Well I'm not sleeping tonight, thanks.

I watched The Human Centipede trailer. Yep. Go look it up if you haven't seen it - I guarantee you will not shut your eyes for three weeks without seeing that thing writhing over and over behind your eyelids.

Watched the film, wasnt scared or disturbed for the entirety of it, just seemed in poor taste, all of it...

I very much suspect that if I saw the whole film it would wipe away the creepy trailer completely. I can't imagine seeing 2 hours of it and it still being disturbing. But 5 minutes? Yeah, it definitely made me wish I could un-watch it.

Damn, I loved Blink. The paranoia shot at the end was pure gold too.
But ignore me, I have a very odd "fear" response.

Something I can say probably freaks most people out seriously the first time they watch it though:
Marble Hornets.

I watched it a while ago and I lost some sleep over that, but after Entry 24 (I think) it got boring, and I can rewatch the episodes and simply admire the camera techniques and cleverness.
Entry 26 was a lovely return to form though, because it actually had Slender Man in after quite a while of nothing particularly interesting.

Your avatar is amazing..

Thanks, I found it somewhere down the back of the internet, and Lambi resized it and cropped it a little for me.

The Happening. Like when the little old lady just bashes her own head into the window.
Something about insane, suicidal people just really creeps me the fuck out. Even zombies which may do the same things, the same actions, creep me out less since they are just animated dead, basically nothing more than puppets, not just nuts.

Same thing happens in a book called Down Among the Dead Men by Simon R Green.
Bunch of people went nuts and started killing themselves. Was not able to sleep after that.

If they are killing themselves, why does it scare YOU?

 

[Marter]

The only thing that has kept me from sleep is my life, and me trying to figure it out. Movies and games haven't stopped me from sleeping before.

AWWWWWWWW you my friend win the award for the cutest avatar!

OT: Slender man freaked me out but so do lots of things

Fatal Frame. i don't think i will ever sleep with the light off again.

That is by far the only genuinly scary game that has ever been made. It's also the only one I;ve ever had to take a break to stop playing because I was getting paranoid IRL.

God dammit, I need to find my old copy, they cost about $150.00 now...

I think it was Fatal Frame 3, the doll room...
I remember shitting myself I was so scared.

EDIT: This happened because as I saw the ghost face in the wall, my cat jumped on my lap.

I swear that cat was trying to kill me.

I watched the old Doc. Who episode with the weeping angels today, because someone on this site suggested it, and I wont be sleeping tonight, thanks asshole...

o right, I need a discussion..

What movies/shows have kept you from sleeping?

Really? I mean yeah it was by far a very creepy episode of Dr. Who, but not worthy of losing sleep over. If it helps at all realize that no one ever suggests just taking a sledge hammer to the stony bastards and turning them into gravel(perhaps sleeping with one could help your fear). My suggestion is watch the recent two part follow up to that episode where there are plot holes abound when it comes to checking it against the original Blink episode.

 

[Toriver]

End of Evangelion actually made me go to a friend's place in the middle of the night just to have someone help me reason through the mindrape after I couldn't get myself to sleep, even though my friend hadn't seen any of Evangelion at all.

I thought of that, I was a few steps from sitting in the corner with a sledgehammer for the night.

Aye, "The Time of Angels" and "Flesh and Stone" were awful, and ruined the angels for me, but I can't deny that I expected it.

JAWS when your 10 years old (ish), couldn't sleep for days lol, well not easily anyway.

EVERYONE had this, after you saw jaws you were deathly afraid of going outside, you dont know why, you know sharks cant fly, but you're not taking the chance, and NO FUCKING WAY are you going to the pool today.

Signs kept some sleep from me for at least a year. I first saw it when I was like 10 at night, so it creeped me out a lot. I always manage to scare myself whenever I hear noises in the night, thanks in no small part to that movie haunting me to this day. Although, I'm sure if I were to watch it now, it wouldn't scare me much.

Also, some old Goosebumps book scared me. I honestly can't remember a single detail about it at this time, but I remember it scaring me shitless at my grandparent's house...

I mostly avoid scary stuff now, because of those adverse reactions as a kid. My friend was laughing all through the new Friday the 13th (I think..?) but I know I would have been legitimately scared.

 

[manicgreenapple]

Probably that Japanese movie Infection and the original Shutter movie. Oh god. That scene with the girl walking on the ceiling creeping closer and closer with her hair hanging down took about 5 years from my life expectancy. Oh and when I was a kid, that movie Child's Play with that fucking psycho Chuckie.

Most people say that they didn't like the two new episodes, but I really did. Found it almost as good as the first one, Blink (The end of Blink cannot be beaten!). I had a bit of trouble sleeping after that. But maybe because my window faces the garden, I can see out of it, and we actually have a stone angel outside of it... So I think that might have done something to help me stop.

 

[The Shade]

I do have to admit, the Marble Hornets series caused a little unnerve for me. Not really enough to stave off sleep, but enough to constantly check behind me on my late-night walks home.

Haha the episode was good, but hardly frightening. Are you 6 years old?
