Question
Hi... im back, i have realize that the amount of blood and guts or the scenery is not relative to the amount of scare I'm looking for.
When i watched Midnight meat train, it didn't scare me, my reaction was "oh, look that guy eyeball" or "woo, that man is amazing with that hammer", so those scenes impressed me.

I don't care about the year, but when I'm watching the movie and   the effects are really poor i get pist off.

*for me, the way i would scared someone is showing a normal scene and then from nowhere showing a scary scene*
*i really like The Strangers*

Thanks....

I have been a movie fan all my life,especially scary/horror type movies. I am a trivia buff in general but I am especially good at movies.If someone I know doesn`t know the answer to a trivia question, I am the person they call. My knowledge of horror movies would be from the late 60`s to presentI feel that I would be an asset to the site and I do enjoy helping others with questions that have them stumped.

Experience

Basically watching movies of all types(especailly scary type)since I was very young.I have an above average memory that I benefit from when playing most any kind of trivia game.I am someone that friends and family count on when they need the answer to a question that has them stumped.
