Hi All,

Here's a Friday fun question (but with a bit of a head start): what are your 
favorite scary movies?

Gary, you probably have a videography, don't you?  Broken down by genre, 
country of origin, director...  :)

Cheers,

Matt

2011-10-13 Thread Deg Farrelly
Probably "Psycho" - the original, of course

Even tho I've seen it multiple times

Have never been fond of horror films, but remember as a kid seeing "The
Day the Earth Stood Still" on the "Saturday Night Movie" on TV and being
scared out of my wits.  Circa 1961/2 I think.

Same kind of reaction to the Twilight Zone episode with Agnes Moorhead as
the old hag fighting off alien invaders Who turned out to be from the
USA.

For November we like to feature videos that have something to do with food, 
eating, gathering, etc.  A few example are Babette's Feast, Eat Drink Man 
Woman, Home for the Holidays, and What's Cooking?.  What are your favorites?

2011-10-13 Thread Tatar, Becky
I can't really watch scary movies.  Can't sleep afterwards.  But I do
like the originals of Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll & Mr Hyde with Spencer
Tracy, and the best - The Uninvited with Ray Milland.  I have heard that
the best ghost story is the 1961 version of The Haunting, with Julie
Harris.  However, I read that book once, and had nightmares.  I can't
even think about watching it.

I've always been a fan of Hellraiser and Hellraiser 2, though after that the
series went downhill.

In the more "thriller" range - the Swedish version (not into the American
one) of Let the Right One In is a lot of fun

28 Days Later was pretty impressive

 

If you like funny, I'm a Shawn of the Dead fan.though Hot Fuzz was actually
better

 

One of my favorite genres!

I still think that "Alien" is a horror masterpiece. I made the mistake of 
sitting in the third row of a theater with the sound cranked up to 11 on the 
opening weekend and had to leave before the end of the first hour. I returned 
later that night with friends for reinforcement and sat way in the back.

show it on 16mm on our porch every Halloween.  It's a big hit with the

You can follow Nosferatu up with Shadow of the Vampire (2000)...Willem Dafoe 
does an equally creepy Max Schreck.

Gary, you probably have a videography, don't you?  Broken down by

And I made the mistake of going to see "Alien" when I was very pregnant with 
our first child.  Not the kind of scene a mother wants to sit through, that 
on-screen birth.  Definitely the stuff of nightmares before going into labor.

I still think that "Alien" is a horror masterpiece. I made the mistake of 
sitting in the third row of a theater with the sound cranked up to 11 on the 
opening weekend and had to leave before the end of the first hour. I returned 
later that night with friends for reinforcement and sat way in the back.

Mine are actually tv schlock horror pieces, that left a big impression on me as 
a kid. There's three:
 
1. "Let's Scare Jessica to Death" (thank God I wasn't alone when I saw it; I 
was under a tent with my cousin Linda in my livingroom).
2. "Trilogy of Terror," with Karen Black. This has to take, hands down, the 
award for being the scariest, craziest most out of control bizarro narrative 
out there. Yeesh. My skin crawls thinking about it.
3. "Bad Ronald." Good Grief, what a creep fest this one is. Who the hell ever 
came up with this in their tristed imaginations?
 
The last from my psychedelic 70's childhood I saw in a theatre, where daddy was 
friends with the projectionist, and I got to sit in the booth and play with 
film cans:
 
4. "Arnold," starring Roddy McDowall and Stella Stevens. What a hoot that film 
was. Why dad took me is beyond me. I guess for making up for all the Disney 
stuff I dragged him to. But he managed to get this kind of stuff in as well as 
Brynner's "Westworld." (It was the first feature film to use digital image 
processing.) Yikes. It has all made me a very well-rounded person.
 
Don't know if these have been mentioned, but there's the perenially creepy 
"Eyes Without a Face," subtitles won't bother you and "Peeping Tom." 
Chs!

Reading the other responses reminded me of going to see Todd Browning's
"Freaks" with the other "AV guy" when we were both in grad school.

