Is there a film that scares you so much, you won't watch it?

For me, it's Pet Sematary.

I read the book as a teenager and it's one of two books to ever give me nightmares, and although I enjoy it, I barely read it. I know what happens in the end and I do not want to see that on screen... even my step dad has only rewatched it on DVD once and he turned it off just before the end.

Any horror movie. I don't like them at all.

Only one I've sat through is Blair Witch Project and I loved it as it looked realistic due to using camcorders

No, there's a few of the horror films I won't watch because they're just blood and guts and not really a psychological thing which is my preference x

None that scare me, many that bore me. I don't really buy into films as being realistic, but don't really like overdone violence in any media anyway.

Day after tomorrow troubled me a bit, if that counts... the psudo science was semi convincing.

No. Some have been outstanding in their time. Blair witch was good. Saw (the first one) raised the bar and defined the gore movies. The original poltergeist was good. Exorcist. But nothing scares me really. I'm always aware they are actors, and just a film.

I won't be watching The Woman in Black again. Without fail, every time I've seen any adaptation of this - on TV, on stage, or the film, or for that matter read the book, I've had awful nightmares. There's obviously something in it which really gets to some part of me.

Explicit horror might be shocking and require watching through your fingers but it never has any lingering effects on me unlike The Woman in Black.

Skeleton key did something similar to me. The ending just didn't sit right.

No, I haven't come across one yet. But I don't watch horrors, I just can't watch any violence or gore, I'm a total wimp. I like horror books though, I can interpret what is going on in my own way, that is acceptable to me, but to see someone else's interpretation on screen in all it's bloody glory, nope.

I love a good psychological thriller though (just have to hide during the violent bits).

I can't watch it either, like you I read it many years ago (I'm a lot older than you so that's how much it affected me) and I've tried a few times to watch it but I just can't, the sight of Zelda fills me with horror and I'm not afraid to admit it

Another one for me is The Hunchback of Notre Dame, I saw it when I was about 7 round an aunts house, the original version with Charles Laughton, it gave me nightmares for years

The book kind of bored me and the film - the remake - made me jump in a few parts, but the play... my god.

I saw it a couple of years ago in the theatre where it was originally performed, and it's a small room, maybe 200 seats so it's intimate. There's a part where the stage goes completely pitch black, and Arthur lights a match and the woman in black is leaning right over his shoulder... I jumped out of my skin, and even now I sit up at night in the dark to make sure she's not leaning over my bed.

Oh God no to Zelda... years ago I was flicking through channels without looking at the TV, and I came across PS, heard a like 'GAHGAHGAHGAH' noise, knew exactly what that would be and flicked straight on.

I always said I wouldn't watch The Exorcist or the original Salem's Lot, but I have and I own them, I don't watch them often but I was curious about them... but I'm not at all curious about Pet Sematary!

I gave up watching the Saw Films after the first one as i found it too gory.

I don't like watching The Final Destination films either. Took me ages to go through a car wash again without taking a snorkel with me, just in case

Think it was Paranormal Activity -

Ghost Dimensions made me have a really vivid dream bot long ago that made me half wake and jump up off my bed thinking of seen something. It didn't stop me from watching it again though. I Love horror films and if they can genuinely scare me abit it's even better and makes them even better to watch

Sounds like something I would do, something about that feeling it gives that makes to good to watch.

I'm not a fan of watching the conjuring on my own. I will though, but have to really be in the mood.
