Scariest movie of all time

[Chino]

Event Horizon.

It's not even a good movie, but when I saw it on TV a few years ago, I had nightmares all night. Probably didn't help that I saw it at 2am in the morning.

The scene where they show wtf happened to the crew that made the jump stayed with me for a long long time.

Dead Silence I guess because it is very suspense.

I saw "The Blair Witch" on Halloween at midnight with some friends on the day it opened. I was on the edge of my seat for some of it; especially at the end when they find that house. The hype and the supposed supporting footage they did to make it seem real was clever I thought. After the movie, we all wanted to go wandering around the woods, but didn't because we were all skurrd.

I'll start with my kids for some reason the camera view going through the woods in the evil dead series scared the living crap out of my sons they wouldnt even look at the screen. My daughter absolutely freaks about chucky.

Asain films I would say "spirits" and "Silk" both ghost stories very eerie.

Recent startle fest monsters "Feast" and "Pulse"

All time favorite zombie "Dawn of the dead" the 70s one in the mall

"Riding the Bullet", "Quicksilver highway" and "the hitcher" will change your idea about hitch hiking.

Lots of other great ones - "dead birds" - "House on haunted hill" - "prime evil" and so on.

I have a library of over 400 horror movies its the best way to go to sleep at night.

some really good ones been mentioned already

in no particular order

1) The Omen (original) - creepy characters + creepy music + plus psychological devil shit
2) Poltergiest - ghosts that can hurt you, indian burial grounds, midgets, other dimensions
3) IT - creepy clowns, powerless kids, powerless adults
4) Event Horizon - now that's freaky
4b) Sphere - psychologically gets you
5) Jaws - saw this the first time right before going to the beach as a kid

I haven't read a lot of horror books (they're WAY scarier than movies) but a few good ones that got me as a kid were

Son of the Endless Night by John Farris about a 'true' story of demonic possession. Very graphic and very disturbing. definitely gets a nc-17 or X rating for a book. One of the scariest books you can read, imo and the ones i could find online.

Cujo Something about Stephen King's books make them scary until you've read an ass of them (or so i hear).

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. the original with Gene Wilder.

The tunnel scene with the weird images like the guy cutting the head off of a chicken with the creepy music in the background and flashing lights. Just a scary scene from my childhood. I don't really watch scary movies, ever.

I could've sworn I saw nudity or at least some fucked up shit in that tunnel scene when I was a kid. Definitely one of my favorite movie characters.


Might could help me out here: I saw a movie that scared the shit out of me when I was a kid but I never knew the title. It had aliens of some sort that when shot (and blown apart) their pieces would try to reform. I remember them putting a piece in a glass jar or something... oh well I thought it was in gremlins, but it wasn't...

[duel pasta]

YES! omg, IT! I saw that as a kid, very scary movie! I'll never forget the shower scene..

[Lizard Fuel]

There was a movie released a couple months ago that I just saw last night called "The Happening", and that was really good. I'm not the biggest fan of M. Night Shyamalan (Signs) but this movie was pretty suspenseful, which I can't say about most movies. Definitely check it out if you get the chance

[ConcreteSchlyrd]

I thought The Happening sucked balls.

"Hey donkey. What's goin' on? I like your beard. Say hi to your mother for me, alright?"

Zooey Deschanel, on the other hand, is hot as hell.

[Liquid Blue]

I agree

[Epinephrine]

The Ring, by a huge margin. Saw it for the first time up at my cottage around midnight just my girlfriend and I. About 30 min into the movie I unplugged the phone...

LOL we saw that movie a while back in our house in university. Then after the movie when the one of the girls who watched it with us and was a scardy cat went to shower, they turned on her tv to static, she walked in, screamed, then they called her hahahaha. It was hilarious.

[pengsdf]

What's IT?

fasfaw

[Pressure Drop]

Ok well the scariest thing I saw wasn’t a movie but freaked me out when I was a child, it was like a blair witch sort of thing as in it was a ghost documentary thing on holloween except I missed the start where it told you it was fake. After that nothing was as scary and I disassociated movies and reality a lot better

So off theme and being pretentious, one of the scariest movies I’ve seen is about the genocide in Rwanda called shooting dogs as it was based on real events that happened within my living memory and how shocking humans can act to one another.

Back on theme

Fuck off <3 Event horizon

I liked the Japanese ring movie, really well done and scary too

Rosemary’s baby is a good paranoia scare movie

Omen was great

Candy Man hahaha I haven’t thought about that one in a while, still being a kid after watching that and saying it 5 times :fear:

By no means a horror but damn it HAL in 2001 space odyssey was pretty scary, really captured the scariness and vulnerability of the isolation of a spaceship with a mental A.I. in control

Alien was pretty scary

All I can think of is sci-fi’s now ><



p.s. IT was good till the end where they ruined it completely

[Zeebu]

hellraiser

alien

the exorcist