It may not be as scary as some of the other films already mentioned
But we were stoned to the gills that nite (it *  was  * the 70's,
afterall) and the film totally freaked me out.

I'm one of the few that thinks The Blair Witch Project is possibly the scariest 
movie ever--for some reason, it pushed my buttons and scared the bejeebus out 
of me. Paranormal Activity also had its effective moments. The "found footage" 
genre is a guilty pleasure for me.

As for older films, some of my favorite scary movies would include (in no 
particular order):

The Haunting (1963)
Psycho
The Wolf Man (1941)
Nosferatu (both Murnau and Herzog versions)
An American Werewolf in London
Alien
The Uninvited (1944)
Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956)
The Fly (1986)
The Wicker Man (1973)
Night of the Living Dead (1968)
The Changeling (1980)

And in the guilty pleasure category:

The Legend of Boggy Creek
Plan 9 from Outer Space
The Tingler

Yes, that final shot of Karen Black smiling into the camera definitely stays 
with you.

There were quite a few well-done, scary, made-for-TV movies back in the 
'70s--those you named, plus I remember the original Don't Be Afraid of the 
Dark, and The Night Stalker.

And the elusive Killdozer, of course...  :-)

Anyone from Pittsburgh?  And old enough to remember “Chilly Billy” Cardille and 
his Saturday night television program, Chiller Theatre?  Bill came on after the 
11 p.m. news ended and featured horror, fantasy, and sci fi films.  My sister 
and I scared ourselves nearly every Saturday night while we were growing up.  
Chiller Theatre was my intro to horror films.

I'm one of the few that thinks The Blair Witch Project is possibly the scariest 
movie ever--for some reason, it pushed my buttons and scared the bejeebus out 
of me. Paranormal Activity also had its effective moments. The "found footage" 
genre is a guilty pleasure for me.

As for older films, some of my favorite scary movies would include (in no 
particular order):

The Haunting (1963)
Psycho
The Wolf Man (1941)
Nosferatu (both Murnau and Herzog versions)
An American Werewolf in London
Alien
The Uninvited (1944)
Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956)
The Fly (1986)
The Wicker Man (1973)
Night of the Living Dead (1968)
The Changeling (1980)

And in the guilty pleasure category:

The Legend of Boggy Creek
Plan 9 from Outer Space
The Tingler

Two films in particular gave me nightmares when I was a kid, and continued to 
haunt me well after seeing them. Saw them in black and white on TV. "Forbidden 
Planet," with the Id monster melting through the metal doors. Nothing can stop 
it! The electronic music made it much scarier. "Invaders from Mars," (The 
original of course) .. people being sucked into sand whirlpools with the creepy 
choral swells. 

I have two drive in stories if anyone wants to keep reading. My wonderfully 
warped Dad took my brother and sister and I to see "Wizard of Oz." The thing 
was he didn't tell us where we were going, and told us we were lost. By the 
time we pulled into the drive in I was already upset, and the flying monkeys 
finished me. Nightmares ensued. 

My parents also took us to see Hitchcock's "The Birds" at the drive in. I was 
afraid of it before we even went, and begged with them not to take me. No 
babysitter for me! I spent most of the movie under the dash in the front seat, 
and managed to take a peak just as the guy with the pecked out eyes was on 
screen. I was ruined. A Peter Paul and Mary record was on continual spin on our 
record player at home, and I had "Lemon Tree" repeating in my head while 
watching the movie. The song was imprinted with my terror, and haunted me for 
months. I still can't hear that song without seeing pecked-out eyes.

Two films in particular gave me nightmares when I was a kid, and
continued to haunt me well after seeing them. Saw them in black and
white on TV. "Forbidden Planet," with the Id monster melting through the
metal doors. Nothing can stop it! The electronic music made it much
scarier. "Invaders from Mars," (The original of course) .. people being
sucked into sand whirlpools with the creepy choral swells. 

