven't seen it, but a friend of mine who has nearly the exact same taste in movies as I do saw it and she said it was horrible, so I'm going to go with her judgment and not blow $8 for a 2nd opinion.

August 5, 200322 yr Author And I think its just scarier. Think about this movie. Incessant rain, endless night and a camp hidden deep in the woods. Its a very gloomy setting. Down at the beach on a sunny day, its nice and joyful! Its not gonna be scary if ya have some clown running along cutting peoples throats on the beach...
August 5, 200322 yr Author Whoa. The killers a schizophrenic, psychologically disturbed mother of a child who drowned at the camp. She seems to think shes the child and the mother. Freaky...

August 5, 200322 yr Author Exactly. And in these horror movies all the protagonists act so stupid! Its incredible. A body falls outta the tree and they run around in a circle like where do I go now? Run ya moron! And then the last counselor knocks out the murderer like three times and then runs away only so the monster can get up and come try to kill her again. Geez, Id cut her head off and burn the building down. Ya can never be too safe...
