Is there a more frightening movie than The Shining??

I watched this movie last night after many years since i last saw it and I believe that it has more scary scenes than any other movie. It just doesnt let up. There is no break. With all the spooky imageries, crazy jack, spooky kids, the isolation and awesome scary music, I dont think I've seen a scarier movie.

I don't think there is, maybe the Exorcist but it doesn't have the consistence that the Shining has. Best horror movie ever IMO.

I thought that Rose Red was quite a damn scary movie, although the Shining was up there with it. Just that scary old maid freaked the shit out of me!:eek:

The Shining was up there with it, with the it in that sentence being Rose Red?

''to each his own'' I guess.

I never seen Rose Red... kinda dismissed it because it was for television. I'll check it out in the future.

I thought Rose Red was entertaining, and it was a great spin on the noprmal haunted house theme, but i think The Shining is much more creepy and overtly scary.

Selly Duval running around thebuilding was the scariest part for me. She wasnt going crazy, and the ghosts decided to show themselves off to her in full force.

The pig/dog suit and the butler with the cut on his face is probably one of the weirdest, most disturbing things i have seen in a movie.
