Michael, I'm still scared of Bigfoot all because of The Legend of Boggy Creek. Well, and because when I was a kid I watched every Bigfoot movie and read every Bigfoot book I could find. But The Legend of Boggy Creek was the scariest. I also noticed this on Amazon the other day: http://www.amazon.com/Boggy-Creek-Legend-Melissa-Carnell/dp/B0055CP9VS/ref=sr_1_1?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1318600596&sr=1-1

I'm one of the few that thinks The Blair Witch Project is possibly the scariest movie ever--for some reason, it pushed my buttons and scared the bejeebus out of me. Paranormal Activity also had its effective moments. The "found footage" genre is a guilty pleasure for me. As for older films, some of my favorite scary movies would include (in no particular order): The Haunting (1963) Psycho The Wolf Man (1941) Nosferatu (both Murnau and Herzog versions) An American Werewolf in London Alien The Uninvited (1944) Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956) The Fly (1986) The Wicker Man (1973) Night of the Living Dead (1968) The Changeling (1980) And in the guilty pleasure category: The Legend of Boggy Creek Plan 9 from Outer Space The Tingler Michael Logan Acquisitions and Technical Services Humboldt County Library (707) 269-1962 ________________________________ From: [email protected] [[email protected]] on behalf of Ball, James (jmb4aw) [[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, October 13, 2011 1:13 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Videolib] Friday fun question, early... Hi All, Here's a Friday fun question (but with a bit of a head start): what are your favorite scary movies? Gary, you probably have a videography, don't you? Broken down by genre, country of origin, director... :) Cheers, Matt ______________________________ Matt Ball Media Services Librarian University of Virginia [email protected]<https://mail.eservices.virginia.edu/owa/redir.aspx?C=f9bb9e66e0cb45eb9c98da126198ad7e&URL=mailto%3amattball%40virginia.edu> 434-924-3812
VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
