I was basically in the same boat with my girlfriend, who is easily scared.
After a lot of back-and-forth I got her to watch 'Paranormal Activity' and 'The Ring' with me.
She hasn't watched a single horror movie since then and I can now tell you the plot of 'Bridget Jones Diary'. So tread...
Since they are taking 'Pet Semetary' off Netflix in October I decided to watch it for the first time in a very long time.
The biggest takeaway I have from this movie now is that the mom and dad are perhaps the two worst parents in television history.
If you ignore all of the unfair hype surrounding "It Follows" then you will really enjoy the movie. Just don't allow yourself to get sucked into all of the "best horror movie in years" talk that was going on earlier in 2015.
Not really a horror movie, but has anyone seen the movie "The Guest"...
For anyone interested there's already a seller pre-selling Pamela & young Jason on eBay. They look to be a very reputable seller who's done this type of pre-selling from the SDCC before. I don't know if that's a fair price or not. lol
Personally I'm going to wait until sellers have them in...
