Man, back in like 70 or 71 I remember pissin in my fcken pants when the Chiller 6 finger hand came out of the ground and ate the letters and said C H I L L E R R R ....

I loved chiller when i was a kid, i remember watching it here and there when i was allowed, but the creepy hand also freaked me out and i loved it each time!

to be honest the scariest thing i saw on tv as a youngster was an anti-smoking commercial, where a woman said how she fell asleep with a cig, and then burned up, you see her picture then its removed and you saw the actual burned woman!!

it scared the shit out of me, i always changed the channel when it came on.

Fear.net is really cool too. I no longer have it but man it's awesome to have so many random free horror movies at your finger tips.

I'll second that.  I have FEARnet and they have a slew of horror flicks available each and every month.  You guys might also want to check out their website -- it streams full-length horror flicks you can watch at any time and it's totally free.  And it's not just DTV crap, either: they're showing Peeping Tom, Wishmaster, Milo and several others right now, and I believe it's every Thursday they put new films up. 

www.fearnet.com -- click on "free movies."

No offense TenderJane, but I honestly don't think I could make it through a single episode of any show you just mentioned. haha.

You didn't dig Lexx or Farscape? Man, I really liked them. Lexx was one of the strangest shows going, both had great production values, and Farscape, I still miss it. You definitely love it or hate it, it's weird,  out of all my friends, only like 3 of them like those 2 shows, yet they will sit and watch Basket Case for like the 35th time. lol

haha. I guess you've got to be one or the other... I love Basket Case!

btw, fredgarvin, I'm really looking forward to that Evil Dead 2 premiere on Monsters HD. I also saw they're gonna be playing Witchfinder General soon, that could be interesting, never seen it but heard pretty good things.

there is the Chiller channel on directv, its pretty cool but other than that i hate Directv and preffer Dish network

Does the Chiller Channel have originals, or is it just movies and old series?............Man, back in like 70 or 71 I remember pissin in my fcken pants when the Chiller 6 finger hand came out of the ground and ate the letters and said C H I L L E R R R .........I think that's what started my love for horror.........and Monsters HD?.........DAM, that sucks that they are exclusive to 2 separate dishes.
Which one is better?

I got Dish Network pretty much only so that I could have Monsters HD. It was amazing for the first couple of months, then something happened in November and they started just playing 2 movies a day over and over again and nobody would comment on what was going on. I was getting really pissed off and almost ready to switch providers when suddenly this month everything got cool again. Now we are back to a good lineup everyday. They play awesome stuff, uncut, no commercials and it's HD! I love it.

As for Sci-Fi channel, they don't play much that I want to watch, but you want to know something funny? My grandma loves the sci-fi channel! She likes to watch those horrible sci-fi originals with big computer animated snakes and shit. She's watching that shit every time I go over there. hahaha.

I'm diggin Monsters HD too, It's worth the extra $20 for HD by itself. From Beyond and Evil Dead 2 are both coming up.

Hey Rip. It hasn't been for the past 3 weeks that the line-up has been terrible. Try every single weekend that it has sucked. Every single line-up on the Sci-Fi channel is always horrendious.

They use to have AfterFest horror films on there like The Gravedancers, Unrest, Reincarnation, etc....and I liked the Tremors series on there but now that channel sux bad.

Ummm yeah i understand about the whole AfterDark horrorfest movies, but it doesn't do me any good b/c i own every single one of them. So there was no need for me to watch any of them. Also when it comes to Tremors, i only like the first 2 and the rest completely and utterly suck. Other than that, all the movie line-ups that they show all the time are so damn horrific.

chiller is ok, but it does piss me off because of it being badly edited like the rest of the channels.

i used to love the sci-fi channel, tons of great series and movie marathons each weekend, but over the past couple of years, i really got bored with its lack of quality and abundance of not only commercials, but those fucking annoying sci-fi channel sweepers, where something "crazy" happens thats SOOO unpredictable....

but i do have a fondness for nature gone amok films, disaster films are just fun.

Does Chiller edit the movies as if for network standards? Monsters doesn't seem to from what I've seen so far.
