And why?
In my opinion, Horror films are the best, because when you're watching a film like these, it a great sensation, and it's something that calls our atention!
the gratest film/or one of them... I have ever seen was The Exorcist...the film is very very cool...but at the same time it's very scared...

RE: Films

I'd never guess you were a fan of horror movies lol I saw "The Exorcist" (the original one; is that the one you saw?) when I was about your age and I thought it was really scary. I wouldn't feel comfortable walking in the dark for a couple of weeks. Of course we weren't as used to horror movies/stories as teenagers today :-)

HUM...
I am completely fan of horror films!
The film I was talking about...was the last one, and it calls "Exorcist: The Beginning", and it was filmed in 2004. I'm not sure if it is the original film.
But the film is really, really scary.. then I forget it.. and I'm ready to watch again.. lol :-)

That is a new film. The original one was released in 1973 and it was really scary, at least for the standards then. Here's an excerpt from a user comment/review:

In late 1973 and early 1974, women and men were lined up for blocks. People were known to become ill watching it. Some fainted. Some ran out of the theater in tears. There were reports of people having to be institutionalized, and at least one miscarriage was attributed to viewing it. No, it wasn't a Rolling Stones Concert. It was a film called The Exorcist.

I don't know if today's teens will find it scary at all, growing up with Fred Krueger, Friday the 13th and the likes. But "The Exorcist" is much more than a horror movie. Beneath the scary "surface" of the movie there's a lot of substance and philosophical questions, personal conflicts, etc. It's a great movie that happens to be also a horror movie.
