yes!

i remember there was a little controversy about the showing going to far (by fucking with people's mental stability), and then it eventually got cancelled. i was pissed, because that was one of my favorite shows. well, i just saw this long promo on vh1 for "celebrity paranormal project". it's the same as mtv's, "fear", in format. the only thing different is that instead of using regular people, c-list celebrities will be doing the investigating of haunted places.

i'm fucking stoked! first episode is this sunday, oct. 21st @ 10pm est.

interesting... although nothing was better than seeing college aged students cry like bitches on MTV's Fear. i'll give it a look see though.

10/19/2006 6:02:58 PM

i fucking loved Fear.

i keep looking to download some episodes of that shit, but can never find it

10/19/2006 6:03:37 PM

^ i've got them all on dvd

10/19/2006 6:04:16 PM

shiiiiit

let me get a copy

10/19/2006 6:10:25 PM

fear was pretty cool. i specifically remember one episode where some dude went to investigate an attic to win the entire challange or whatever.

so he goes up there and there's like a fucking person hanging from a noose, or sitting in a chair in the middle of the room, cant rememebr which. anyway, he freaks out and runs away, complaining that something is chasing him. he gets back to the safe room and the show ends with no explanation for what the fuck was in the attic or what was "chasing" him

that has always bothered me.

^ yes, thats the second episode. he does that as a bonus challenge. i've paused it at that exact scene and swear there's some dude hanging in the background. freaky stuff

10/19/2006 6:15:36 PM

The best episode by far is Mina Dos Estrellas I. It's the only episode where every participant quits before completing the challenges. Some fucked up shit happens to those kids. And something starts knocking out the stationary cameras MTV had set up in different locations preventing them from being able to even attempt some of the challenges MTV had created.

i remember one where this gay, black dude had to remove a sheet that was covering an electric chair. he was freeeeeeeeaking out. when he finally got up the nerve to remove the sheet, he let out a shriek as he did it. one of the funniest things i've ever seen in my life.

10/19/2006 6:48:38 PM

that show was fucking gold. I'm so excited.

10/19/2006 7:13:30 PM

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY great show

10/19/2006 7:25:01 PM

gary busey is going to be on it. just having him is good enough, but put him in a psychological mindfuck situation... oh boy! it's bound be a hella good time.

10/20/2006 4:57:48 AM

I wish they'd put "I'm With Busey" out on DVD.

10/20/2006 9:28:26 AM

Needs to be on HBO or something with Busey. This show is going to be great like Fear...but I hate bleeping words out...I wanna here every statement.

wasn't Fear staged? The dude hanging from a noose was probably a prop

10/20/2006 10:11:40 AM

i dont care if it was or not, i liked the show

Godsmack!

10/20/2006 10:13:05 AM

It wasn't staged, but I'm convinced they added some of the sounds in. They also didn't use the real names of the locations they were investigating.

10/20/2006 10:15:25 AM

they (the property owners) probably didn't want the locations to be flooded with a bunch of kids who watched the show.

I liked the andy dick skit based on that show

10/20/2006 10:54:07 AM

^ haha yeah i remember that. didn't he end up in a convenience store or something?

10/20/2006 11:06:28 AM

yep. he's like "I'm cold!" and the dude in the control booth (bob from mr show) is like "andy, you're next to the cooler."

or when he goes into the bathroom and he's like "it smells like the devil pinched a loaf in here!"

10/20/2006 11:11:03 AM

Niiiiiccceee.

10/20/2006 11:11:50 AM

i just found it on youtube by searching "andy dick fear." funny stuff

i remember this one... but i remember that when he pulled the sheet, the chair slid over like a foot. plus they totally had it rigged to look like there was a person in the chair.

10/22/2006 11:39:04 PM

its on right now if anyone wants to watch

10/23/2006 12:29:24 AM

Good show, a lot like MTV's Fear. In fact, I think they may be visiting some of the same places.

10/23/2006 12:41:43 AM

it is mtv's fear. that's wrote, "vh1 brings back mtv's old show, fear", as the thread title.

10/23/2006 2:25:10 AM

Yes, thank you i know what the title of the thread is. I was only commenting on the fact that the show is similar to MTV's Fear but not the exact same. I have every episode of MTV's Fear and there are differences. The show is not the exact same, right down to the added sounds. I think VH1 is adding more "effects" in this show than MTV did.

10/23/2006 2:31:06 AM

When Gary Busey said he heard a Mechanical Tiger I almost fell in the Floor! He really was crazier than anything that happened to them in that building.

10/23/2006 1:25:06 PM

^ yeah what did he mean by that, or was he just being gary?

10/23/2006 1:45:22 PM

I'm pretty sure he was just being "Gary". It seemed like at that point the others weren't even acknowledging his crazy talk anymore. Smart of them.

10/23/2006 3:30:12 PM

ABC Family is showing a marathon of "The Scariest Places on Earth" today 10/29. It's very similar to MTV's Fear in case anyone's interested.
