When I say my mood's on horror stories. I meant the horror movies and the effect it gives to me. This is not some spooky entry, it is just me giving hints on my scaredy, delusional, shameful self.
When it comes to watching horror movies, I am truly game especially when watching in movie houses with friends. Though, I tell you I am not really that enjoyable to be company with because I do not scream or shout when surprisingly terrifying scenes come popping on the screen. Quoting myself, "I am not expressive." At first I thought it was cool because it just proves me mighty unlike any others. People often gets the impression that when one does not scream, that directly implies one is not afraid when in fact, I think I am actually more afraid than those screaming. Then it turns out that my horror story dilemmas do not appear during screening time but rather the moment when the screen turns blank.
However, some horror movies do not have much great effect on me. Some just give me slight second skips of the heart, and some for just hours and then I can comfortably go to sleep. I had seen Ladda Land with friends and just hours after, I had survived sleeping in my room alone. I also had watched The Woman in Black, The Sinister, Amorosa, The Healing, The Exorcist, The Eye, Mama etc and they have pretty much just have slight effects.
As far as I can remember, there were 4 horror movies that had made a mark and had led me to delusions. Trauma, is it? Haha. Anyways, here is my list:
1. SHAKE, RATTLE AND ROLL X- "CLASS PICTURE"
This episode only though. I know it is Filipino. But after watching this movie in the movie theater with my highschool friends, I was suffering for some delusions at about a month or so. Every night, I get afraid coming out of our room alone. Much more, I had a routine of peeing every night (or dawn) at around 12:00 -3:00 am, but after seeing this, I always had to control my bladder because then I would be reminded of Sister Bellonia hunting for students to be killed and punished and included in this certain class picture. But when I could not control it anymore , I remember always running fast to return at a split second. That was second year though and I believe I am over it. :)
2. THE EXORCISM OF EMILY ROSE
So this one, I have not yet finished. I attempted so many times but to no luck, I just always end up in the acrobatics in the church scene because I was too afraid to continue. I suffered months too. Give me real chills. Just too believable. Too afraid to continue.
3.JEEPERS CREEPERS 1 AND 2 (this counts two)
Summer of 2010 when I watched both parts 1 and 2. It actually isn't that believable but I don't know why I had become very delusional after watching this. Maybe because, they say this jeeper creeper can not die? Or its creepy, repeating, ear-ringing theme song? Or that underground place filled with body parts? Or the fact that it won't stop chasing if he's after you? Or that it also appears in the day? And for how long I freaked out on this? Well, the entire summer. And how it did me? I became too watchful of the sky, it might go flying around. I even felt so much protective of my family, I do not let them go out at night even on our house garden. And when we sleep, curtains should drape down covering the window glass. I also piled large throw pillows to cover this small glass window and I see to it I'd be nearest the windows just in case the jeeper creeper came. Pathetic me. That was 3 years ago though and I am over it. FINALLY.
Now you can laugh at me!