I have two drive in stories if anyone wants to keep reading. My
wonderfully warped Dad took my brother and sister and I to see "Wizard
of Oz." The thing was he didn't tell us where we were going, and told us
we were lost. By the time we pulled into the drive in I was already
upset, and the flying monkeys finished me. Nightmares ensued. 

My parents also took us to see Hitchcock's "The Birds" at the drive in.
I was afraid of it before we even went, and begged with them not to take
me. No babysitter for me! I spent most of the movie under the dash in
the front seat, and managed to take a peak just as the guy with the
pecked out eyes was on screen. I was ruined. A Peter Paul and Mary
record was on continual spin on our record player at home, and I had
"Lemon Tree" repeating in my head while watching the movie. The song was
imprinted with my terror, and haunted me for months. I still can't hear
that song without seeing pecked-out eyes.

Probably "Psycho" - the original, of course

Even tho I've seen it multiple times

Have never been fond of horror films, but remember as a kid seeing "The
Day the Earth Stood Still" on the "Saturday Night Movie" on TV and being
scared out of my wits.  Circa 1961/2 I think.

Same kind of reaction to the Twilight Zone episode with Agnes Moorhead

Carnival of Souls ROCKS!

One of the oddest films in B film history.  Directed and shot on a
shoestring by a bunch of industrial film makers during a down period on a
job assignment near Salt Lake. (Herk Harvey, the director...very strange
guy) The ballroom scene is one of the creepiest in movie history.

Oh, all right. I have been holding out. It's more a psychological thriller that 
flat out horror film (I just watched it for the first time in how many years, 
last week), but it is horrifying: Has anyone out there seen "SSS"? Makes 
"Snakes on a Plane" look like a pre-school romper room. Strother Martin (in the 
role of Dr. Stoner) and the fetching Dirk Benedict are quite game in this, 
another personality shaper of mine, from the early '70s.
 
Eileen, I wish I knew the name of the film, sounds just awful, but reminds me 
of how "Jaws" and "Rollercoaster" respectively ruined family trips to Florida 
beaches and Cedar Point Amusement Park in Ohio. And I will never forgive my 
mother for dragging me to Gloucester when I wanted to stay home so I could see 
the Stones. Childhood's a wicked thing, hahaha.

"American Scary":

Oh, all right. I have been holding out. It's more a psychological thriller that 
flat out horror film (I just watched it for the first time in how many years, 
last week), but it is horrifying: Has anyone out there seen "SSS"? Makes 
"Snakes on a Plane" look like a pre-school romper room. Strother Martin (in the 
role of Dr. Stoner) and the fetching Dirk Benedict are quite game in this, 
another personality shaper of mine, from the early '70s.

Eileen, I wish I knew the name of the film, sounds just awful, but reminds me 
of how "Jaws" and "Rollercoaster" respectively ruined family trips to Florida 
beaches and Cedar Point Amusement Park in Ohio. And I will never forgive my 
mother for dragging me to Gloucester when I wanted to stay home so I could see 
the Stones. Childhood's a wicked thing, hahaha.

unnerving. But then I'm not a very confident camper to begin with, always
figuring I'll be the first camper dragged out of the tent to be devoured by
beasts or hacked to bits by hillbillies.

Also agree that "The Birds" and "Alien" are some of the very best... and a

"The Spiral

"The House of the

and speaking of scary made-for-TV movies (I just recently saw the bizarre

The first time I saw Eraserhead, I stayed up WAY too late watching it on home 
video. The next morning, when I thought back about the movie, I thought I must 
have fallen asleep and dreamt parts of it, it was so strange. And creepy. And 
unsettling.

The second time I saw it, I realized I hadn't dreamt any of it, which made it 
all the more disturbing...

I can't honestly call it a favorite--too nightmarish for me to want to revisit 
it. Ever.

I second Kolchak--both the original TV movies and the series. Scared me to 
death as a kid, but couldn't miss an episode. For me, the scariest episode of 
the show was "Horror in the Heights," written by the great Jimmy Sangster. A 
horrible flesh-eating monster entices you toward it by assuming the form of the 
person you trust the most. The fact that it looked like my idea of Bigfoot only 
added to my terror...

