Everybody remembers their first time. Never their second or their third, always their first. You remember the feeling you had in the beginning, middle and end. You remember the thoughts running through your head. "What's this going to be like? Am I going to cry? Am I going to want to do it again?" Of course I'm talking about my first horror movie.... you sickos! ; ] For me, my first "horror" movie was Beetlejuice, some may say it's not really horror but it still has that horror style and vibe to it. After all it is about dead people. What is it about horror movies that draw you in and make you thirst for more? Is it the sense of originality? The darkness of the movie? The sick and twisted feeling you get while watching the movie. For me I love the sick and twisted feeling you get when you watch a good horror movie. I say good because there are a lot of horror movies out there but only the good ones give you that special feeling. Sure you can get that sick and twisted feeling in a not so great horror but that feeling isn't always enough for you to want to continue to watch horror movies.
A good horror movie leaves you with the feeling of "What the Hell just happened?!" And I just love that feeling, I love feeling disturbed and weirded out and I love the dark and morbidness of the whole thing which is why I continue to get drawn back into the House of Horror. With Beetlejuice being my first horror movie, growing up I remember watching Poltergeist, Stephen King's IT, turning on the t.v. to see Chucky on the screen, then running off crying my eyes out cause that little bastard scares the shit out of me. But the movie that really got me morbidly obsessed with horror movies is none other then Freddy Vs. Jason. The two main men in my life on one big screen, that makes this little Scream Queen smile. After watching this movie it's no surprise why it spawned my love for horror movies. Freddy Vs. Jason has everything that a good horror movie must have and then some. A lot of people might say that this movie wasn't that great but I strongly disagree and think this movie is bad ass. This movie was also the reason why I went on my Nightmare on Elm Street spree and watched all the movies and fell in love.
With most people in the horror community and world they saw all the NOES movies growing up but for me I didn't get to see them till I was 15. Growing up in a Mormon family in Utah I wasn't aloud to watch those type of movies because they were all rated R. After I saw Freddy Vs. Jason with my cousin we rented all the NOES movies from Blockbuster and we watched all of them at her house so my parents wouldn't know, yeah I know I'm a rebel. Because of my "living situation" I did have a different horror experience but a horror experience none the less. The reason for this post is that we all had our own horror experience which led to our ultimate horror obsession. A experience we'll never forget. What was YOUR first? ; ]
