A middle aged dude. Now maybe if I was some hot college girl hiking through the woods by myself then I might reverse the story lol. Either way Jaws scared the living daylights out of me. I hate going into the ocean or even fresh water sometimes because of Bull Sharks. I've never worried about wondering into the woods. That's just my fear.

You should be more afraid of bull sharks and tiger sharks or box-jellyfish than a great white unless you plan on going out to sea just for a swim. If somebody said would you rather get into a tank with a great white or a crocodile, you'd be safer with the shark unless you're bleeding. I guess the ludicrous part of Jaws is how big the shark is and then how close it comes to shore. Good movie still, but like all horror films it has an element of unreal. I'm afraid to go into the ocean because of box-jellyfish and squid, which is weird since I don't think either of those could get to me on the coast of Texas. I find though that every creature that scares me as a predator is also something I find very cool and admirable for their evolutionary prowess as killing machines.

Don't know if anybody's said it yet, but The Hills Have Eyes was a great horror classic. We've talked about some classic and great horror films here. Now let's talk about the crappiest, almost so bad they're good type films. You've got yer Trolls 2 "they're eating her, and then they're gonna eat me, ohh my gawwwd!", Maximum Overdrive on concept alone, Shocker, was this even supposed to be a horror?! Manos the hands of awful, Squirm was funny-bad, Devil Fish was supposed to be horror but comes off as soft-core porn, Touch of Satan, every Syfy original ever (way to ruin the Wrong Turn franchise).
