Mine would be about killer cars or possessed cars! I like cars so lol I reckon that Christine would have to be my favourite movie though

I like older 1950's/1960's B&W horror movies, though I don't particularly like modern horror movies. I also love British television programming.

"or possessed cars"

Not a movie, but an especially bad TV show "My Mother the Car". Horribly bad... The guy's mother possessed a car. Smile

I haven't seen any horror pictures for a long, long time. Nightmare on Elm Street and the Texas Chainsaw Massacre were popular at the time. Whilst probably not regarded as horror though equally gut-churning, there was also The Towering Inferno and the Australian workplace safety video Hospitals Don't Burn Down, filmed at Royal Newcastle Hospital, which had a scene similar to the start of the climax in The Towering Inferno - a lift stopping at a floor where the fire was, incinerating its passengers. To my knowledge there has never been an upgrade to the SAA Lift Code to prevent lifts stopping at floors where fire alarms have been activated. One would think this would be a fantastic safety improvement.

I like the Friday the 13th films.... Bad at times but entertaining.
