I've noticed that many young people aren't scared by The Exorcist nowadays. Perhaps they can't understand the impact this movie had 20+ years ago when no one had seen anything like it before. For those (like me) who saw it way back when, it remains the scariest movie ever made.

One of the most important factors in being scared by The Exorcist is being brought up Catholic and believing the theology which is behind the story. Your derision was unfairly directed at Onhell, who happens to hold just the right religious beliefs for this movie to scare him. I myself was Catholic when I first saw this movie, and that was also a major contributor in my being scared by it.

I'd also recommend reading the novel upon which the film was based. In my opinion, the book is much scarier than the movie.

I couldn't agree more. It scared me for the two things SMX mentions above and while I didn't see it in the 70's (i'm only 22) just thinking that it was MADE in the 70's... I was impressed... and scared. Not to Mention the book IS better however I have to say that the movie is of the few (if not the only) that is up to par with the book. People always say because it is usually true (not the case with eaters of the dead) that "the book is better than the movie," in the case of the exorcist, the movie does not dissapoint in comparison to the book.

*looks down and starts shuffling feet* Sorry Onhell, I wanted to feel like a big shot [!--emo&:unsure:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/unsure.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'unsure.gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
I have just watched "The Omen" and I think it's a great film. A bit predictable but a horror classic none the less.
I recorded "Damien: Omen2" but the tape ran out before the film finished. It was just at the bit where he was told by the guy in school to read the book of Revalations to find out who he was. I was wondering if there are any websites where I could read the script of the remaining scenes.
 
The most recent movies I've watched are; Iron Maiden - Rock in Rio and the beginning of Pearl Harbour

As we all know, Rock In Rio is amazing, no need to go over it.

Pearl Harbour bored me a little and I fell asleep after about 20 minutes...I prefer movies that have action right from the beginning all the way to the end.
 
'Some Kind of Monster' is a good movie, it's quite good to laught at Lars shouting "FUCK!" in James' face.
'The Bourne Identity' is on ITV on wednesday, i'll probably watch that.

TBI is good damn good, so is The Bourne Supremacy. SKOM was cool, especially when Lars screamed into the microphone in such a pissed off manner. And of course the Camp Chaos thing too.

James: "Money good, Knapster bad."
 
I don't know if I would be able to get it loading well. My connection sucks worse than a Dyson. [!--emo&<_<--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/dry.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'dry.gif\' /][!--endemo--]

Well there's a game where you have to squirt water at James where he catches fire [!--emo&:lol:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/lol[1].gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'lol[1].gif\' /][!--endemo--] The difficulty levels are 'Fucking Easy' 'Fucking Hard' and 'Fucking Impossible'.

Everyone should go to www.campchaos.com !
 
I've seen lots of movies during my time away from here.

Worth mentioning are The Terminal - a great film about a man from a fictional Eastern European country (brilliantly played by Tom Hanks) who goes to New York, but due to a war breaking out in his country can neither enter the city nor go back home, and is forced to live on the airport - and The Interpreter - an excellent thriller which for once isn't plagued by pointless effects and action. Both are well worth seeing if you haven't already!
 
Seen "Terminator 3" on Saturday. I've seen it in the cinema but forgot most of it.

To be honest, I must say the Terminator series, despite all clichés it spawned, despite Schwarzenegger, despite the really shallow background story and all that has been built around it, is a trilogy of really good films.
 
Shit blows up, shit gets shot, shit goes back in time, shit is made of metal, shit is made of liquid metal, shit gets stabbed through the face. What's not to like?
 
I've seen Monty Python's Life of Brian and it was illarious.So idiotic (in the good way), so sarcastic... Especially the ending, when 50 or somenumber of crucified men start singing "Always look on the bright side of life..." Surreal [!--emo&:lol:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/lol[1].gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'lol[1].gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
The first time I saw that film was in religion class.

Yes, I had odd religion classes...
