Nothing like a good ghost story. The Changling, The Eye [asian horror ] ,The Legend of Hell House, to name a few.

House on Haunted Hill was not a very good movie, but it was pretty freaky. Poltergeist is a classic.

What lies beneath was surprisingly good. The ghost at the end scared the shit out of me. i didnt expect her to be quite that scary.

The ring is technically a ghost story. i think.

I LOVE ghost movies...but unfortunately most of the good ones have already been named, which just shows how few there really are. My favorites of the stuff previously mentioned: Devil's Backbone, The Innocents, The Haunting (original), The Others, and The Changeling.

Some other ghost stuff I like: Haunted (the Kate Beckinsale movie), The Lady in White, and The Tomb of Ligeia.

Have you read Pharos by Alice Thompson? It's a great classic-style ghost story.

The Ghost (1963) Barbara Steele A goddamn exellent movie! :D
The changeling
The entity
Dark night of the scarecrow (if this counts as a ghost movie, it should. But still one of the scariest movies ever made :eek: )

I have written this one down, what is it about?

After one of their friends commits suicide, strange things begin happening to a group of young Tokyo residents. One of them sees visions of his dead friend in the shadows on the wall, while another's computer keeps showing strange, ghostly images. Is their friend trying to contact them from beyond the grave, or is there something much more sinister going on?
from IMDB. It's on a much larger scale than it sounds, the last part borders on apocalyptic

You'll have to get it off Ebay unless you've got a region free DVD player

assuming you are using something like powerdvd or windvd, there is software that blocks the region changing info going back to the drive. so you get to watch dvd from all the regions without your drive "locking" into a specific region.
