All Time Scaries

> So here's my point.  What's your scariest moment? (in film)

My mom and I were watching "Psycho" on TV late at night. We'd already 
gotten through the shower scene and were sufficiently creeped out 
when we heard breaking glass in the house! We ran to the kitchen and 
got out big long carving knives and started hunting everywhere for 
the intruder! Talk about interactive TV! (Well, it turned out that 
the pane of glass in the light over the cooking range that was 
cracked already had finally cooled too quickly once too often and had 
broken through and fallen out of its fixture. Huge relief at the 
time, huge anticlimax now.)

The first time I saw "Jurassic Park" on the big screen: the suspense 
during the scene in the kitchen where the dinosaurs are stalking the 
kids was so intense, I nearly had to leave the theatre. Usually I'm 
OK with strong suspense, but for some reason that really got to me.

Ms. Tattersall,
who has not seen JPII or III and probably won't!
