OMG.
not watching that again.
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
OMG.
not watching that again.
They just talked about "Home" on this week's Extra Hot Great podcast, and then they did a thing with all horror movie music, and I was fully creeped out.... by the time I got to work at 9 this morning!
What are the scariest episodes of Supernatural, or Angel?
For Angel I'd plump for "Are You Now or Have You Ever Been." It's dark and lingers in that horrible way.
Dollhouse had some super creepy episodes in the backstretch of its last season.
Hec, of those horror movies, is Asylum one that you've watched? I'm now curious as to how it ends, and can't find the identity of the former asylum chief and what happens to the new candidate.
I haven't seen Asylum, billytea. But I bet they have it at my ultra-well-stocked vid store, and now I'm intrigued.
Seriously, you can't get a spoiler for it on Wikipedia? Lame, Wikipedia!
I've got a long fascination with horror anthology movies.
Dead of Night - Michael Redgraves and the world's scariest ventriloquist dummy.
Black Sabbath - Boris Karloff's sole portrayal of a vampire is one of the best ever.
Spirits of the Dead - Fellini's "Toby Dammit" is uber-cool.
Trilogy of Terror - Karen Black vs. the Zuni doll.
And the Twin Peaks episode where Bob comes over the couch....
Man, I was babysitting by myself watching that episode, and there was this thumping noise I couldn't identify, and I tried to get my mom to come across the street and watch it with me but she wouldn't b/c she was watching it at home and was too scared. (The thumping was bass from a party down the street).
From early SPN, I would say the one with the shadow beasts where Daddy Winchester finally shows up. And maybe the hellhounds, and I should just stop because I can't remember any episode names. "Hookman" scared the crap out of me, but I'm susceptible to that kind of stuff.
Scary Angel episodes... "Habeas Corpses?" Or was it "Corpus?" You know, the zombie lawyer one.
On a semi-related note, I sold my Buffy s2 and s4 DVDs and now can't do my annual rewatch of "Halloween," "Fear Itself," and "Hush." Hrmph.
For horror TV, the original Lars Von Trier Kingdom would be my top pick.

I almost bought that today! Only $4.95 for two volumes on VHS.
But, I decided I could probably get the DVD for something close to as cheap.
Still - it's awesome!

I wanted to like the American remake, but it was just confusing and sort of blandly disturbing. Not sure I can sit through subtitles, though.
Speaking of scary TV, I dare you to watch this British PSA from the 70s. Damn! That would've scarred me good.
The original Kingdom is the only thing I've seen close in tone and effect to Twin Peaks.
