I made a mistake the other night. Havent watched any scary movies for years while HAPPENed to pick up one at a quiet midnight. Grrrrrrr.....God knows how hard I finally managed to fall asleep that night.

"House Of Wax": A typical American scary movie. An isolated town, a group of innocent and curious teenagers, a weird story of certain family that leads to two horrible killers who wax people's body. The director even gives the audience with magnifying scene when the blood is dropping. Really disgusting...

Anyways its good in some details design and the whole structure is tight, besides your earphone is not supposed to full of scream, which more or less makes me belive its worthy my time at some sense.

I love scary movies. Watched House of Wax, find it boring and predictable, didn't even blink my eyes when one of the sickos cut the finger of the female charater (what's her name?) Sad to know hardly any scary movies can scare the sh*t of me now. Maybe I should just watch the tale of two sisters again....

hi,lemongrass, how about "lord of the rings" this movie? I have watched all of this during these days, but it is not so scary, I hope I can watch some real scary movie after days. I like scary & comedy movies, hence I will purchase it as many as I can. PS, most Europeans they never speak "hence" this word in their lives, at least, I have checked it from all of their forums here.

You mean "The Ring" right nathalie? The original Japanese version is pretty scary. Its not the sort of scary that makes you jump through the film but even now I still get chills when I'm watching a movie and the phone rings. (I haven't seen the American version though I've heard its not too bad either)

The Ring is a good scary film. I haven't watched the American remake, as I hate the way Hollywood remakes, rather than redistributes, movies made in any language other than English (Vanilla Skies/Abre Los Ojos being a good case in point)
Saw Boogeyman the other night which failed on so many levels it's just not true.
Ju On, on the other hand, was full of chills

I think perhaps that the japanese have cornered the market in Horror.
(Although I thought Blair Witch was an excellent scare)

didn't even blink my eyes when one of the sickos cut the finger of the female charater

This is the most gross part in this movie to me, plus she splited her lips later....Oh no I dont want to recall the details. But actually "house of wax" gets me feel more disgusting than indeed scary. Too many blood thing all over the human body. Did you ever watch "Sleepy Hollow" played by Johnny Depp, littefox? A masterpiece of scary film I have watched so far. Shouldnt miss it if you have time!

Nat "The lord of the rings" didnt impress me so much. Though I think Orlando Bloom is quite cool with his bow among all other actors. Guess I would rather watch Harry Potter than lord of ring for a second time, the previous one is way more entertaining. Yes I dont see people use "hence" very often nowadays, so maybe thats a exception apart from most Europeans , it doesnt matter anyways.

"PS, most Europeans they never speak "hence" this word in their lives"

Ah ah! I know where that one comes from! Fembots are flying low these days!

We all know! She was doubting some truth.

Australians still use 'hence" alot. But we're not European hence my point is moot.

didn't really hear "hence" this word from most of my australian friends, hence I wonder that maybe some europeans or australians they do not really speak it here.

You have to remember that Australian has three distinct accents - Broad (country/okka), General, and Cultivated(posh), 'Hence' is used by the more posh Aussies. (being from Melbourne my accent's somewhere between General and Posh)

Anyway maybe someone should bring this discussion back on topic.

Posh Aussies speak "hence" this word ? ok, I understand. thanks for your posh explanation, Kuldaen.

Nathalie, "posh" is the name of one of the Austrian aboriginal tribes, some kind of black Indians who lived there before the British Empire started to send their most dangerous convicts there. Obviously Kuldaen, being a posh Australian, is a short black man with natural dreadlocks and large feet (think Bilbo the Hobbit). Just in case you misunderstood.

I know that frenchlover1999 is also one of those australian posh black men, so frenchlover1999 knows it very well. By the way, I am very happy to know that frenchlover1999 is a real knowledgeable man, at least, he likes talking about posh autralians in this talking board .
