Scariest movie?

What's the most absolute, juiciest, mind-fuckingly scariest movie you've ever watched?

The Haunting of Hill House (1962 version) - based on Shirley Jackson's novel, the "ghost" is only heard and never seen. It still scares the shit out of me. The 1998 re-make is a piece of shit.

Day of the Dead was pretty scary, but zombies have always freaked me out.

Rosmary's Baby was scary as shit. The whole movie sounds implausible, a New York housewife having satan's child, but the movie has this tension that runs throughout. Plus there are a couple scenes that make you jump right out of you skin.

warrrreagl, I like movies like that to. The blood and guts are fun (mostly funny), but the best horror is always psychological.
My vote goes to The Shining.

the Exorcist, hands down. the story is solid, the acting is solid, and that demon that pops on and off screen at unlikely times keeps you on edge. then you have the whole 'based on a true story' edge, too.

Event Horizen is the only movie to almost make me leave the theater. i was 18 or so... i hadn't been frightened or made uncomfortable by a movie in about a decade.... but EH scared me shitless.

The ring was pretty unsettling, but "In the mouth of madness" is the one that still bothers me to this day.. The man on the bike was too much.

WhoaitsZ,

I was scared shitless by The Exorcist, too. Just hearing those opening notes of Mike Oldfield's "Tubular Bells" is enough for nightmares to kick in even today.

The Omen - I was 10 years old and at a friends house. His parents were out, and because we were hard men we watched the Omen, which his parents had on video. Afterwards, when I had to go home the 10 minute journey took 2 minutes. I'm sure I was running so fast I overtook a few speeding cars !

The light stayed on at night in my room for weeks afterwards !

The Prince of Darkness and the Evil Dead (the first one) are the first ones that come to mind.
Scariest TV show has to be Anna Nicole Smith's. I shudder anytime I see the commercial.

Salems Lot scared the shit out of me when I first saw it as a child. That movie produced many nights of cold sweating looking around my dark room.

I never looked at a mirror the same after the Prince of Darkness.

ROTFL. I can totally relate. I saw The Omen when I was around 13-14 yrs. old. It scared me to death. Me, my brother and sister all watched it together. Let me tell you that NO ONE got up to pee!!

I havnt been scared in some time. The only time I can remember being scared by a movie was after seeing Dracula: Prince of Darkness (I was 7 at the time). I even made a make-shift crucifix to keep by my bed :P

I'd have to go along with the votes for the Shining. I remeber my parents watching it when I was very young and the two little girls standing side by side in the hallway...*shudders*...freaks me the F#ck out to this day.

I recently saw House of 1000 Corpses. I thought it was extremely scary.

I can't wait to check out some of these movies...i.e. The Omen, Event Horizon...I looooove scary movies!!!!

kenshee: Donnie Darko does have some pretty creepy moments.

IMO the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre is the scariest movie. The movie spends a lot of time not showing anything and when the good stuff shows up it doesn't look like the crap that Hollywood glamorizes today. Plus driving through Texas you can see farm houses out in the middle of no where and you can truly see some twisted, fucked up family living in the filth that they do and LOVE it!

Scary shit!

The Ring wins hands down (American or Japanese version; they're equally freaky), though I remember being very scared by Return of the Living dead when I was about 11. The idea of a horror/comedy wasn't too clear to me at that age...

it was actually 3 movie episodes. Two of them were kinda scary but the one with the voodoo doll really freaked me out. It gave me very bad nightmares for several days and I was scared the voodoo doll was hiding under my bed waiting to stabb me with the kitchen knife...

i'm with the "exorcist" crowd. i was 9 the first time i saw it and didn't sleep the whole night. i kneeled in my bed and prayed to god all night that he wouldn't let that happen to me! the part where she scratches "help me" from inside scares the hell out of me still today.

I watched Halloween III when I was 8 years old. Couldn't sleep for over a month afterwards. I was afraid robot monsters were going to come into my room in the middle of the night at poke my eyes out, and crush my skull. The only thing I could think about was how much I wanted a knight's helmet so the bad robots wouldn't be able to poke my eyes out.

Maybe not too scary, but to me very creepy and disturbing was David Cronenberg's "The Fly," especially when Jeff Goldblum is in the process of changing into the fly thing and has sex with that woman. It gave me goosebumps. A very dark movie.

I saw the Exorcist when it was in theaters rereleased a few years back, my first time seeing it, the part with the kid crawling downstairs backwards was pretty frightening. Also the beginning, when it's all loud with the dogs or whatever howling, nothing was even really happening, and it was STILL scary.

Ringu and I suppose Ring 2.
The Exorcist was crap. So over rated, I watched it and hated it, did nothing for me.
Event Horizon is freaky but not scary. I really like the film but I dont see why everyone is so scared when they watch it.

hmmm, scary movies......the scene in the exorcist with linda blairs character crawling down the stairs backward made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up and i broke out in goose bumps all over.

the mouth of madness was excellent, well crafted psychological horror e.g.; the woman with her husband handcuffed to her ankle naked, later on he turns into a tentacle thing and she is hacking him up with an axe, but it only gives you a quick glimpse.

pyramid of fear (young sherlock holmes) scared the hell out of me when i first saw it at the theatre when i was about 9.
but in recent years, i havent really been scared by movies, silent hill the video game did what no movie could, it was by far, the most disturbing experience brought to me through a visual medium.
Middle of the night, lights off, headphones on, playing the intro where he walks down that alleyway behind the buildings, suddenly it is getting darker, you come across this wheelchair , then a little further on, a hospital gurney with bloodstains on the sheets and an air raid siren going in the background, go through a gate and there is a couple of corpses strung up on the fence, suddenly there are these little midget things with claws attacking you, PANIC STATIONS!!! immersive and di-fucking-sturbing

THE RING!!! Creepy as hell, especially when they would show the people that had been "scared to death"! I loved that movie, awesome concept, does annyone know where I can get the japanese version?

The Halloween series is my favorite when it comes to older classic horror.

House of a 1,000 corpses was good and had some freaky scenes but didn't give me night mares, thats how you can tell if it's a good horror flick...

The worst horror flick ever!!!???
Jeepers Creepers... It had some freaky scenes and had a lot of potential, but there were sooooooooo many holes and dead ends to certain plot twists, that it just pissed me off..... It did have an eerie end though, not very many horror flicks end like that.

The only horror movie I've ever watched that scared me even a little bit was the first time I watched Evil Dead. Other than that, I've never seen any horror movies that did much for me.

I rented the Japanesse version at the local big name video place (Hollywood video).

But I have to say, after being bombarded with all the hype I was ready to be scared out of my pants and was sadly disappointed.

I heard the Japanese version was scarier than the american version, the American version was out so I pick up the Japanese. I waited and waited for this overwelming fear and it never happened. The movie did absolutly nothing for me.

And since I was so let down from the original I have yet to watch the re-make... which is the exact same story with better effects. The original relied only on psycological fear and nothing visual.... it was all implied.
