The Hand by digitalrn

The Hand

This is what I think of when I think of the 1981 movie, The Hand. It stars Michael Caine who plays a comic book writer who loses his hand in a car accident. The hand is never found at the accident scene, but it does begin to follow him around and then it begins killing people who anger him. It's kind of silly now when you consider some of the modern day horror movies with all the neat effects, but back then it was pretty freaky.
that is TOTALLY creepy!! yikes!!

You are so right about those old movies that "used to be" scary...kids today are so used to high tech sci-fi that they would really laugh at the absurdity of those old movies!

January 12th, 2011  
Great shot! Yeah... I agree, as we see technology and make up artistry improve, the older films seem a bit weird. lol, but I still like the older ones. They don't scare me as bad.
