Okay.. just watched White Noise and I'm freaked out !
I can't remember seeing a movie that disturbed me in such a way. I was not terribly impressed with the movie and hated the ended ... though Michael Keaton is one of my favorite actors. The documentary at the end, with the actual paranormal investigators, got to me. I had knowledge of EVP prior to the movie but hadn't delved into the subject enough to really let it have an effect on me. I even went to the investigator's website a few minutes ago and would love to read the book by one of the members titled I'm Still Here... written about the author's communication with her daughter after her death a few years ago.
I believe in the paranormal but struggle with it due to certain personal Christian beliefs. I would absolutely LOVE to research the subject but won't.
anyway... no special reason for creating a thread about the movie ... other than to share the fact that it disturbed me and left me walking around the house with a million questions stirring around in my restless brain.
I can't watch scary movies, or movies about the dead communicating with the living. It took me decades to shake scenes from "Amityville Horror" LOL I would wake up, and the clock would read 3:15 and I would be petrified.
Thanks for the warning, LOL

Okay, ghosts....hmmm...I am not sure I want to be doing this at 2:30 am just before I go to bed
Ghosts are people who have lost their bodies due to acts of violence, or suicide, or just plain losing it when they are not ready, and therefore are stuck on the material plane, and they hang out on the mental plane (since the remaining substance they have left is the mind) til they were supposed to go. They are attracted to welcoming environments (who isn't?), and when you think about them, talk about them, watch movies about them, etc, you are creating an environment that attracts them.
Sooo...watching a movie that is all about them, and throws in real stuff at the end...is gonna bring them around big time! Ick!
Not everybody gets bothered by them, because not everybody has an open receptive window in their mind for them, but some people do, and I am one of them. I don't get as bothered by them as my BIL and MIL, though. But I get bothered enough, usually at night, which is why I really shouldn't be thinking about them right now! I have had several instances of attacks after either watching a movie, or reading a book on paranormal investigations. I don't read them anymore....
I guess I must not be receptive, cause I watch paranormal investigative stuff all the time, listen to Coast to Coast AM, and generally am obsessive about that kind of things. I am very interested in EVP's and was planning on not seeing this movie at all. In the age of movies like The Grudge, I doubt that any real EVP information would be used in White Noise, not interesting enough. DH and I are kinda weird that way, some couples are into sports together or other hobbies, we are into paranormal research

ITA 100% I'll admit that for some scary movies, the previews suck me in! But depending on the type of movie, I don't rent b/c like the OP I don't like the questions that start stirring.
and amityville-eek still makes me scared after 10+ years! lol
