There are plenty of iconic movie images that capture the essence of human terror. Hitchcock alone is responsible for many of them. Janet Leigh screaming in the shower in Psycho. Carey Grant running along a deserted country highway from a homicidal airplane in North by Northwest. Tippi Hedren against a sky full of birds. There are others, of course, from other films and other filmmakers. The approaching shark fin of Jaws. Hannibal Lecter and his creepy mask in Silence of the Lambs. Heather Donahue’s tearful last video message in the Blair Witch Project. Robert DeNiro holding a lit emergency flare in Cape Fear. These memorable images can instantly trigger the full, creepy rush of nerve-wracking emotions felt the first time you saw those movies.
But all of these examples, and any others that you could possibly think of, will look quaint and comical compared to the sheer horror of this scene from the recent thriller Obsessed, starring Beyonce Knowles and Idris Elba. You are going to shit your pants!
AHHHHHHHHHHHH! Is it over? I put my computer in the freezer where it couldn’t get to me!
I haven’t actually seen the movie Obsessed. Is the whole thing this TERRIFYING? Good thing I have extra rollover minutes on my phone so that I can CALL MY MOMMMMMMMMMY. I just shit my pants again!

HAHA holy HELL. Please tell ME THAT IS edited! What BOZOCLOWNS sat AROUND AND decided that would BE THE THING to freak everyone out?
Now if THAT SHIT WAS red and have devil horns. Then it’d BE SATANIC. And that SHIT IS NEVER NOT scary as hell!
It is real. I saw the movie last week. It is terrible.
WOW. just. wow. WHO THE hell was sitting AROUND and decided THEY WERE going to be ADULTS making intelligent decisions? THEY ALL went out for BEERS after it, SLAPPING EACH other on the back, wondering HOW THEY could come up WITH SOMETHING so scary and something SO CHEAP!
UGH, I hate HOLLYWOOD.
Stringer Bell just shit himself.
The shit I miss when I leave my computer.
That winking emoticon was the best actor in that entire movie.
shit just got serious.
AHHHHHH! HAHAHAHA! AHHHHH! LOLOL! etc….
That was almost as scary as the fake plant that didn’t do anthing to mark wahlberg in that movie we’ll pretend never happened. I mean ‘occurred’. That movie that never ‘occurred’.
The most terrifying part of that movie was, of course, when they are running frantically from the wind.
FEAR THE WIND!!!
Was that a reference to Stepsister from Planet Weird?!
I think Stringer also needs to go back to “You Were so good in The Wire why are you now shitty” school.
I thought he was great in The Office, but yeah. His film roles are giving me nothing but forty degree days.
Go back? Idris Elba totally graduated Summa Cum Laude from that school and has now returned as an adjunct professor (he’s working on his Ph.D). The list is remarkable: This Christmas, 28 Weeks Later, and now this. You should have stayed dead when (SPOILER ALERT) Omar shot you up, Stringer.
To be fair, the emoticon is yellow in the director’s cut. Much scarier.
Forest Whitaker is… The Emoticon.
just changed my email to THETEMP@gmail.com
that’s almost as scary as Shakira’s “She-Wolf” video
My man workin’ hard at B&B Enterprises. Get that money, String.
I saw this in theatres and had a spit-take when I saw this scene. Someone needs to tell Stringer he’s fired from Dunder Mifflin.
Guys I’d be scared of a member of the blue man group winking at me too. That shit is terrifying.
I just blue myself.
It’s just business.
I can’t wait to see Obsessed…my kinda B-movie! The real test will be if it’s better than 1993′s THE TEMP …anyone remember that?
anyone?
I’m guessing many readers weren’t old enough for R-rated films back then…
anyone?
With Timothy Hutton and Faye Dunaway and Barclay from TNG?
Er, yes, I recall that film.
I bet this is how Lil Kim terrifies her lovers.
And no floppy sack mask reference, Gabe? I’m so disappointed in you.
Sheeeeeit, String.
Note to Beyonce, don’t let your father producer anymore of your movies. I also love that the ending fight scene from this movie is available for free as a clip on itunes. That’s the only mildly entertaining part of the whole movie, it’s convenient that you can now skip the garbage that was the rest of the movie and download the hot chick fight for free.
Oh man, you guys. I saw this movie on Mother’s Day with my mom and it is quite possibly the worst movie I have ever seen. I tried to warn her that it would be awful (it had a FIVE PERCENT rating on RT!) but she insisted because BEYONCE! It was AWFUL. Bad acting, horrible writing, and more slo-mo scenic pan-and-scans than The Room. Plus, it’s like 17 hours long (rough estimate). I guess what I’m saying is, I’d like to formally nominate Obsessed for TWMOAT.
LOL ))<>(( LOL
you know what I meant
The fact that it was sent from someone named “TEMPGIRL” is scarier than the actual *wink.*
Yeah, “TEMPGIRL” isn’t very subtle. ‘Oh goodness who sent me this ominous emoticon?!.. oh.. it was the temp.’
Happy Belated Birthday, Gabe!

No one watch that while drinking a beverage… it made my faygo come out through my nose.
AMAZING
Awesome. Totally awesome.
You win this round, Run BMC.
Thank you so much for this! I put my husband in it, and threw it up on Facebook.
Unfortunately, one of his friends has a crush on him, and she thought I was making fun of her. And because of that, I AM now actually making fun of her. This will keep me laughing for days!
Hey gabe, could I sent you my dry cleaning bill? i need to clean my pants of the doodie caused by that video.
Dude lost a staredown contest with an animated gif.
But you have to understand the context of the scene. The guy works as the CEO of a frown factory.
he is the CEO of goop.com?
You really have to see it on Blu Ray to get the full effect of this scene though. The low resolution of the clip doesn’t catch nuances of the smiley face’s horrifying expression.
…angry at myself for expecting something truly frightening. also, this movie looks awful.
Dr. Manhattan’s taint is winking at me.
i wonder how long the editor mulled about how long to let the smiley face stay static before it winks…at least 2 days of deep thought on the “perfect” timing on that one
wait for it…wait for it….wait for it…now!!!!
We all have to put food on our families, right Idris Elba?
what’s with Idris Elba and all these shitty horror-thriller movies? he needs a new agent.
idres elba is also trying to have a singing career. i am no Professor of Lindsay Lohans but i think this means the wire::mean girls as obsessed::i know who killed me.
idris
Your analogy notation is all messed up.
The Wire : Mean Girls :: Obsessed : I Know Who Killed Me

GABE. IT IS NOT JUST A HOMICIDAL AIRPLANE. IT IS A HOMICIDAL CROP DUSTER. PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP. I WILL NOT ALLOW SOMEONE TO BE ANY LESS THAN 100% CORRECT ON THE INTERNET.
was that freezer thing a friends reference?! my copy of little women is still in there.
It’s still better than “Heroes.”
This acting is phenomenal.
*looks down. shakes head. exhales deeply. pinches nose. looks left, then right. turns head a degree more. what is that? a smilie face? slowly begins moving head away from computer after realizing the gravity of the situation. moves away faster after the wink. sits in silence.*

“Kenny, your girlfriend, woof!” – Kevin

I will never test you again.
The lady probably didn’t deserve it though.
Uh oh. People are going to start thinking you guys are the same person if you keep talking to each other again. BE CAREFUL!
