A place for horror fans to discuss and share news about current, classic, and upcoming horror movies!
(TV shows and any other sort of audio-visual horror media are acceptable as well!)
SERIOUS PART: Debate and personal opinions are allowed. Bigotry, trolling, and discrimination toward others are not.

Kathy Bates in Misery, as she ramps up the crazy I get chills every time
Robert Shaw and Roy Scheider in Jaws, Shaw with the 'Ahab captain' and Roy with the 'it's not paranoia if there's a real monster out there' sheriff.
Oliver Platt in lake placid, goofy and scared and the scene with him in the water is great
Theater of blood/house on haunted hill super campy Vincent Price, he did some radio shows too just hearing him do his creepy voice is always fun, but those two he's very over the top & melodramatic.
Movie scene was more brutal with the sledgehammer. She cuts his foot off at the ankle with an axe in the book.
