    I really need to introduce my girlfriend to Ring and other Japanese horror movies :D

    It wasn't one everyone liked, but I thought Dark Water was good :)

    (Love that film!)

    One of my all-time favourites.

    *I'm aware that dreamcatchers are up there with angel statues and crystal balls, but we were desperate even for a placebo effect at that stage.

    Ooh! We might make one of those later. Thanks for the idea. I had one when I was a teenager, it was just a lovely pretty thing that hung in my window.

    Have you seen A Tale of Two Sisters? That nearly gave me a heartattack! :eek:

    Yep. It didn't stick with me as much though I remember enjoying it.

    Old Boy is pretty scary in its own way. :eek:

    Poor James. The dreamcatcher sounds like a good idea, especially if he makes his own one and can add whatever he wants to it.

    But one of these days, I gotta ratchet it up a notch and show herself Ichi The Killer :pac:

    Jaysus, Ichi the Killer was a mental film. Totally brilliant but mental. Lady Vengeance was also great though not sure if I got the title right?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,772 ✭✭✭✭Whispered


    The Ring scared the absolute crap out of me. And not the original one either. I made my OH sit in the bathroom with me while I showered for about 2 months after seeing it. :o

    Even now when I'm washing my hair and have my eyes shut I have this irrational fear that when I open my eyes *SHE* will be standing there.

    So I don't think I could cope with watching anything more scary!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,944 ✭✭✭✭Links234


    Lady Vengeance was also great though not sure if I got the title right?

    Yep, same guy who made Oldboy, and a great film too! ;)

    If anyone else wants to see a really, really good Korean movie, then watch I Saw The Devil!



    It's amazing, I can't tell you just how good it is!

    I was scared ****less after the episode of The Simpsons with Bart and his evil twin. The attic door was outside my room and I was convinced there was someone up there.

    It seems that you're a different level of "horror watcher". I'm a hide behind the cushion and berate myself for even thinking to put it on type watcher and you actually enjoy them. We're worlds apart :D

    What is your scariest film moment EVER.

    Ok honestly, I'm on the "She was wearing dirty pink pyjamas" part. Should I go on?

    I'm in the house alone and was terrified of the Ring film. Also have to hoover the stairs which is scary because I wouldn't hear if anyone sneaked up behind me.

    Should I just stop now? :o

    Also, nothing moves on the screen does it? And there is nothing like "do this 5 times or you'll die" at the end?

    /Wuss

    Oh I am actually scared really, REALLY easily, and I'm squeamish as hell too! Like it's not even funny, I'm freaked the hell out at the sight of blood in real life. I don't know, I just get a kick out of being scared. :p

    Apparently being frightened is very close to being horny. I think I read somewhere that the part of your brain which processes scary or violent things, is also the part that controls sexual urges. :D

    well, that's just odd :confused: but I guess one way or another it gets the blood pumping?

    so I did something kinda weird. I let the facial hair I've got grow out a little bit to see what it actually looks like. I'm supposed to let it grow for electrolysis anyway for like a day or two beforehand, and then I can't get rid of it for 2 days after, but this time I think I've actually gone a week. for science! :pac: so I kinda got something like granny whiskers, you can't even see them unless you look really close, 'cos they almost look kinda transparent or white even. so very strange.

    fingers crossed they'll be completely gone soon enough anyway :p

    I've probably got more facial hair than that at the moment. Every once in a while I wax it, you cant see it because its transparent, but when I have makeup and a bit of powder on my face it really shows them up.

    I'm dedicated to getting it all permanently removed. since like 3 years ago I've blasted it with laser, then started getting electrolysis to clear up whatever's left. there's probably not too much left yet, but it's slow and tedious getting it done, 'cos they zap every hair individually and I can't stand it for more than an hour at a time I find it so painful :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,698 ✭✭✭✭Princess Peach


    The day needs to end sooner. Came close to a panic attack there cause I couldn't get my desk drawer to open. What is wrong with me!

    I did get it open, and got the vanilla chamomile tea out! Might calm me down.

    I got laser done, it cost me €800, didn't work. :(

    I'm going to be one of those grannies with a full beard.

    PP have you been under loads of stress lately? Have you suffered panic attacks in the past?

    There is nothing wrong with you! Thinking that there is is going to set of the panic attacks. Usually there is something in your life that is stressing you out at the moment so think about that.

    Also maybe go to counselling. It helps for me. (feel free to PM me. I hate having the panic attacks)

    In other news. DAMN PERIOD CRAMPS:mad:

    The fuppers with the drums are back. :mad:

    Hopefully this won't be an all night session...

    (They had a party the weekend we were away, the drums in the garden didn't finish til 8am)

    And apparently French neighbour nuisance laws are about as useful as Irish ones.

    laser worked for me up to a point, then I had to start electrolysis. A friend of mine recommended this lady in Galway who is really amazing. the thing about laser is, it only works on certain hair types, but electrolysis works for all types.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,772 ✭✭✭✭Whispered


    I was warned it might not work on hormonal hair. I'm not sure if electrolysis is the same? My best bet would be the doctor but I don't want to go back on the pill and she prescribed some cream that made me break out in boils. It's a difficult thing for me to deal with and I am very aware that I don't have it as bad as others!

    Pretty sure electrolysis would work, I know people with PCOS who've got it done, as well as someone who had a bad reaction to medication she was on. You might want to look into it.

    I am dying from exercise overdose. My poor body wonders how it got away with it for 27 years only for me to beat the crap out of it now. Everything hurts!

    I'll be hilarious in the pub tonight, need to pick a seat and stay there!

    You'll have a blast. One drink and you'll be grinning like the village idiot and loving everyone. Alcohol is great when you're getting fit.

    I'm thinking of getting Insanity. It looks frightening.
