Scariest movie you have ever seen

[Rage777]

Okay guys, I have been watching horror all my life and sure ive seen a film that will give you the chills here and there but its would be really sad if that is the best horror media has to offer. I wanted to hear some suggestions on what you guys would thing is like all time unmatched scary movies out there, I'm talking about ones who haunt you as you grow up, something you can never forget about. You guys hear of like the 10 movies to die for aka horror fest, they are like the movies are so graphic and raw that they weren't able to release it in theatres. I watched one of them, the one called The Grave Dancers, sure I thought it has its moments in a scene or too but cammonnnnnn. So I wanna hear some suggestions from you guys out there, I am sure there are peeps out there with tons of more horror experience than me, just hope you can share the wisdom.

So lets hear some suggestoions guys........

omcdave or renob would crack wood over that shit :D

[The Flayed One]

Your thread title suggests creepy/scary, but your post suggests you're looking for something disturbing/disgusting instead. Or do you consider them to be one and the same?

Tell us a little bit about your taste in movies so we can better assist you.

There are plenty of classics out there that scare the hell out of kids and the general adult public (exorcist, the ring) but just dont jave the same impact on day to day horror fans. So are you looking for the kinfd of thing that scares horror fans, or people in general?

[Tisha]

It is still the Amityville Horror (1979), not to be confured with the remake, which was just unbelievably stupid.

[halloweenfreak1]

UMMMMMMMMMM............. you know thats a good question, probubly halloween the first time i saw it ( I was 7). And ummmmm....... i dont know about scare the hell out of me but the thing had its moments.

[slayer666]

I think the hard thing is that the films that traumatized me in my youth (e.g., The Exorcist, Jaws, The Shining) don't have the same impact today because I've seen them so many times. Coming up with a film that is truly scary in my adult years is a challenge. Honestly, I think I'd have to say that the closest I've found was Blair Witch Project. As someone who used to do a lot of tent camping, this one really freaked me out the first time I saw it, haunting me for days afterward. I'm not even sure what a close second would be at the moment, but I'll give it some thought.

I think this has the potential to be a good thread if we can keep it above the level of toilet humor for a change.

[BASSI]

the movie that scared me were

1 Ju-on: The Grudge - the whole movie was so scary, (one scene in movie creep me out, the was when the girl wake in middle of the night to see that the Ghost boy and girl looking her)

2 Ringu- this movie did scare the hell out me, i was on floor and close to the TV at time girl came out TV and that scared the shit out of me, almost ran out the room

3 Evil dead 2 - 1st time i got scared so i turn it off, but then the next day i watch not turing it off, great movie

4 Signs - when they show the part the Alien at the birthday party that ALWAYS sends shivers down my back (why is this movie a 12 it should be a least 15)

5 The Thing - that all am going say

that my top five movie that scared me

Unfortunately I doubt theres anything that will actually scare you a lot, or really impress you with its amount of disturbing scenes. The problem is you had to of asked this question when you were about 10 and I have the feeling you are at least in your teens.

When I was a very young kid, sure, some movies scared the crap out of me, but those days are gone :( Stupid desensitised sick mind. :mad:

[Amalthea_unicorn]

Signs too! :eek:

[swiss tony]

when you are older nothing really scares you shitless. i do have to say i was severely traumatised by the exorcist at 10 years old. it still gives me the shivers, especially when i watched the extended version with the demon faces flashing in the shadows and the spider walk. also, i watched the omen trilogy around the same age. recently emily rose was quite jumpy, but like i said you never really get that scared when you are older. blair witch was quite atmospheric and the passion was just plain disturbing. so those are my recommendations however obvious they might be:)

[slayer666]

In recent adult years, I have been focusing more and more on Asian horror. Because it is much less familiar to me than American horror, I find it to be far more effective in provoking fear. I'm less able to predict what is going to happen next, and I've not had the opportunity to habituate to the film conventions they use. Best of all, I've rediscovered that feeling of not being able to get certain films out of my mind the next day.

