I wish we could go see this together. Mrs Rangi is still reluctant to leave Little Rangi with someone for a couple of hours so we can go see this
Blair Witch 1 is the only movie to give me the genuine scares
Only movie ever? Man, the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre scared the daylights out of me.
Blair Witch got me but not until about 30 minutes after the movie ended and my friends and I discussed it in the car. During the movie I wasn't scared at all. I liked it, but I wasn't scared.
Beyond that...
original Texas Chainsaw Massacre
The Shining
The Omen (original)
The Exorcist
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me
The Day of the Locust
Those fucking GOT me. And I was at least 15 by the time I saw each of those. The original Nightmare on Elm Street scared the shit out of me too, but I was 6 when I watched that.

Brits seem like they should be too emotionally repressed to achieve melodrama.

I love Michael Shannon but he's been in some bad movies lately. 99 Houses wasn't very good, but he was great.
