Writer's Block: Fright Show

Oddly enough, it's an old-ish Disney movie called "Watcher in the Woods". For some reason my aunt and uncle rented it for me when I was spending the night with them. I think I was maybe six?... ...and it freaked me the hell out. (My guess is they figurd a Disney movie couldn't be too bad.)

My brain realizes that now it's not so,so scary... but I watched it a few years ago, and it still freaks me out. It's scary with concepts, the power of the mind/collective people, and lack of trust. Those movies are the ones that get me the most--even still. The closer you get to "it could happen" the more it freaks me out. Though, admittedly, my range of "might happen" may be a bit broader than most.

Don't get me wrong... "The Ring", "Wrong Turn", and any slasher film can make me jump and startle me. But they don't make me scared when I curl up into my covers at night.

Alllllthoughhh... that one girl that threw up in "The Sixth Sense"... I had the damnedest time getting her out of my head. Dunno why.
