Movie moments that make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up



when superman changes for the first time, in each of the films, it's a rush

also, the part in "Jaws" when Brody says "Smile, you son of a..." blowup and blows the shark into orbit woot!

Saturday Night Fever - The scene when they are on the Brooklyn Bridge and Bobby falls off. It gets to me every time eek sad


In the Time of the Butterflies - The scene where Minerva goes to meet General Trujilo to try to get her father out of prison and also towards the end of the movie when the military men barge into the house and capture the Mirabal women. It makes me cry. sad

One of my fav albums ever!

I also love Prince of Egypt. The whole score is AMAZING!!!

'Deliver Us' is one of the best songs on that soundtrack.

A few scenes in Pleasantville.

When the black and white people start trashing the cafe and when everyone finally becomes colour.

I know this one is so old but when Jack dies in Titanic. I don't care how corny the movie seems now, that part always gets me teary because it was such an ordeal and he just didn't make it.

Purple Rain - when he sings Purple Rain lol

It gives me goosebumps just to imagine the sheer force it must have taken to fling that little midget across the room. He may not look like he would weigh that much, but you must remember that he had all that hair! And all those clothes...and the heels! All that stuff together must have added a good 20 pounds.

There's a scene in 'Halloween' when Jamie Lee Curtis discovers all of her friends dead in this house. One by one, their bodies are revealed to her and she collapses sobbing against a wall next to a dark doorway...

...and slowly, materializing out of the darkness of that hallway is the face of Michael Myers...

I don't care how many times I've seen it, it's still scary as hell...

5:45 of this clip... watch the whole thing, though... alone...

What gets me laughing is the fact that he's SO not a teenager and it just looks like a 50-something dude smacking a 30-something dude. falloff
