1. The Woman In Black
-scared the living crap out of me when i saw it. can't remember much from it, but it's about this person who gets haunted by this old ugly woman. imdb.com: "the mother of all hauntings"
2. The Blair Witch Project.
-i know a lot of guys that really HATES this movie. but i must admit that got really scared. but you have to see it alone, otherwise it doesn't work.
3. The Shining
-murder.
4. The Exorcist
-still a great movie, only wished that i'd saw it when it first came out.

The Exorcist was a great gross out comedy. Supoib, but didn't see it all.
My favourite horror though would be The Thing. Completely over-the-top and disturbing. I loved every gore-fuelled minute.....oh right.....SCARIEST....can't help you there.

arachnaphobia (sp?)
i know it wasn't all that great. But in real life i am terrified of spiders... so this movie was like my worst nightmare come to life or something... very disturbing. Especially when of the first scenes... when they pick up the dead spider and put it in a jar... and than it turns out it isn't actually dead! oh my! I froze in my seat!
Also Pet Cemetary, 1st Poltergeist, even the 1st Child's Play!
Actually i remember them as being really scary... but it's been a while since i actually saw them. But when i was younger and saw them for the first time... oh my god :-p

I agree on the whole Arachophobia thing. Can't stand the little shits. Shame about the mechanised one at the end, looked very laughable. And please name me a spider than squeals. I'm begging you.

Yes i know... the movie became really absurd in the end. Don't these movie-makers understand one small spider creeping up on someone is alot more scary than hundreds of spiders storming a house :-/
I realise you need a climax to end a film, but still... this was pure anticlimax... all the tension gone.
But oh well... i still have nightmares about some of the early scenes in that movie... so it deserves to be mentioned in this thread :-p

Spoorloos (I think this was a Dutch movie, remade into the inferior USA movie, "The Vanishing")
You should read the book! :-o Talk about claustrophobia... oh my god. The american remake was ridiculous because they changed the ending :-/ The ending was the best part of the original book!
The book was called "het gouden ei"... the golden egg... but i guess the translation was probably also called the vanishing. It's by tim krabbé anyway, it's really short and really scary.

I saw the blair witch project when i taped it off the television. the movie wasn't scary at all. i watched it all the way through tense thinking that something scary would happen (cause of all the ads saying it and stuff and from people)...but nothing did. i watched as everything between the people fell apart...everything was. it wasn't until the end that made me go 'whoa'....but the real scar didn't come until sometime after the movie itself that i finally caught on to why the guy was standing like that in the corner. i was very scared after that...very.

serious? you didn't catch on?
i can't remember fully, but it went like something the witch would take kids and one had to stand in the corner while the witch did someting nasty to the one he / she was killing. there were stories told by people how the kids did that.
at the end you hear screaming right? and the guy is trying to find the girl and the guy....and he searches calling out.
he goes into the basement and sees the the guy standing in the corner....he drops his camera....get it?

ok.....so i have not seen everyone's scarest movies...so this is based on just what i've seen!
i'm interested in seeing 'the haunting' and the 50's version of 'the thing'
darn Q stole two of mine =0)
- alien - invasion of the body snatchers (70's) - the thing (80's done by Carpenter - halloween - aracnaphobia (FREAK OUT!!) - spiders (dunno 70's i think....i couldn't sleep the night i saw it-do not light the eight legged beasties)
- the ring Japanese first/American second! - the silence of the lambs - the night of the scarecrow (old tv movie that almost made me pee my pants)
there were some scary movies i saw when i was really young....i love scary stuff....but i don't remember the name...couldn't watch the whole thing etc....but they were scary!!
good topic evil Q!!

Amonbrune, an even scarier possibility is that whoever is holding the camera is being held by the back of the neck and forced down into the basement.
I thought there were only two alive at that point, the girl holding the camera and the guy in the basement. We hear the girl screaming as the cold dead talons of the witch close around the back of her neck...

If I ever see it again I'll take notes.
It would be worth seeing again under the right conditions... Halloween night in a graveyard on a laptop with a DVD player maybe.
The scenes where somethings messing with their tent at night creeped the fuck out of me. Reminded me of when I was bicycle camping in New Hampshire and alone in a tent. There was a low creeping mist over the ground at night and I was too scared to go out to pee... I took a leak through the doorway of the tent hoping that any Lovecraftian elder gods in the area had their pee-sensors turned off for the night.

Anyone seen "The Amityville Horror"
I saw that when i was 9 and wanted to leave the room, but my dad wouldn't let me. You know, just to toughen me up a bit!
It's the only film that's ever shit me up that much - i guess it's cos it's meant to be real. haven't seen it since though so i guess it might not be so bad

Blair Witch was lame.. boring, and The Exocist was boring too.
The shining was pretty cool but not really scary. No movies really creep me out. The ones that ever did were Session 9 a little, it was totally the shit, but not scary, cause I only got scared by movies when I was really young.

About this Blair With Project ending...
It was to do with (thanks to sis for pointing this out) a story told by one of the locals near the beginning. He talks about that child killer that lived in some alienated house that got the kids to stand in the corner and not to face him, because he couldn't stand them looking at him. You see?? Huh?? Do ya??

The Haunting is indeed a VERY scary film, the bit where the 'thing' is pounding at the door is pretty fucking terrifying.
Alien, deffo the first time i saw it, in a caravan oark when i was about 9 or 10.
RIng, nah i thought it was a bit shit to be honest, slightly ridiculous in parts actually, some OK bits but deffo NOT worth the accolades and hype that has been bestowed upon it.
Texas Chainsaw - fucking amazing film, scary, excellent sfx soundtrack and amazing camerawork, also very funny as well, my wife had terrible nightmares for weeks after seeing this film, soopoib.
any of those video nasty zombie flicks way back in theday when an 11 year old could rent them, scary in an 11 year old 'my mind is messed up know' kinda way.
by the way fleetmouse, who is that foxy chick on yer avatar, please dont tell me its actually you and in actual fact i am a closet homo, and its not a chick at all. 8¬D
