Scariest Scene in a movie

I was eight or nine when I first saw The Shining... that part and the whole ending scared the crap out of me.

oh dead god when the girl in the exorcist walked down the stairs like a spider i freaked out, that part still scares me to death.

Ok, I have never seen this part in the movie. Is it in the extended version or something? I saw an extended version at Video Update but it was out. So for all the people who've seen it, is it any better than the original? because I've only seen the original.

ugh, i feel like such a crybaby, scardy-cat, girly man fuggin kiddy; i couldnt get to sleep last night after watching 'the blair witch project' [never saw it before, didnt know much about it going into it]. scared me as white as a kleagle in the pale moonlight right from the word "go". why, i broke out in a cold sweat and felt my pulse raise just at the old "crazy woman" describing the witch. thought "maybe i'm getting sick" but no such luck. i'm just a big fat wimp.

that was a scary movie when i saw it for the first time too...and it was even scarier cause my house is surrounded by trees. lol.

I will definitely agree.

The first time I saw The Exorcist I was scared to death.

The Exorcist is the type of movie you feel like your gonna go to hell just by watching it. Whether that be a good or bad thing. I say it is quite an achievement for a movie.

Not to mention the movie is based on a true story. (but of course there is alot of hollywood mixed in with it.)

I only recently saw the Exorcist and am actually amazed that people now think it's scary... but whatever.

The Sixth Sense also scared me... In particular the scene when the little boy runs to get in his clipped together tent and the clothes pins start coming undone... Freaks me out what might be getting ready to come after him.

the exorcist scared the sh*t out of me. but the scene when regan runs down the stairs like a spider didnt scare me at all. it was so quick. all she did was run down and blood came out of her mouth. when everyone on this thread was talking about it i got all excited and i finialy bought the DVD.(which i was planning to buy even if you guys didnt say anything about that scene.) i watched it ready to get freaked out by that scene and it was pretty dumb.

Resident Evil - When they are all trapped in that tiny hallway with the gazillion lights, and that laser is coming towards them, then finally reaches the point when it has to turn into cubes and it clices that dude up.

The Ring - Yeah, I'm a huge horror freak, and for some odd reason, this movie just literally made me piss my pants.

Halloween - IDK, I guess every series movie (escept number 3) when Michael Myers appears out of nowhere.

Some of the scenes in Alien made me jump.

The "face hugger" scene.

Dallas(Tom Skerritt) in the airshaft.

When the cat jumps out of the locker.

Like a couple of people have said, the scene in The Shining, every time it took a shot of the two little girls, I was just really creeped out. I wasn't scared, but the whole sequence of Danny and Jack in the maze really got my heart racing.

Man I know what your talking about! I was watching that with my friend for the first time one night, and that caught me totally off guard! Yeah I had difficulty falling to sleep with that face in mind.

The Ring never managed to really scare me (with the possible exception of the scene where she falls into the well and I was expecting something more horrific than the actual scene that ensued, and even then it was more "expectation" than "scared")... Likewise with The Blair Witch Project... I expected to be so freaked out that I never really was. Sometimes I think the hype the movies get telling you how scary they are actually takes away from the scare factor. If I'm expecting it I'm not scared at all.

I can think of a few scenes: Chestburster from Alien, Dog's face splitting open from the Thing, opening scene in Jaws.

Yeah, I remeber that one. It was right when you least expected it.

But did you notice when they were walking across that hallway after the incident, there were no bodies to be seen. I mean, there should be somthing there.
