Top Ten Willy Inducing Moments

Andre Dumas, she of the fabulous Horror Digest , recently posted her Top 10 Willy Inducing Moments - scenes from films that just made you shiver or gave you THE WILLIES (get it?)   Well, now the damn thing's gone viral and has infected this very blog.

So, without further ado,  I present my Top 10:

1: Regan MacNeil's Bloody Spinal Tap from The Exorcist:

Masturbating with a crucifix, puking up pea soup and spider walking down the stairs all pale in comparison to the spinal tap scene from The Exorcist.  The cold, clinical doctors; the noisy machines; the flashing x rays ... for some reason, this scene makes my blood run cold. 

2: That effin Homeless Person/ Monster from Mulholland Drive:

Meet the freaky deaky beastie who lives near the dumpster behind Winkie's diner on Sunset Blvd.  He/She/It causes nightmares, heart attacks and releases pint size-senior citizen-demons from paper bags.

3: The Wailing Wall from The Haunting:

Good god, this has got to be one of the most eerie bits featured in a film...a deep voice is heard murmuring softly (with the cadence of a preacher), while a child's whimpering is also heard - eventually the child begins screaming; all the while, the viewer stares at this woodcut wall and notices a strange sort of face (well at least that's what I saw).   Too creepy.

4: That effin Truck from Duel:

I hate trucks.  I hate this truck especially because it kept trying to run poor Dennis Weaver off the road.

5: The Posse Bringing Ben's Body to the Fire from  Night of the Living Dead:

With it's allusion to lynchings, this still from the end credits to Night of the Living Dead, creeps me out more than any damn zombie ever could.

 6: Jack Woltz finds a Horse's Head in his Bed from The Godfather:

It may not be from a horror film, but this scene just ruined me!  I guess Woltz should have forgiven Johnny Fontaine after all.

7: Virginia's about to Give a Big Sting from Spider Baby:

...so your stuck in the window of this creepy old house, and you see this nut case coming at you with a a couple of sharp objects...

8: Mike in The Corner from The Blair Witch Project:

MIIIIKKKEEEEEE!  'nuff said.

9: The Blood Filled Tub and Reaching Hand from The Tingler:

William Castle might have been a big old hack - but this scene scared the bejesus out of me when I was a kid.  It's one of the reasons I love horror films to this day!

10: Samara from The Ring:

Creepy little girls crawling out of wells and television sets always freak me out.
