The thing, did I mention the setting.

Seriously, if you havent seen it before, watch it, and the reboot.

Oh, and I love big trouble in little china.

Sorry the 2011 movie is a prequel, what was I thinking.

Jaws - because they needed a bigger boat.

Choc Chip · 10-08-2019 10:46PM

The ring.

Her nail peels off. Seriously. She creeps out of a TV. She terrified me for AGES.

Please be the ring.

Mam of 4 · 10-08-2019 10:47PM

Jaws , because it's a classic at this point .

Kolido · 10-08-2019 10:47PM

The ring was creepy but Jaws takes the biscuit for me.

khalessi · 10-08-2019 10:48PM

Jaws because its a great advertisement for spending bank holidays at the beach and its a classic

10-08-2019 10:48PM

Ring as jaws is not... Wrll ye know the rest

Heres Johnny · 10-08-2019 10:49PM

Jaws scared me as a kid and the ring scared me as an adult.
I'm sitting here home alone, off the drink because I stupidly agreed I'd run a marathon with the girlfriend in October, she's on holidays. I'd happily watch Jaws and not bat an eyelid, it's a great film but it won't scare me any more. I'm not going to be eaten by a shark now am I?
But no fkin way would I watch the ring.
For that reason, the ring gets my vote. Its a horror film that has scared me and stuck with me, one of the very few.

Choc Chip · 10-08-2019 10:51PM

I used to fall asleep watching movies and I watched the ring LOADS. I still get flashbacks to that bit in the credits where the nail PEELS off.

I love movies that scare me.

I know I cant vote again, but i love that movie.

bluefinger · 10-08-2019 10:51PM

Jaws wins. Ring is creepy but can't go swimming to do this day without wondering if sharks might be nearby. Haven't watched vhs in years.

Heres Johnny · 10-08-2019 10:52PM

For what it's worth, 3 movies I wouldn't watch before bedtime are the ring, the exorcist and It Follows. They really got to me.

10-08-2019 10:53PM

Jesus CC i used to do that too but i never tried it with horror movies thats the stuff of nightmares,

Necro · 10-08-2019 10:53PM

Tough battle again, Jaws winning 5-3 atm.

Still outstanding is Dawn of the Dead and The Thing, deadlocked at 3-3 currently.

10-08-2019 10:53PM

Jaws because it put me off swimming in the sea for far too long than I'd like to admit

See - so we shouldn't vote jaws because it negatively impacted on worldwide perception of sharks, increased irrational fear of them and human overreaction to their presence. Jaws killed sharks (I've actually heard that's true, but I've also been drinking).

Necro · 10-08-2019 10:55PM

And PJ sounds the death knell for The Ring.

Jaws is the 6-3 victor after a tight battle with The Ring. Sayonara Samara.

Great call on It follows. Thats a legit creepy show.

Tammy! · 10-08-2019 10:56PM

The Ring for me.

Jaws is a classic but I'm going with what I feel is more of a horror.

The first time I watched The Ring, I couldn't sleep that night because I had a tv in my bedroom. I had to put a blanket over it. Not sure what a blanket was going to do but it made me feel better about it.

Treue it did and Peter Benchley apologised in later years for that

TheValeyard · 10-08-2019 10:57PM

Have to be Jaws, classic, great theme tune, excellent acting and classic lines.

Walked the dog in the park at night time after watching that and gave myself the creeps!

Necro · 10-08-2019 10:59PM

Ok for the benefit of moving the game along my decision on Dawn of the Dead VS The Thing is as follows;

I need to rewatch The Thing, because I just don't remember it in the same light as some here. I remember being bored with it.

On the other hand I actually prefer the modern remake of Dawn over the original (sacrilege, I know!) so I'm in a tough bind.

Zombies and zombie movies are my jam though, so for that reason I will vote for Dawn of the Dead. Just.

Kolido · 10-08-2019 11:01PM

See folks, brown envelopes do work.

Heres Johnny · 10-08-2019 11:02PM
