Biggest movie shock you've had?

[Soulassassin]

Was talking to a mate today and he was telling me he was watching poltergeist 3 the other night and still found it quite scary. Conversation went on to what the biggest shock you have ever had in a film was.

Mine is definately the scene in Jaws where the head pops out from the wrecked boat underwater, I was only about 8 when I seen it and its prolly shite now but I still remember nearly caking me trolleys.

So come on then, whats ya biggest fright, however long ago.

Mines was childs play 1 when chucky hit your women in the eye with a hammer and she fell out the window. After the film I needed a piss and the toilet was up on the 3rd floor and no one would go up with me so I stood holding onto the door and I pissed myself. Mind you I was only 10 at the time. That was 17 years ago and I still remember to this. The fucking wee bastard doll

[Freaky]

jesus i started reading this and the jaws scene popped into my head, then saw you said it aswell, i was only a kid at the time and saw it on the pics and fuckin SHIT MYSELF big time.

oh and off topic i cried like a baby watching the champ as a kid aswell ahhhhhhhhh

[inspectercoley]

I liked it in From Dusk Till Dawn where they all turned into vampires... not that scary but didn't expect the film to go in that direction at all.

BBK and I was discussing this a while ago and we started watching movies that scared me as a kid. Jaws was one of the first ones we watched. It still had the drama and the suspense even as an adult. we watch Jaws 2, not go round to watching the others yet. We watched all the poltergeist films. they were not as scary as i remember but that bloody clown........
I also watched the Alien films and remember being absolutely terrified. They dont make films like that any more.
I remember as a kid watching the Day Of the Triffids. My older brother told me that it could happen and because of this for years and i mean for years i believed this and would never go near plants that even resembled the triffids. still terrify me lol

I thought I'd grown out of scary films cos I watch all the ones that have been coming out for the past decade and they don't scare me at all. But then I watch all the ones from before I was born or the early 90's and they scare the fuck of me still!

Can't think of the most shocked I've ever been. I remember as a kid being shit scared of Death Becomes Her when Goldie Hawn gets shot in the stomach and has a huge hole. And also when the bad guy gets run over by the steam roller in Roger Rabbit.

[B.I.G.]

The ends of Friday the 13th and Carrie are classic shit your pants moments.

Got to agree with the jaws comments as well.
I watched the strangers for the first time the other day and thats got a decent old school shock at the end.

[Mr.James]

Pet Sematary when the little kid cuts through that guy's achillies heel tendon with a scalpel... Dunno why it freaked me out then and still does now lol

[muttleymacclad]

Jaws, definitely with the head.

Deliverance - "squeal like a pig boy" !

But the biggest movie shock - come on, no.1...The Crying Game has to be up there surely.

Sorry but the Exorcist did it for me, i watched it aged 10 and let me tell you that i never slept for a week. That film even today sends shivers down my spine.

I liked it in From Dusk Till Dawn where they all turned into vampires... not that scary but didn't expect the film to go in that direction at all.

I was thinking that when I read the title, obviously not a shock as in scary, but definatly one of the top twists in a film. Totally unexpected and quite frankly brilliant.

[funkyg]

Big shock (surprise not scary) was in Pulp Fiction when Bruce Willis walked in on Marsellus getting fucked up the arse. Didn't see that one coming!
Was rewatching Alien and Aliens the other night, and the face huggers still make me jump.

[miffy]

couple for me when i was younger than 10 years old

IT the clown - 1 bit scared me so much i jumped up ran off screaming straight into the door. still not watched it to this day

Brain Dead - When the old woman rips the nurses head off shit my pants. not watched the full film still.

American Werewolf in london - first bit where people are getting killed in the dark, i started crying. not watched all that either.

most recently though biggest shock for me was Oldboy. the twist at the end totally hit me by surprise

[Soulassassin]

American Werewolf in London, theres another classic that I watched as a young un. Never watched that one since either.
@ Freaky...Oy! leave 'The Champ' out of this, its not a 'what movie made you cry like a girl' thread.

[funkyg]

Forgot about American Werewolf in London. Loved that film.
There is one bit in it that freaked me out, and it's not even that scary. The bit where his bed is in the forest and he wakes up with wolf eyes. Made me jump a foot in the air the first time I was it. Not that scary but gave me a few disturbed nights after watching it.

[Fear345]

I was shocked how bad District 9 was after all the hype if that counts.

[zaster79]

This - YouTube - John Carpenter's The Thing - Runaway Alien Head

I must have been about 12 when I watched it, didn't sleep for weeks.

Even now, I shudder.

[Zizou]

Bumping into my dad and his 'friend' Howard at the Odeon in Leeds when he was supposed to be on the afternoon shift. Priscilla Queen of the Desert was on the main screen but he claims to this day he was there to see Pulp Fiction.

[cronus71]

Several scenes in The Others, and of course the ending.

As to From Dusk Till Dawn I found the change to a vampire flick extremely disappointing, up until then the movies was brilliant.

juno, i was shocked that i enjoyed it

as for propper shocks it'll have to be IT I saw it when i was about 10 and it propper freaked me out, ive never been the biggest clown fan but one with sharp teeth that kills kids seemed scary as shite, ive seen it since and really enjoyed it i dont know why I was so scared of it lol
