Scarey movies

Blog Prompt: August 13 is Alfred Hitchcock’s birthday. In honor of his birthday, name the movie(s) that scare you the most.

I really don't like horror movies & have never watched a Hitchcock movie.

A movie that has had a profound affect on me was The Fly. OMG watching that man turn into a fly just was too yucky for words & ever since I have a real aversion to flies.

I seem to have a problem with nature in it's horrorific form because Jaws freaked me out of the water for quite sometime. Even now when I go swimming in the sea I have a huge mental obstacle to overcome. The problem is, it is not so unheard of for a great white to chomp at people surfing or diving off New Zealand's coast. There are great whites around our coastline, because of the seal populations especially, so it is always a possibility that there is one lurking in the water.

Jaws gives me the creeps too. Hubby and I was swimming in the ocean (of course we were IN love!) and not paying attention. We got out too far and realized no one else was in the water and the lifeguard was frantically waving at us. Then realized there were sharks circling us on this little float. We swam to shore and nothing got us, thank goodness!

Yep, those kind of movies are pretty icky. Jaws definitely makes one think twice about going in the ocean :)
