    The McPherson Tape is a documentary style-e film about a family having their house invaded by aliens. It was revealed to be a hoax some years back, but it's still supposed to be scary stuff. But I can't find it.

    I've seen all that other stuff before. My favorite cartoons on Fat-Pie are Alan and Scribbler. 'Tis imaginative stuff t'be sure. As for the Rubber Johnny thing, I bought that DVD thinking it was a feature length documentary. I felt jipped. Still creepy as hell though.

    Ah a fellow Vasquez fan, excellent! :D

    Unfortunately it doesn't get much better than that!

    You could try find some real life videos, there are images out there that could make you wake in a cold sweat.

    It was clearly dramatised and very silly.

    Ghostwatch which the BBC did on Holloween night in the early 90's was much better. You can get it on DVD.

    Gwah... I posted that same thing here a while back, scary scary stuff:eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,066 ✭✭✭youcancallmeal


    There is some seriously disturbing stuff out there.
    A few that come to mind that truly wish I had never seen.
    The video of some guy shooting himself in the head while in police custody.
    That picture taken of a child somewhere in africa crawling along the ground with vulchers sitting around waiting for him to die. I think the guy who took the picture committed suicide some months later. Oh yeah and if you havent seen 'goatse' or 'tubgirl' I reccomend googling either ;)

    I remember seeing that on sky digital a few years back, brilliantly done


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,680 ✭✭✭Tellox


    I saw the mcpherson tape ages back, scared the absolute ****e out of me. Very eerie stuff. Wasnt claimed to be a hoax back when I saw it, mind. Still, very good to watch. Could never find it again though - it was sky movies I saw it on. Or premier, or whatever it was called back then. If anybody finds a copy of it, send it on in this general southeasternly direction.

    Final Destination can be rather gruesome. I wouldn't go as far to say it is scary, but its gruesome anyway

    Sounds Japanese to me.

    The face only appears after the edit as well.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,937 ✭✭✭fade2black


    Aye, could be right. There's a lot of ghostly videos on that youtube. Would love to see ghost watch again. I remember one scene where the camera pans around a bedroom and there's a bald man in the corner, whenn the cam goes back he's gone. Great stuff for its day. Sarah Greene FTW as they say.

    Ah yes. It really was very well done. Well worth watching again...

    Pipes was the name of the ghost.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,937 ✭✭✭fade2black


    Surely it's available online somewhere...

    I watched Ghost watch on my own when i was around 13/14 and it really messed with my head!

    I remember I couldnt sleep for months and I couldnt bear being in the house on my own.

    Wouldnt mind seeing it again, although I'll probably watch it with the cushion over my eyes!

    Did the ghost had a really strange voice??

    Well done on ruining the thread, what did it matter what the poster typed, did it change the quality of your troll life?

    I found the McPherson Tape, downloaded it, and watched it. What a load of cack. Utter rubbish. I was rediculously disappointed. It was very, very obvious it's fake. The delivery was rubbish, the aliens were rubbish, the spaceship was rubbish, and some of the camera shots were blatently placed to "forward" the story. Also it was as if the start of the tape was to introduce all of the members of the family and give their history, as if it were setting the scene.

    Admittedly the script was quiet good, but it could have been something far better and much creepier.