Re: [Videolib] Friday fun question, early...

2011-10-14 Thread Logan, Michael
Just the TV commercials for Boggy Creek would send me fleeing from the room. I 
didn't actually get around to seeing it until about five years ago, but now 
it's a favorite. A crude precursor to Blair Witch, really. I wish someone would 
clean it up and reissue it--there are quite a few PD editions out there, but 
the quality is mediocre at best.

I'm with ya on the Bigfoot thing--"he" was definitely the monster that 
terrified/fascinated me as a kid. I remember trying to figure out where in the 
U.S. I could move to that would be furthest away from any potential sasquatch 
encounters.

And where did I ultimately relocate to? Humboldt County, 
California<http://www.bfro.net/GDB/state_listing.asp?state=ca>...

Michael, I’m still scared of Bigfoot all because of The Legend of Boggy Creek.  
Well, and because when I was a kid I watched every Bigfoot movie and read every 
Bigfoot book I could find.  But The Legend of Boggy Creek was the scariest.  I 
also noticed this on Amazon the other day:

I'm with you on "The Blair Witch" project, I found it terrifying and really 
unnerving. But then I'm not a very confident camper to begin with, always 
figuring I'll be the first camper dragged out of the tent to be devoured by 
beasts or hacked to bits by hillbillies.

Also agree that "The Birds" and "Alien" are some of the very best... and a few 
other good ones came to mind last night:

"The Spiral 
Staircase<http://www.moviegoods.com/Assets/product_images/1020/196846.1020.A.jpg>"
 (1945)
"The House of the 
Devil<http://seriousmovielover.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/house_of_the_devil_500.jpg>"
 (2009)

and speaking of scary made-for-TV movies (I just recently saw the bizarre "Bad 
Ronald," it's been released on DVD for the Warner 
Archives<http://www.wbshop.com/Bad-Ronald/1000179737,default,pd.html?cgid=>!), 
has anyone seen "Dark Night of the 
Scarecrow<http://adamantiumbullet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/dark_night_scarecrow.jpg>"
 (1981)? My sister and I watched in on TV—alone—when we were kids and it 
totally freaked us out.

As for older films, some of my favorite scary movies would include (in no

The Haunting (1963)
Psycho
The Wolf Man (1941)
Nosferatu (both Murnau and Herzog versions)
An American Werewolf in London

Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956)
The Fly (1986)
The Wicker Man (1973)
Night of the Living Dead (1968)
The Changeling (1980)

And in the guilty pleasure category:

The Legend of Boggy Creek
Plan 9 from Outer Space
The Tingler

O.K, like I just told Robin, who contacted me off list, there is the ONE film 
that made me decide that I wanted to be a film librarian, that I saw when I was 
16. My girlfriend Val's super cool art school teacher mom Sylvia (we're fb 
friends; Val and I aren't, lol!!) took us to the University of Buffalo (UB), 
which alway had strong student union film and other programming, to see 
Polanski's "Repulsion." Now if that's not a lurid, scare-your-socks-off film, I 
don't know what is. Again, it's psychologically terrifying, not gory. I 
remember that day like it was today. It changed my life. Became a psych 
student, then a film librarian. Thanks so much, you fugly perv. You were/are 
brilliant.

As an introductory short you might run the music video for Do Fries Go With 
That Shake? by George Clinton. It takes place in a drive-through burger joint 
and the part where George's wife traps him in the bottom of a chocolate malt is 
striking as well as appetizing.

This one is not well known but totally brilliant, A CHINESE FEAST by
Tsu Hark. It ends withsort of a cook off to the death between the good
chef and the bad chef, basically like Samurai film with food. An
earlier scene involving a petty criminal who becomes a chef to be with
girlfriend and ends up wrestling a giant fish in the kitchen makes me
laugh just thinking of it.

Never understood why it is not a cult classic.

For November we like to feature videos that have something to do with food,
eating, gathering, etc.  A few example are Babette's Feast, Eat Drink Man

relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control,

working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication
between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and