If mainstream American horror is not doing it for you, I'd suggest some experimenting with Asian horror.

[swiss tony]

funny you should say that. i've been veering in that direction myself but have only got as far as buying old boy. recommend your top 5 asian movies and don't worry about including the obvious ones. thanks

[XtRaVa]

Yeah. I mean I'm 22 now, but only watched Kairo this year. It's not an overly scary movie or anything, but I have to admit I was quite freaked out.

SPOILER

The bit where the guy accesses the internet for the first time, only to have some weird guy appear on his screen was very weird. Then it turns on by itself to see more of the same.

/SPOILER

Although its not something that would make you jump, or even be very scared, if you think about it in terms of it could happen to you its very freaky. (It was worse due to the fact my PC froze at one point with a shadowy figure full screened lol). I think thats why a lot of asian horror is working so well lately, now that its using modern communication technology (and previously video tapes ;)).

Everyone has a telephone, and a computer...and EVERYONE would be very freaked out if they had bizarre phone calls, or freaky stuff appear on their screen whilst surfing the net. However its very unlikely you could ever see yourself in a situation of being hunted by a monster or psycho killer like in american horrors, and therefore they dont scare you as much, you just want to see some cool bloody death scenes.

[cryptkeeper666]

Fd3. It scared the living shit out of me.

[XtRaVa]

Barbie in The Nutcracker. Simply terrifying.

[halloweenfreak1]

Barbie in The Nutcracker. Simply terrifying.
o my god your right:)

[SLAYERFAN]

Personally, the scariest fuckin' movies I've ever seen was Halloween H2O and House on Haunted Hill. I saw them when I was like 7 or 8 and I had to sleep with the covers on my head for 2 or 3 years no lie. Man, that part in Haunted Hill when the girl sees the people opperatiing through the camera and then they look at her and she turns around and sees the guy whos head is shaking and moving around all funny and then appears in front of her made me cry. Also the part in H2O when the guy got a skate in the face creeped me out big time.

[gracie]

To me I judge a good horror film by how much suspense it has and how much I am drawn in the fear the characters have. High Tension, Texas Chainsaw (original), HOTC and also alot of the Asian horror (and I don't mean The Story Of Ricky).

Then I have films that disturb me. Films like Irreversable and August Underground.

Then there is just a good fun gory horror film like 28 days, Dawn of the dead etc.

Then the classics like Argento and Fulci. Also films like Last House and I spit on your grave.

But please, no more shit rubbish indi horror like Children of the Dead and Cradle of Fear. No more handicam home mades please.

[Elvis_Christ]

I've been more disturbed by extremely graphic scenes rather than been scared while watching a movie.

The Exorcist on the big screen was pretty creepy especially the sound.

But like a lot of you guys have mentioned I think I've become desensitized. Hellraiser II and Suspiria scared the shit out of me when I was younger but its been a long time since I experienced more than the usual jumps something like say [REC] delivered.

[milktoaste]

*Yawn* it's a little early for wisdom sharing.

Ok, now is good.

I was actually pretty freaked out by Prince of Darkness the first time I saw it. I turned out all the lights and got stoned before hand. It was a good cold fear, and with such shitty cover art too. For a lesser known movie, I really like it.

[Miss_Murder]

Scariest movie ive seen so far... Well theres See No Evil , thats pretty scary.

[mrbelle]

I have never been scared at any movie. I have been watching since i was a baby and was told i would just stare at the tv and not move until the movie was done. I would love to be scared but since i am not i can scare the people watching with me lol

[milktoaste]

and was told i would just stare at the tv and not move until the movie was done.lol

That's creapy, were you medicated as a child? I've never met anyone who just stared at the TV like that, you know, unless there was something seriously wrong. When I was a baby movies scared the hell out of me, they didn't really even have to be all that scary.

