I thought I had seen them all, Bela Lugosi's Dracula, Lon Chaney,Jr's Werewolf and Boris Karloff's Frankenstein are just a few of the classics.
Then, earlier this decade, I see Jeepers Creepers and I was spell bound! Jonathan Breck as the Creeper, has to be my all time favorite winged menace. He beats the boots off of Batman and makes Tom Cruise seem boring in Interview with the Vampire. I'm sorry kids but this one's rated R so you'll have to Google it yourself.
I just got back from Target and I can't find Jeepers Creepers 1st & 2nd movies that were supposed to come out on Blue Ray, (& DVD) this Halloween, arrrgh. >.<
I guess I'll just have to satisfy my creepy need with the TV?

So, what's your favorite scream scene? How long have you enjoyed this movie?
and Why?

Jeepers Creepers is a dying breed in the movie industry when it comes to horror. This movie honestly has something that most horrors don't these days, which is execution. It brings all the horror elements together perfectly, but I still think Nightmare on Elm Street (the ORIGINAL) is the best horror movie.

ps: I hate modern horror movies because they're all for blood and gore, there rarely is a plot

Lawls, you can take what you said about execution at least two ways: plot execution or the gore of execution!

I don't like the horror movies of the 90's because of all of sexual references. It just gets boring after a while.
I agree w/you Wolf when it comes to Nightmare on Elm St., the original. No one, 'til Breck, made me jump the way Freddie did but I actually had nightmares of the Creeper.
My favorite Horror movie before "Nightmare" was Halloween. I actually wasn't going to watch it until Jamie Lee Curtis got scared, she has to be Hollywood's worst screamer of all time! Then the William Shatner mask was hilarious. When Jason started taking victims though is when my laughing stopped.
Another oldie worth mentioning was The Blob, the 1958 cult classic that Steve McQueen hated! That was his only horror movie, but I think it's great fun.

I don't watch horror movies. I can't think of why I would want to be scared.

Saw is good but the most gross out movie I've ever seen is a movie called "The Human Centipede" look it up on the internet (its exactly what it says)

My favorite horror movie has to be "IT" about a clown that lives in the sewers and takes kids. Probably watched it when i was around ten and have watched it every Halloween since then.

I'm a fan of anything that includes Zombies, so I prefer "George A. Romero"'s work over anything in this genre of movies!

-Day Of The Dead
-Dawn Of The Dead
-Land Of The Dead

To name a few...

Go George! *throws fist in the air*

YES! I saw that movie.. It was the most bizzare out there movie ever. I heard there is going to be another one with a sixteen person centipede or something???
My favorite scary movies would have to be The evil dead trilogy with Bruce Cambell. Love that guy! =]

Tonight I'm watching a 2009 movie, produced by Steven Seagal called Against The Dark, for the second time. The scene where one of the infected is standing in front of the mirror whilst sharpening it's teeth still creeps me out.

I truly enjoy Johnny Depp's version of Icabod Crane in Sleepy Hollow but I still hold fast to my number one and two selections, Jeepers Creepers and Jeepers Creepers II. I can't wait until next year when Jeepers (Threepers) Creepers hits the big screen! I hope it'll be on IMax?

I love Paranormal Activity. I wish I could see the second one but I don't have the money. Movie theaters are so expensive nowadays.
