    It must be me getting softer as I get older

    I used to watch Nightmare on Elmstreet, Hellraiser and other horrors when i was a teenager and I would really enjoy them......................now I can barely watch anything that is slightly unpleasant, I have to leave the room when any torture scenes are on 24 and OH has to tell me when its over:o

    Dont know when I became such a wuss:rolleyes:

    I can, however sit and watch medical things no problem, I love to watch a good open heart surgery or liver transplant any day of the week:D
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    I've seen one of those Saw things - think it was the first one and it was horrible and scary, never felt the urge to watch anymore. I'm rubbish with scary especially when DS is away and it's only me here!

    Unfortunately I find the "torture !!!!!!" things just to be unpleasant.

    Give me a good story any time.

    The early Omens were good in that regard - though having world-class actors didn't hurt...

    I went to see Hide and Seek a couple of years ago at the cinema I think it was Robert De Niro (or someone equally famous) and totally embarrassed myself and ex by jumping out of my seat at one point. I am soooo rubbish!
