It will always be The Exorcist for me. Saw it in the theater when it was released. I was about 13. Slept with the light on for weeks. Kept waiting for my bed to start shaking. LOL

To this day, I can't watch it. Scares the crap out of me.

The part that makes me cringe every time in the part where they're drawing blood from her. I'm not afraid of needles or blood until it comes to your neck ._.

Oh god, yes!!!

When I was about 6 years old my brother let me watch "Rawhead Rex" and that gave me nightmares for a week. I watched it again sometime in my 20's and the effect was not the same...lol.

I haven't really had many movies really "scare" me. Certain atmosphere's are creepy but it's not really "scary" per say. Sinister was a more recent one that I found creepy. The story not so much, just the atmosphere.

Jump scenes if they are well done will make me jump, but they don't "scare" me. Brutal scenes like seeing someones leg snap, just make me think "ouch".

Now that you're an adult, if watching The Exorcist late at night by yourself doesn't scare you at all, yer out of luck. Although some people get scared reading scary books.

I figured I'd make a list of some scenes from movies that really make me cringe or scared (because the movies themselves aren't very scary, but I wanted to give them credit):

hobbling scene from Misery
torture scene from Audition
brain eating scene from Hannibal
chestburster scene from Alien
c-section from Prometheus
grave scene from Carrie
Kirsty opening the puzzle box from Hellraiser
Michael Myers with the sheet over himself from Halloween
night 30 from Paranormal Activity
Sloth scene from Se7en
decapitation scene from High Tension
ending of The Blair Witch Project

The Evil Dead and The Shining both got me at an early age on VHS.

At the theater, it was probably...


Love that flick, esp. the ending.

Now it's The Descent. The video in my signature can explain why.

I'm so glad someone else has seen this movie. I swear some people think I made it up. lol Interesting enough, though, the original story by Clive Barker (can find it in the first volume of his Books of Blood) is actually not bad! How one thing turns into another, I'll never know.

Scariest movie I've ever seen?

It's still the original Halloween. It still creeps me out and puts me on edge every single time.

I expect to be bullied for this one ::big grin:: But I was "traumatized" by "It Came From Outer Space", which I was forced to watch at around 4 years old. I've had nightmares about it all my life!

I have re-watched it a few times as an adult, but every time I am absolutely terrified ::big grin::
