10. The Descent
I was watching it with a hot chick once and she was bawling her eyes out the whole time… Worked well for me though… I ended up “comforting” her all night 😉
9. Nightmare On Elm Street
I was a kid when I saw this. It freaked me out because Freddy looked like one of my neighbours…
8. Child’s Play
I saw this movie and I became terrified of dolls… I still am… Their creepy little eyes freak me out.
7. Halloween
I never found this scary, the cheesy 80’s effects were hilarious. Watching it now, it seems more like a comedy.
6. I Know What You Did Last Summer
My grandfather had an ice pick… I spent my youth thinking maybe he was the killer!!!  
5. Scream
I had an ex-girlfriend who I guess was inspired by the movie… When I broke up with her she called me endlessly with a voice changer saying she was gunna kill me… We don’t talk anymore 😉 Although she did end up being a hostess at a restaurant I walked in to… Ahhhh!!!
4. Saw
This movie was just so realistic looking. Still freaks me out.
3. Exorcist
It freaked me out because I’m not religious… SO… If I was ever possessed I’d be shit out of luck… No priest would go out of their way to save me… 😉
2. Jennifer’s Body
Horrible movie… But the girl on girl action made it barable.
1. Jaws
I am obsessed with this movie. I still to this day probably watch it twice a month. I love sharks. I just think they are so rad.

“He Walks By Night” – Listen to a Brand New John Carpenter Song NOW!

John Carpenter music

It’s a new day, and you’ve got new John Carpenter to listen to. John Carpenter, Daniel Davies and Cody Carpenter have released the new track He Walks By Night this morning, the second single off their upcoming album Lost Themes IV: Noir, out May 3 on Sacred Bones Records.

Lost Themes IV: Noir is the latest installment in a series that sees Carpenter releasing new music for John Carpenter movies that don’t actually exist. The first Lost Themes was released in 2015, followed by Lost Themes II in 2016 and Lost Themes III: Alive After Death in 2021.

Sacred Bones previews, “It’s been a decade since John Carpenter recorded the material that would become Lost Themes, his debut album of non-film music and the opening salvo in one of Hollywood’s great second acts. Those vibrant, synth-driven songs, made in collaboration with his son Cody Carpenter and godson Daniel Davies, kickstarted a musical renaissance for the pioneering composer and director. With Lost Themes IV: Noir, they’ve struck gold again, this time mining the rich history of the film noir genre for inspiration.

“Since the first Lost Themes, John has referred to these compositions as “soundtracks for the movies in your mind.” On the fourth installment in the series, those movies are noirs. Like the film genre they were influenced by, what makes these songs “noirish” is sometimes slippery and hard to define, and not merely reducible to a collection of tropes. The scores for the great American noir pictures were largely orchestral, while the Carpenters and Davies work off a sturdy synth-and-guitar backbone.

“The trio’s free-flowing chemistry means Lost Themes IV: Noir runs like a well-oiled machine—the 1951 Jaguar XK120 Roadster from Kiss Me Deadly, perhaps, or the 1958 Plymouth Fury from John’s own Christine. It’s a chemistry that’s helped power one of the most productive stretches of John’s creative life, and Noir proves that it’s nowhere near done yielding brilliant results.”