[mrbelle]

no i was not medicated as a child. but i will say that i am not all there and i am sure i should be on meds now lol

[Elvis_Christ]

Oh well at least you like a great band like Destruction :D

[Haunted]

The Shining scared the shit out of me when I was little. It was those goddamn twins! I have to connect with the poster who said the extended Exorcist is creepy, but that's my favorite horror film of all time. There have been films that have disturbed me because of violence (not the cool kind of violence that we're used to, but something on a scale that could say, happen to you, any of you).

I mostly like films about ghosts and haunted places.

[roseyred]

The exorcist. This movie scared me to death! For months i had to sleep in my moms room. I watched it when i was like 11, im pretty sure thats to young to be watching such a horrific movie.

[Gory Artistic Maniac]

I think the movie that scared me the most was the Exercist. I still does, just that girl does.
I was also freaked out by the Blob (the 80s one not the first on).



Your Mother Sucks Cocks In Hell!

[dewaholic]

I think the movie that scared me the most was the Exercist. !


Really? I laughed all through that. I just thought it was funny. As for movies that really scare me. Hmm... Snakes on A Plane. I hate snakes and as I watched it through my fingers (yeah some parts were humorous and cheesy) I knew I was going to have realistic bad snake dreams a couple days later. I think I only did it to see if I'd have snake dreams. I did.

[Zero]

recently - i'd say high tension was pretty good - it had me going

[wtb2612]

Anyone have any good suggestions for really scary ghost/haunting movies? Those seem to be the only type that I still find the least bit scary. Doesn't matter if it's in English or not.

[psycho d]

As a kid jaws, Jaws scared the crap out of me. As an adult, i did not want to go home alone after watching The Ring (the American remake). That one creeped me out.

[Noah]

Going to go with The Blair Witch Project. I was 16 at the time of it's release - I made it a point to jump online and try to confirm that it wasn't "REAL" after all.

Even after doing so, I still went and saw it. It's the fear of the unknown, and (in my opinion) the very well done climax in the last 5 minutes or so of the flick. I didn't like the ending initially, but the more I thought about it and have viewed several times since, the more I love it.

[joshaube]

Won't lie. The Blair Witch Project. Gets me every time.

[Gucci_Mane]

Signs too! :eek:

This. When he sees the alien leg crawl into the crops it scared the crap out of me. On top of that, I was alone at midnight and there was a huge cornfield in the window right next to where I was laying. Ohhh dear. :eek:

[UngodlyWarlock]

You know what...the scariest movie for me isn't even scary to me anymore, but I stand by it 100%, despite all of the horror movies I have seen:

Event Horizon.

When I was 19, I worked in a movie theater in downtown Seattle. Often the booth guy would spool up movies the night before and run preview showings for employees and being that I had no class the next day, I said sure why not. First of all, I have to back up a little bit and say that up until the age of 18, I lived in the midwest (South Dakota and Kansas) so moving to Seattle and living downtown was a major thing for me. HUGE culture shock. Well staying at work to watch a movie that started at 1am, ended at about 3am and then walking home in the middle of the night in downtown seattle was already pretty scary.....but something about this movie just hit me to the core when it came out.

I sat in that huge theater, all by myself (except the booth guy who was upstairs) and then when it was over I left the abandoned multiplex thinking about all the corridor scares with the "ghost wife" in the movie scared out of my mind that I had to walk a mile and a half home.

I seriously ran my ass off and was home in about 5 minutes.

Awesome memory...and even though that movie doesn't actually scare me now, it's still one of my favorites. Sam Neill is the SHIT!

-D

[The Mothman]

[Freak_Of_Nature]

There really isnt any scary movies anymore. Directors and writers are going overboard with special effects etc. I think personally that the scariest movies are either Halloween (rob zombies remake is brillant! bring on number 2!) and Alfred Hitchcock movies. His movies may be old and outdated but they are still able to scare the shit out of people!!

