A Warped Witch I Be

I loved Vincent Price, just rented the Pit and the Pendulum to watch again. I heard it read at a Poe event, I came home and read it again myself then watched. It brought back some cool memories of watching Vincent Price with my friends.

I remember The Birds so well, which is a miracle, considering my memory of late. But that movie didn't scare me. Maybe. Vincent Price did more. It might have been the tone of his voice and his special kind of articulation.

I am a bit the same. Those movies you mentioned such as Saw and Chainsaw Massacre I couldn't watch those. However I love things like Monster series on Netflix and just watched The Ed Gein Story and loved it. Which is strange to say but I think for me the real life horror is more psychology type thing. Why are these people the way they are?

I flip flop back between do I believe people are born evil or is it their environment etc.

In Ed's case I think that his mother and father had mental issues which can be hereditary, so most likely he had mental issues when he was born and then his upbringing with parents, especially his mother manifested those mental issues. It maybe could have been different had his issues been picked up when he was younger and helped. He eventually was diagnosed with schizophrenia.

Anyway, probably didn't want to read all that ha ha ha.

I can't imagine why anyone would do that. I've never understood the point of daredevil stuff. Thanks for sharing!

In response to "Chaos "

Our world is so dependent on the internet and electricity, it would be utter chaos and dangerous. I can't imagine hos much crime would take place in a world like that.

Some scenario's make it seem impossible to live. Everyone would learn to deal as they found abilities to cope.

Horror Movies

Prompt: Horror Genre
Do you like the horror genre, and what was the first scary movie you saw or the scary book you read if you remember it?

I love writing horror stories but can't watch horror movies! I go back a long way and like all teenagers I liked being scared out of my wits, but safely, with a strong pair of arms to shield me.

Vincent Price movies were popular in my day. The Pit and the Pendulum, The Hand and others of the same ilk. Later came Psycho, The Birds and anything directed by Alfred Hitchcock. But the slasher movies of today such as the Chainsaw Massacre and Saw, well, there's no way I could even begin to view those.
I don't mind psychological horror movies such as, Seven with Brad Pitt.
