Who likes "Scare Tactics?"
I do! I do!

The original precursor on NBC was better. Scare Tactics has some hokey flaws but I still always watch.

Its on the Sci-Fi Channel now.

1. I've seen the show
It's too mean spirited for my tastes.

2. I absolutely LOVE it
What's your favorite scare all-time?

I really like the one where the government comes looking for the escaped shape-shifter. That poor kid was so terrified when he heard the gunshot outside.

The other one that was pretty good was the interview with the serial killer. They actually had to cut it short because the girl got too scared.

Great show! I so wish I could be on it but being a fan kinda makes it unlikely.

I don't remember the one on NBC? How long ago was it on?

3. I think it was about a year to 18 months ago
The premise was a crew riding around in a big truck with a lot of high tech equipment. I dont' remember the name of the show. Someone will.

The special, live effects were much better. One episode had a pizza delivery guy delivering a pizza to a hotel room where doctors were operating on a guy. It looked SO real. Stomach totally exposed. The doctors started eating the pizza while operating, dropped the pizza in the blood, picked it up and kept eating. The patient went flat line and the doctors had the delivery guy help them operate. The delivery guy ended up DIVING THROUGH A GLASS WINDOW TO GET OUT OF THE ROOM.

It was great. I think it was created by the same guy who created Fear Factor. I don't know why it went off of the air.

4. I liked the MTV show "Fear"
I didn't really like any of the other "reality" shows. I loved that show though, it was very entertaining. I loved watching those kids freak out in hauted places.