Peace x

[twitchii]

Jurassic Park (not really in the horror genre)

the first time i saw it I was in like 2nd grade and about everything scared me when i was little (which eventually turned into a love of the genre). i couldn't watch any of the night scenes, which are about 70% of the whole movie. to this day i have trouble watching that one scene where the fat guy, Denis, get's taunted and killed by that ink-spitting dinosaur. i know really lame :p but that's childhood for u...

i do really love this movie now and consider it a perfect example of really movies from the 90's that didn't need a sh!t ton of CG to make a good movie (but i am sure that has sparked a huge debate on this forum...probably everytime they ruin a good movie with it (star wars anyone?))

[Vanilla.exe]

I saw Signs when it first came out in theaters. I was 12 or 13 and went to see it alone because my best friend and my little brother both chickened out and went to see XXX instead which was also out at the time. It scared me and I couldn't watch the parts with the aliens. It still scares me to this day. That's why whenever people ask me my favorite movie, I always say Signs. I love it. It's the only movie that's really scared me since I was very young.

Last summer my brother and I watched this kinda indie type thing, "Incident at Lake County" (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2110145479236650834), and the first time we watched it, I don't know why, but we thought it was real, so we were freaking out. Once you realize it's fake though, it loses it's charm.

[serdarot]

The Shining scared the shit out of me when I was little. It was those goddamn twins!

I have to agree about The Shining. The Twins, the Shower Lady, the Blood Elevator, the freaky costumed couple in that room, Jack Nicholson in the last act, all make for one scary film.

I also found Blair Witch disturbing by the sheer implication of it. I know many people don't like it because nothing is shown at all, but I found the characters to be realistic if unlikeable, and that ending with the incomprehensible hysterical screaming found me in a place of confusion and terror I haven't been to with any other movie.

Finally, Martyrs (2008) is the last film that left me totally wrecked. The fact that seemingly normal people are indeed capable of such monstrosities (there were a few similar cases in Europe last year), only makes the whole thing so terrifying.

Yeh feeling "wrecked" or somewhat sickened is strongest effect movies have on me these days.

[EatMySkorts]

The Exorcist is the queen mother of all horror films, as far as I'm concerned. Interestingly, I find the edited for TV version more frightening. Why? Because I felt like the profanity provided a sort of comedy relief. Without the hilarious "cocksucker" & "fuck me" lines, you're forced to take the movie much more seriously.

Halloween (the original, thank you very much) still makes me paranoid. I got to see it at the drive-in when it was released. I was 4 at the time, so my mother made me cover my eyes during certain scenes. LOL

The Shining is always creepy. There's just something about the whole mood of the film; the isolation aspect, the snow, the cinematography (bright red colors contrasting against bright whites; a common occurrence in Kubric films), the old woman in the bathtub, the blood pouring out of the elevators, etc.

Pumpkinhead had it's moments. Evil Dead (the first one) was certainly creepy.

I'm just glad I'm not as desensitized as so many other horror fans. I've been watching this stuff since I was a kid, but I still get creeped out. However, I've found that absolutely none of the new stuff (anything made after about 1989) scares me.

[_____V_____]

The Village.

The twist had me shaking in sheer fright.

[dendril]

I'm hard to please when it comes to being truly disturbed by a horror movie. I feel I need to do it myself, although I'm not sure I'll ever get close to making a movie.
Interestingly, one that creeped me out well enough was The Blair Witch project. It's because it was more "real" - so an independent movie with a more personal handheld feel might work.. it's being in the viewpoint of the character.

The part when they're in the tent and can hear Josh calling faintly in the distance.. that.... that was good.

I'm jumping in late, but I'd highly recommend:

The Orphanage
Shutter (Thai version...2004)
The Devils Backbone (2001)

and the classics:
The Uninvited (1944)
The Haunting (1963)
The Innocents (1961)
Carnival of Souls (1962)

[fortunato]

David Lynch is the only filmmaker to ever truly frighten me as an adult.

