00:00First off, could you introduce yourself please?

00:02So my name's Kelly McGuckin and I'm from Cookstown.

00:04Nice to meet you Kelly. And what's the scariest horror film you've ever seen?

00:07Personally, Terrifier 3.

00:09So I saw it a couple of days ago with my friends and it was literally like

00:13there's too much gore for me and not for me at all.

00:15But it was good, but still not for me.

00:17Are you a horror film fan? Do you watch many horror films?

00:20I would, yes. I do like horror films, romantic films, all that kind of thing.

00:24But this one would have to be the top scariest one for me personally.

00:27And are you dressed up for Halloween this year?

00:29I'm not too sure yet. Still making up trying to find an outfit, but not too sure yet.

00:33Right, so first off, could you introduce yourself please?

00:35Connor. My name's Connor.

00:37Nice to meet you Connor. And what's the scariest horror film you've ever seen?

00:40Probably the best. Not so much the scariest, but the best is probably The Babadook.

00:44And what about that do you particularly like?

00:46It's meditation on grief and the storyline is not always immediately obvious.

00:52But once the narrative progresses, you see what's going on. It's very well done.

00:58And are you a big horror film fan?

00:59Yeah.

01:00Any other particular favourites that come to mind?

01:02The Exorcist because it's a classic. It was the original Possession film and in my opinion it's still the best.

01:08And are you dressed up for Halloween this year?

01:10If I'm off work, yeah.

01:12So could you introduce yourself please?

01:13Hello, I'm Cammie.

01:15And what's the scariest horror film you've ever seen?

01:18I think the scariest horror film I've ever seen is Saw because it's very gory.

01:22Are you a horror film fan? Do you watch many?

01:24Yeah, I really like them. I've watched a lot coming up to Halloween too.

01:27Have you got any particular favourites? Maybe not the scariest.

01:30Scream. Scream is probably one of my favourites. It's a classic.

01:33And are you dressed up for Halloween this year?

01:35Yeah, I'm dressed up as Catwoman.

01:37Catwoman?

01:38Not very scary but it's pretty cool.

01:40So could you introduce yourself please?

01:41Hi, my name is Jason.

01:43And what's the scariest horror film you've ever seen or your favourite horror film maybe?

01:47Probably one of them Insidious ones. They've been out for a while now, Insidious.

01:52What do you think about Insidious films? Like some of the scariest films?

01:56I think it's more the paranormal part of it. You can't physically see what it is that's there.

02:02I think that's probably what scares most people.

02:04And are you a horror film fan? Do you watch many horror films?

02:06I've watched every one of them. I've watched lots of them.

02:09But again, they're not horrors, they're just movies.

02:12Any other particular favourites that come to mind?

02:14Cabin in the Woods. It's a funny one. It's a funny horror movie.

02:19What's that other one? There's quite a few. They don't even come to mind now.

02:28Exorcism of Emily Rose and stuff like that. Those kind of ones, yeah.

02:33And are you dressed up for Halloween this year?

02:35It depends on my daughter. I might do Betelgeuse.

02:42Could you introduce yourself please?

02:43My name is Sarim. I'm 18 years old and I go to university here.

02:49And what's the scariest horror film you've ever seen?

02:54Probably Dubby. It's a Turkish horror film.

02:57What is it?

02:58Dubby.

03:00And what about that is particularly scary?

03:02It's like, on a religious point of view, it's very scary in my opinion.

03:08And just the way it's filmed, it's filmed in a documentary type of video.

03:12So that just makes it scarier for me.

03:16And are you dressed up for Halloween this year?

03:18No.

03:19Are you a horror film fan? Do you watch a lot of horror films?

03:21Yeah, I do.

03:22Do you have any other particular favourites from the night?

03:25Probably The Conjuring Trilogy or anything from those movies.

03:30Annabelle, The Conjuring. All of those are good.

03:33Perfect.

03:34Could you introduce yourself please?

03:35Sarim.

03:37And what's the scariest horror film you've ever seen?

03:39Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho. But I don't really find it scary. I just enjoy it.

03:43You just enjoy the film?

03:44Yeah.

03:45And what do you think makes that film particularly scary?

03:48Well, I know the, what do you call it, the backtracks and stuff.

03:51Where the comedic kind of false suspense and kind of what's going to happen next and stuff.

03:56It's classic because it's black and white so you don't have to really worry about what colours you're seeing and stuff like that.

04:02And are you a very horror film fan? Do you watch a lot?

04:05I do like horror but it's all getting a bit unpredictable now.

04:09I only find one that's going to give me a good scare.

04:12And are you dressed up for Halloween this year?

04:14Nah, me and the Wayne's are aye.

04:16What are his dress up as?

04:18We're all dressed up as a thing.

04:22So it's not really scary. It's more for the Wayne's look.

04:24So the Wayne's are, she's doing Jake the Dog.

04:27Melody goes doing, playing princess.

04:30The weeest one's doing the wee computer beemo.

04:33And then fella is doing funly human.

04:37And then you get one when you're doing princess.

04:39Oh god.

04:41So, I wish it would make you cry.

04:46Introduce yourself please.

04:47Cormac Morris.

04:49And can you tell me what's the scariest horror film you've ever seen?

04:53That's a good question.

04:55Um, probably IT.

04:58IT? What's scary to you? Is it the clown?

05:02Probably the clown, yeah.

05:04And are you a big horror film fan? Do you watch a lot of horror films?

05:07I wouldn't watch too many now myself.

05:08But my brother and sister would be very big into it now.

05:13And are you dressed up for Halloween this year?

05:15Nah.

05:17That's not exactly my thing, dressing up and all.

05:20I like the holiday, you know what I mean.

05:23It wouldn't be a big dress up for a flick.

05:27Jim Craig.

05:28And Jim, what's the scariest horror film you've ever seen?

05:31Hitchcock, The Birds.

05:33And what about that's particularly scary?

05:38Well, if you play around here, and all those pigeons coming, that can be scary.

05:43It's a flashback, really terrifying.

05:46And are you a fan of horror films? Do you watch them?

05:48Not particularly, no.

05:49That's it? Perfect.
