Im not a person who likes to watch horror flicks. You shoulda seen me when I went to see Darkness Falls with a few friends. I was whimpering the entire movie.
Probably this was started by when I was young. I saw this horror flick, The Dentist, when I was just a little kid. It freaked me out so much that I have to make the dentist put a mirror aimed at my mouth as he works, so I can see what he is doing.
When I know the scary part is coming up, change the channel, then change back 30 seconds later.