The worst of which was my first viewing of Inland Empire. I watched it in a dark basement at about 2 in the morning on a big TV with surround sound. I remember several scenes during which I felt a real, tangible sort of repulsion; a sensory assault that made me feel as if I should turn away or leave the room. How the man so perfectly and efficiently translates that indescribable nightmare fear and logic is so amazing to me.

Another scene I can think of is in Mulholland Dr., where the guy is describing his nightmare to his friend in the diner; about the man behind the diner. Ugh.

[stenchofdeath]

Scariest movies,

Quarantine
Dawn of the dead-remake

Yep, that Mulholland Dr. scene is frightening, and there's a particular scene in Inland Empire- the one where that woman is just violently vomiting on the street- it made me feel sick. I saw it at the Music Box and just felt like I needed to get out. The scraping sounds of the retching, the claustrophobia of the streets- yech! It haunts me.

Though I did not care for the film, I must say, but that's beside the point.

[N2NOther]

I've been watching horror movies my entire life. I used to watch the Hammer films when they aired on channel 5, and when I was younger my favourites were The Wolfman and Abott & Costello meet Frankenstein. The first truly scary movie I ever attempted to watch was JAWS when it debuted on channel 4, when I was 7. I had no clue what a shark was because I didn't live by the ocean and back then you weren't really exposed to them unless you did. I thought it was a monster movie like Godzilla or something. Boy, was I fucking wrong. I got as far as the first victim's head disappearing below the surface and I ran out of the room. I didn't watch the movie in it's entirety until I was 14.

That being said, and like I said I've been watching horror movies my whole life. I use this disclaimer so that you're aware that I've seen pretty much everything from The Haunting (original) and Don't Be Afraid of the Dark, to pretty much every modern horror movie. To say I'm jaded would be an understatement. Gore isn't enough for me to like a movie, though it does help, no, what I need is a movie that's so well crafted that it terrifies me to my very soul. So imagine my surprise that when I was 30, I saw a movie that did just that. I went into the theatre unassuming and completely not expecting to be so scared that to this day the movie gives me chills. That movie is The Ring. Yes THAT Ring. What scares each person is 1000000% subjective and that movie scared ths shit out of me.

Sorry for the super long post.

[The Mothman]

Another scene I can think of is in Mulholland Dr., where the guy is describing his nightmare to his friend in the diner; about the man behind the diner. Ugh.

yeah that was one of the most frightening scenes I've seen in years, along with the scene were the killer is discovered in the house in Twin Peaks:Fire Walk With Me.
The beginning of The Lost Highway was way creepy as well.

[fortunato]

There were many frightening scenes in the series, too. Like Cooper's and Ronette's dreams, and of course Bob!

Man, that clip is awesome!
I've never seen the show, I should check it out. I read only 6 episodes were directed by Lynch though.

It's all weird though. Lynch is even in a couple of episodes.

[fortunato]

Man, that clip is awesome!

Oh man, if you've never seen the show, then do yourself a favor and make some room in your schedule.

Lynch himself only directs a few episodes, but for the majority of the series he and co-creator Mark Frost hand-picked the creative staff, so the vision remains true to Lynch and Frost's original. Up until about halfway through the second season, it's completely brilliant. Then, due to network pressure and such, Lynch and Frost lost quite a bit of creative control, and for about 7 or 8 episodes the show gets pretty silly and unfocused. The real tragedy is that it starts to get great again right at the end (Lynch and Frost began to regain control), but right then it's over since it was canceled.

As a whole, though, it's truly a groundbreaking work of art. It's completely genre-less; at times absolutely horrifying, sometimes hilarious, and always engrossing. Personally, one of my top 5 favorite TV shows.

