I think I've seen some scary/disturbing Japanese movies in the past and that EXCLUDES The Ring/Ringu or The Eye.

THey just have a way of making horror flicks work NOT by making you jump all the time like lousy movies today but the whole aura and perspective period.

I don't think there are any scary horror flicks that I particularly know of (American-made) but when you're a kid, almost every horror flick will be a scary flick no matter how pathetic it may seem.

Anyway, horror flicks that aren't scary to me but yet I still enjoy for fun-factor are "April Fool's Day," "Hellraiser," "Evil Dead," "Night of the Living Dead," "Dawn of the Dead," "Phantasm," "Halloween," "Lord of Illusions," "Dead Alive" and "Dolls."

Actually the prospect of a third Harry Potter to rival the return of the king makes me sick.


well the Excorcist is the scariest movie that i have ever seen because i live in Washington DC and i've been to the house. but what makes it even scary to me is that to know that it really happen but to a boy. so for me that movie is the scariest.



I've honestly never seen a movie that scared me, and I don't think I ever will. I'm just not that easily scared, especially not by horror movies. They are so unreal. That'll never scare me. A really good thriller will be closer to scaring me than a horror movie.

(Hey Im new!) Normally scary movies dont scare me that easily, but the Halloween Movies just stay in my head, I cant foget them. Michael Myers gives me the creeps....



my pick for scariest movie would hafto be exorcist. By far. Movies that scared me as a kid (IT, pet cemetary, Nightmare on Elm Street) seemed kinda crappy when i rented them again and watched them as an adult. I rented exorcist again and it still scared the crap out of me.

for some stupid reason, the mothman prophecies scared me. I don't know why, but it did. coodos to blair witch though, that movie is truly frightening.



i think the exorcist the least scariest movie that i saw and people were saying it was scary is house of the dead

without a doubt when i was young especially, Candyman was the scariest! I could not go to the bathroom with the door closed or sleep in the same room with a mirror for years!



Here's my top 5 of scary movies.
5=worst
1=best

5.Poltergeist
4.Pet Semetary
3.Scream
2.the Exorcist
1. Texas Chainsaw Massacre (new)

I know I'm going to be shunned by posting TCSM, but I thought it was god. Pi**ed all over the original IMO.



if you can find it... i highly recommend carnival of souls... the bits where they close in on the dead guys face is pretty intense!

also the organ music throughout the entire film is pretty creepy too...

others worth a mention are:

the shining
blair witch

oh and if you can get it look up ghostwatch, its on old uk "mocumentory" and possibly the scariest thing i have ever seen in my entire life as a kid

www.bbc.co.uk/cult/ilove/tv/ghostwatch/

www.museumofhoaxes.com/ghostwatch.html

try these on for size... it was so scary they never ever played it again



28 Days Later wasn't REALLY scary, but the more I think about it the scarier it gets. The whole part where Jim is in the church was terrifying and when he and Selena are on the stairs and the infected are running up to them was pretty creepy too. Overall, it was a good movie. Also, what was the answer to infection? I thought the soldiers had it!



I don't think 28 Days Later was all that scary it was just cool and interesting and exciting.
