What are the scariest movies you know? I'm not just looking for scary movies that you guys like, just the scariest movies you know. It could be pure crap, as long as it's one of the scariest movie's you've seen. Shoot.

1. Jacob's Ladder
2. The Original Hellraiser
3. The Ring
4. Final Destination

Exorcist
Exorcist III
The Silence Of The Lambs
The Descent

Cabin Fever freaked me out pretty well the first time I saw it.

Dawn of the Dead was quite dumb IMO.

Saw is a movie everyone should see. You can't even predict the ending. I still have to see the 2nd one and then the 3rd when it comes out.

I'm not a big horror film guy, but I loved Saw.

The original "Alien" still gets to me.

I'm Catholic...and when I saw the Exorcist and the Omen back to back at age 13 it was enough to just throw me into a panic. I find psychological thrillers far scarier than any "gore fest."

Alien is my top "creature" horror flick. In my mind it is a masterpiece.

I liked Prince of Darkness, that was pretty scary. I felt I lost a part of myself after seeing the modern version of a Texas Chainsaw Massacre and A House of a 1000 Corpses. Completely disturbing, not scary, just downright wrong in my mind.

poltergeist (the original...i've been forever afraid of clowns b/c of this movie)

Scariest? probably not but 28 days later is without a doubt one of the best horror films in recent years.

 

[skyline889]

Scary Movie 4

 

[Squeek]

For me, the US version of The Ring was the scariest. I thought it was very well done.

 

[kugino]

anyone see the japanese film, "audition"? that was pretty creepy...

Everyone I know hates this movie! I don't get it, I thought it was great when I saw it in the theater. I actually have it next in line in my Netflix Queue.

Scariest huh, not sure if I can say off the top of my head...but as far as scary movies, I agree with Jacob's Ladder. Very creepy. So is Alien.
As far as thriller/horror goes, I was really disturbed the first time I actually sat through The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (old one).

Another interesting flick was Session 9. I liked it, all my friends hated it. The color Night of the Living Dead is always fun. The beginning of Dawn of the Dead (old one) is really serious. I recall Day of the Dead being strange. Those movies all kick@$$. Ya, The Shining is really good, the scene with the old woman (rotting flesh) was always pretty chilling. Great movie. Jack Nicholson's best.