[Solar Storm]

Hm. Nothing that's terribly scary for me right now lol, but for really, REALLY disturbing fucked up shit then i guess for me: Visions of Suffering, Philosophy of a Knife, Nails, or Salo: the 120 Days of Sodom. Again not scary, but batt shit crazy mind-fuck movies lol.

You're being too kind.

It was good for 12 episodes. THEN Lynch made more... probably because he couldn't come up with a good enough ending fitting with his opium infumed mind. :rolleyes:

i gave up after the big dip - but before that my friends and i would religiously get together and watch it

[Darkside_of_man]

The organ playing in Carnival of Souls. I never knew how deeply affected I was by creepy music played on the organ. It's subliminal. It gets under my skin and takes hours to work its way out.

And the doctor that practices as a psychologist on the weekends, that scared me. Especially the way he grabs her and won't let go, "You've had a fright."

And the early 1960's small town America frightened me, the landlady and her extra baths, the bar scene, the minister, especially because they had a big ass abandoned carnival out on the outskirts of town. I mean what were they thinking ... that town was not full of characters that liked to enjoy themselves.

very creepy

Even though the quality unarguably dips/drops (this was definitely due to network pressure and a loss of creative control by Lynch and Frost, and the people left in charge had no idea what to do with the show with it being such a unique vision) after the Laura Palmer saga, I still think the world of Twin Peaks that was originally created is so interesting and enamoring that, despite those 8 or so bad episodes, it's still one of my top 5 favorite shows ever (I can forgive the bad episodes). I really think the quality returns big-time during those last three episodes, when Lynch and Frost were making their way back into the picture. You can see the mess that was made of the show slowly being crafted into something great, but by then it was too late. I bet that if the show hadn't been canceled, the third season would have been awesome.

did anyone here see the movie - i skipped it since i had lost interest in the series

Oh yeah. It's one of Lynch's best, in my opinion. A lot of people (especially fans of the show) didn't like because it's very, very different. Where the show was subtle and passive, the film is definitely aggressive. It also follows Lynch's nightmare logic storytelling much more than the program. I love it, though. I think it's an appropriate counterpoint to the show; the other side of the same coin. It's the story of Laura Palmer, and her story was so brutal, so steeped in darkness that this is really the only way to tell it.

[Elvis_Christ]

I'll have to pick that one up again sometime. Damn cool film.

[fortunato]

You know, Zero, you really should finish the series if you never did. Just work through those bad episodes because the last few of the show really pay off. It gives you a rounded view of the Twin Peaks world, and it even helps a little in appreciating those bad episodes (even though they are still a big mess).

Of course, be prepared for a real cliffhanger.

I'll have to pick that one up again sometime. Damn cool film.

Definitely do it. It's one of my favorite of Lynch's films. Did you ever get into the show?

Session 9 is the last thing to creep me out. However it was, in fact, 3 am with no lights on, home alone on a stormy night, blah blah. That last line really sticks to you though.

The sixth sense (I only seen it once...when I was 9 years old.) never watched it since, and other than that, any Halloween movie except for the original and/or the Rob Zombie Remake (which I just found to be plain awesome! ;p) Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers. That movie just plain scared me, Ohh and Halloween Resurrection.

So, pretty much every Halloween film scared you... huh. I didn't find these movies scary, just entertaining (sometimes funny even).

Leprechaun scared the bajezus outta me the only time I saw it (I was 7 or 8 yeards old) more than any other movie ever scared me.
More recently The Exorcist, that's some flat out freaky deaky sh**

I would have to say The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I was 5 and my sister was babysitting me. Her bf called and wanted to go to the drive-in. So, here i am, 5 and seeing that shit for the first time. I was so scared during the opening sequence, when the corpse mounted on the gravestone is shown, i jumped in the front seat between them and stayed there the whole movie. They threatened to leave several times unless i got back in the back, but i would have nothing to do with either idea. It's been my favorite ever since.
