"THE EVIL DEAD" Scared crap out of me and still does.However the most "Disturbing"movie for me anyway is "Looking For Mr.Goodbar"Somthing about it that I find extremely disturbing,not at all sure what it is.So I just don't watch it.
TVTeufel..Gunsmokes bartender SAM (Glenn Strange) also played the Frankenstein Monster in a couple cheezy flicks,one was Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein..

"Horror at 37,000Ft" was a Twilight Zone show, and then re-made as a segment of the "Twilight Zone" movie in the 70's.

There was a period in the early 70's when ABC had a regular horror movie every couple of weeks and I am pretty sure this film was part of that series as was Trilogy of Terror w/ Karen Black. I remember both of these well and they both creeped me out.

I can't recall the name of one other movie from this series. In it the main character is a 20's something girl who moves into a large, old home. Living within the walls are these dwarf-like things wearing black cloaks & had prune shaped heads. They could not stand the light and were very nasty. I had trouble leaving the lights off after seeing it. Does anyone remember this film?

Although I cannot remember any specific plots, I do recall episodes of "Circle of Fear" & "Night Gallery" that hung with me for weeks. Even "The 6th Sense" and "The Magician" had their moments!

Crap, it's all coming back now. There was even an episode of "The Streets of San Francisco where these 2 old brothers lived in an old mansion and a kid died on their property so one of the brothers sewed him up inside a large clown doll to hide him. Wrong, wrong, wrong on so many levels! I don't think I slept much between the ages of 11 & 14 yet found myself watching this stuff every chance I got.

I remember this one Night Gallery I think it was, the whole show this girl thinks this guy is a vampire, all the signs point to him being a vampire and the reason folks are dissapearing, finally somehow they confront each other and he shows her himself in a mirror's reflection and is like "see I'm not a vampire" she is relieved UNTIL HE TURNS INTO A WEREWOLF AND EATS HER!!!!

I'd love to see that one again!

Not even an entire movie, but the scariest thing I ever saw was in the movie Carrie. I was a teen, just come home and turned on the tv. Did not know what I was watching. Came in at the scene where the girl is putting flowers on the grave. Won't spoil it for those who haven't seen it, but it scared the crap out of me. I bet I jumped about 5 feet into the air and screamed like a little girl.....

one where this guy had a fear of spiders. He saw a small one in his apartment and killed it. Then he saw a bigger one and washed it down the sink. Then a bigger one.

At the end (if memory serves, and this has been a LONG time) he goes to a neighbor in a hysterical state. The neighbor tries to calm him as they walk together back to his apartment, then the neighbor shoves him in his apartment and locks him in. The camera then pans to a GIANT spider. (Not sure of the accuracy of my description.)

I wish the Night Gallery series was available on DVD (it may be though, I haven't checked). What a series!

Aww, man! Night Gallery ! Remember the one about The Earwig? Or the one about the guy who could "die" when a certain series of raps were sounded out? Clint Howard played a kid in one who could tell the future-and saw the sun going supernova ? Why can't they do stuff like that on TV anymore? Cheesy reality shows & 12,587 different versions of "Law 'n' Order"- Puh-Leeze...-Sandy G.

A Clockwork Orange (the start, anyway) until you realize it happens now all too frequently.

And a special mention to "Killer Klowns from Outer Space" - not particularly scary, but it hits every base...

SPL db · #70 01-31-2006, 10:44 PM

Another movie that comes to mind was the original "The Haunting" in black & white...

More of a suspense movie...

Not really scary at all, but kept me on the edge of my seat, and not too many movies do that for me!

Did you mean that earwig episode of Night Gallery?

Eeeew!

How about "Phantasm", anybody else remember that one? I grew up on SF and horror flicks and very few of them ever really bothered me, but for some reason that flick just totally creeped me out (I'm sure it didn't have anything to do with the fact that I was higher than a kite when I saw it

, not that it was a terribly unusual condition for me to be in back in the late '70s

)

Sandy G · #73 02-01-2006, 06:12 AM

Uhh, yeah, Soundmotor, that was the one..and, yeah, "Phantasm" was sort of a "mind-phuque", even if you WEREN'T "under the influence". That damn shiny ball whizzing thru the air & then augering itself into somebody's head....Sheesh !-Sandy G.

Toasted Almond · #74 02-01-2006, 09:36 AM

Soundmotor,

I do vaguely remember the one with Karen Black. In the very last scene she is squatting, scraping the knife back and forth against the floor, with that LOOK in her eyes. THAT creeped me out.

There was also a good creeper about The Bermuda Triangle with Kim Novak. At the end they rescue her in a helicopter, and once they get her aboard realize that SHE is the problem. Another good ending to what I remember was a pretty mediocre movie.

#75 02-01-2006, 11:25 AM

Oh yeah,

Trilogy of terror with Karen Black, and that scene at the end... that was heavy stuff. Now though, those prune headed little demons make me laugh just to think about them. 70's made for TV special effects have not dated well, for sure.

How about another with Karen Black - Burnt Offerings. Not a slash 'n' gore horror movie, but a great haunted house story with a shocker of an ending, well, at least the first time you see it.

Have to agree with previous posts about Deliverance. That was the kind of movie that makes you cringe, because the things portrayed there could actually happen. And that
"squeal like a pig boy..." is about the most sickening bit in the whole movie.

I just thought of another one that spooked me - I think it was it Hellraiser. The one with the guy who had all the pins stuck in his head in a perfect criss-cross pattern and a whole cast of other gortesque perverts. That was some messed up sh....tuff.
