Well, it wasn't a movie, but the Twilight zone episode "To Serve Man" scared the crap oout of me for years.

That's the one where the 7' aliens come to Earth and present a global peace plan and a book to the UN. Peace ensues and folks start migrating to the Kanamits home planet. One of the crytographers working on deciphering the book, who's title of "To Serve Man" is all that's been decoded is leaving for his trip to the alien planet when his assistant runs up to him as he's getting aboard and shouts something like "Dr! Don't go! It's, it's ............a cookbook!!"

It ends with the scientist sitting in his room on the alien spaceship and not eating. One of the aliens comes in and says "Dr, you haven't touched your lunch? We wouldn't want you to lose any weight"

Sheesh, Rod!!!!!!

Scared the chit out of this 12 year old!!

You're exactly right Sandy, her name is Kyra Schon. I've never met her in person, but she and I are both members of a horror movie board, and she seems to be a genuinely nice person. Tells some great stories about starring in NOTLD, and being in the horror movie industry period.

The original Alien movie really did a number on me! Of course I was 9 at the time and have never seen anything close to a horror movie like that before. I felt that the movie was ahead of its time for 1979…

Horror Hotel has a jump cut it in that still gets me shaking. It's when a coven of witches is about to sacrifice a girl. The knife comes down until it just touches her chest and the you see the same knife at the same speed going into a birthday cake!
Carnival of Souls Is another one that still creeps me out to this day!

As a kid I was a big fan of Bill Cardille. My mother & I lived in Uniontown Pa. in the late 1960's while dad was overseas. We watched "Chilly Billy" every Saturday night. The show (out of Pittsburgh) was called "Chiller Theatre". He'd run 2 movies and in between commercial breaks he'd comment on the movie. The guy smoked like a fiend. The movies always scared the shit out of me but in later years the same movies would be ridiculled & poked fun at on "Mystery Science Theatre 3000".

It seems John Bloom...aka "Joe Bob Briggs" used the same shtick in his "Monster Vision" show on TNT in the mid-late 1990's.

In Richmond, we had the "Bowman Body" on channel 8, who was the host for the Creature Features. He'd do the commentary on commercial breaks, was so effin' bad, he was good..We'd get good 'n' drunk, or "otherwise", & watch the Bowman Body Show late Sat nites, & howl at him...-Sandy G.
