Scariest Films Ever?

i can't think of what the best/scariest would be, but the best recent one i've seen is May.. it's freaky because the title character is actually really loveable and endearing in a lot of ways but she gets up to some nasty ass shit.. anyways, when i was little, my parents would rent horror films and i'd cower in my room the whole time they were watching them thinking i'd be traumatically scarred by all the cinematic terror.. then, when i was six or seven i watched poltergeist at a drive-in and loved it.. it didn't, however, scare me.. in fact, i haven't really been frightened by anything i've seen since..

a couple people mentioned 'event horizon'.. i thought that was a terrible movie.. however, it did make me genuinely nauseous and very depressed.. however, the fact that i was coming down off a couple tabs of e when i watched it might have something to do with that..
 
Everyone should go rent "BONE SNATCHER." It is truly a ground-breaking horror flick, EASILY THE BEST! GO RENT IT NOW! DAMN IT.
 
The Blair Witch
I saw this the day it came out, before all the hoopla about it being fake, and was royally weirded out. In fact, I just bought this yesterday for $2.99 on dvd at a used cd store.

House of 1000 Corpses
This didn't scare SCARE me, but it grossed me the fuck out. Rob Zombie's creativity was let loose on this one, and I really enjoyed it. I think he's got a good idea of what's scary.

The Ring (American Version)
Great movie, I still watch in from time to time for a good fright.

The Original Texas Chainsaw Massacre
The grainy picture, the horrible effects, that damn chainsaw, that hideous mask...I remember being completely scurred as a kid when I saw this. A classic!
 
I know yall gonna laff, but as a kid I saw:

The Shining, Amityville Horror, Poltergeist and Halloween and I still see them as classics I love to watch, even now.
 
BA, you're pretty much on par with me as for what makes a good horror flick.

I've yet to see the original TCM, tho. =\
 
I remember the first movie to ever scare me: The Watcher in the Woods. I was young and had never seen a "scary movie" before and didn't know Disney even made scary movies for kids so I wasn't expecting it. Bastards.

Other movies that scared me are The Ring (made my teeth hurt), The Blair Witch Project, The Shining, and The Changeling.
 
Finally watched the US version of The Ring, pretty disappointing IMHO. For starters I didn't give a shit about the kid in it. Then Samara/Sadako talks! Ruins the whole maelevolent evil about her. The beauty of Ringu is that it slowly creeps up on you - I started hating the ex-husband but by the end of the film you really don't want him to die; I can't say the same for his US equivalent....

:(
 
Recently saw "Frailty" and "The Devil's Backbone" both were pretty good.
 
Watched THE FLY this afternoon (Not the original black and white one) and was pretty impressed. I think the effects fairly well stand the test of time

(unlike some recent horror movies with really unimpressive, cartoony, computer animated monsters - Can there be anything less scary?)

and found myself vaguely disturbed through the last half of the movie. The arm wrestling scene in the bar took me kind of unawares :)

Wouldn't say it was scary but had a nice, disturbing feel to it.

FLY II is pretty dissapointing though from memory...

Probably the worst thing about THE FLY is how much you would like Jeff Goldblums character to turn out all right in the end. Some very graphic scenes make me thankful I finished eating during the first ten minutes of watching it :)

ok it is horridly ;) hard to scare me with a movie.
things, ghosts, blood and gore jumping out just doesnt do it for me
i love psychologial horror... such as when i watched silence of the lambs for the first time ten years ago.
i thought perhaps now with red dragon and hannibal i would get the same thrill
with red dragon i was predicting move after move through the last hour of the movie and therefore was disappointed

so annoying enough there is book of shadows: blair witch 2
ok after all the stupid hype of the first one i dont know whos actually seen this...
the movie itself was nothing special or even good
but the idea of thinking youve been asleep when in actualty you have been in a state of doing dreadful things such as killing your best friend(s) and such
then awakening slowy to the memory of what and how you did everything
the creeping realization of the messy bloody pool before you is your doing
the thought of yourself being able to actually do something that disgusting and such a revolting idea to you
the loss of control is what gets my mind going on this concept and freaked me out when i saw it

its not that i would recomend this movie really, just a study of the subject prested forth (much more eloquently as i have not seen it in a year now) by the movie
 
^^^ Yeah Session 9 was pretty cool.

The movie that creeped me out most when I was a kid was Poltergeist.
I think I stopped watching TV for a week after seeing that. I saw it again
few years ago and still think it's a pretty cool horror flick.

I always smirk on my way to work where I see a brand new town-house complex being built right beside a cemetary.
