Lol, yeah his dad was a nice fluffy werewolf.

I saw American Warewolf In London when I was about 10 and I was on my own. I had nightmares for months and the worst bit was the woman lying on a bed in the woods and she suddenly opens her eyes. I couldn't get that image out of my head. Also saw Saturn 3 around the same time about a robot that goes mental and I had nightmares it was going to come in to my bedroom. My parents wouldn't have let me watch films like that but I used to sneak downstairs when everyone was in bed to watch TV.

Teen Wolf was more silly than scary but it's probably worth another watch for the nostalgic sound track alone. 80s films always have very noticable upbeat sound tracks. Secret Of My Success is a good example.

American Werewolf in London is still the scariest film I've ever seen, I think. Love it.

The Fly II was the film I saw as a kid and didn't sleep for months afterwards.

I know I've seen that but I can't remember much about it. Is it Eric Stoltz? The first Fly is bloody disgusting too. So gross. (And excellent.)

I couldn't drink milk for a long time after watching The Fly. Not sure if I've seen The Fly II.

The Ring (remake) messed me up for a few weeks after I saw that. I thought I might need counselling. Gives me the creeps just thinking about it.

Yeah, I don't watch films like that. It's for the best.

I apparently saw the original one ages ago, but I can't remember a thing, I've blocked it out. Too. Scary.

Everyone I know who have seen both versions tell me I should watch the original because it's so much better but not in a weird way like the remake. I don't like scary films so I'm in no rush to go through that again. I don't mind gore like Chainsaw Massacre type films but I can't handle supernatural, little girl ghosts horror.

They are the absolute scariest.

Are you both afraid of dolls, by any chance?

Too bloody right I am.

I knew it! Can't understand this terror of dolls.

I have a bit of a scam going when I watch scary films and instead of watching it through my hands during scary moments like everyone else does I just focus on the corner of the screen. That way it looks like I'm watching it and I can still see and hear what's going on but nothing will make me jump.

If you want to look hard and cool it works a treat :D

Talking of dolls I got one from Santa when I was 13. I'm not sure if he was taking the piss buying a 13 year old boy a Cabbage Patch Kid but I hated it. It made me wonder if my mum thought I was gay and I got no end of abuse from my mates. It was a male one and the head had a nice plastic smell that I liked but I was never in to dolls or action figures or teddys os anything like that so I was really f**ked off with Santa that year.
