Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

There's many interesting ones, but scary? Nah.

I can only think of 4 off the top of my head:

Night of the Living Dead
Night of the Demon
Freaks
Psycho


Any more?

That video tape from the ring

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

Psycho.

Edit: Did you just add Psycho to that list?

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

Freaks.

Weirdest. Movie. Ever.

I remember watching a black and white with my grandpa when I was a little kid, of a dracula like character, with bug eyes and claws. Scared me back then.

Oh, for Christ's sake, this discussion open and closes with one word - Eraserhead.

In heaven, everything is fine....

Creeps me out fifteen years later.

Pi was pretty freaky );

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

Un Chien Andalou

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

Funniest black and white movie sence Shindler's list.

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

I love black & white, even just for ordinary non-scary dramas. "Good Night, and Good Luck" and "The Man Who Wasn't There" are two good recent examples of beautiful-looking films. Especially the Coen bros. film, which is among their best ever.

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

Um clearly Clerks is the best B & W movie.

I havent been scared by a B & W but the closest has to be Psycho.

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

White men can't jump? Oh wait.

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

haha, I was gonna say jungle fever... but yeahhh.

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

Of course! The video for 'Ebony and Ivory'!

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

Night of the Hunter....not scary per se, but insanely creepy

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

Once you have seen it, it is impossible not to think of Repulsion at least once every day of your life thereafter.

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

Jeez, there's so many, and I've seen em all, and they didn't occur to me...

I'd add 'cape fear' for the scene with Mitchum alone with that young girl...

Amazing.....that's the one movie that popped immediately into my head. I saw it hungover and alone in my living room in 1985, I'm still freaked out by it.

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

Me and a friend who'd seen it before took another guy without telling him, and got him stoned first.

I swear, the confused, mortified look on his face lasted for hours after the film ended.

hehehe

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

Un chien andalou (1929) (An Andalusian Dog) - writer Salvador Dali and director Luis Buñuel (of Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie and Belle de Jour) do a 16min short where they show an eyeball getting cut.

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

Depends. Abbot and Costello Meet Frankenstein freaked me out when I was five or six, along with The Fly (1958). But, I doubt they'd do it today.

Anyway, two good B&W horror films: The Haunting (the original) based on The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson and Carnival of Souls. And a creepy Western: El Topo.

Another one that was a little freaky was Young White Sluts Who Love Big Black Cocks #72.

Re: Ever seen a black and white film that scared/freaked you?
 

Nosferatu. Every kid I know who saw that got freaked out.
