Pet Cemetary was scarey!

and The Thing That Wouldn't Die..I saw that when I was about 7 years old on tv and it scared the crap outta me then!

I saw a movie on Tv in early 1978 about a woman who could turn into a GIANT black widow spider..it was pretty cool! And scarey! Anyone here ever seen it?



The last one sounds familiar, Beardguy.


I remember even some of the TV movies in the 70's were really scary. The first Kolchak movie, The Night Stalker(1971), where he chases a vampire, and when Kolchak's wandering around the vampire's boarded-up house with a flashlight, he opens the refrigerator to find the vampire keeps blood plasm from a blood bank he burglarized in the refrigerator.
And equally scary if not more so The Night Strangler(1972), about a strangler who kills six women every 21 years for a century and a half.

The series after was never as creepy to me as these two movies. Maybe because I was older when they did the Kolchak TV series, in 1975-1976.


There was a 1974-1975 TV show called Circle of Fear that was very frightening also. I'd love to see it again as an adult.


And I remember a tv commercial around 1971-1972 for a TV movie called The Screaming Woman that looked terifying. I never saw the movie, the commercial alone scared me !


When I was 5 years old, I remember the first episode of Star Trek I saw was "The Man Trap" with the monster that pretends to be people you know, until it gets its paws wrapped around you and kills you by sucking all the salt out of your body. Initially, I wasn't much of a Star Trek fan after that. And slept with the lights on that night.
