I didn't find the first TCM to be scary at all. It was more exploitative than anything else, but I didn't find it scary.

[REC] had a few jump outta your seat moments (the ending is classic horror cinema) and The Grudge was creepy too.

That's a good point with the Exorcist... I think part of my problem is that I saw it and had HUGE expectations hearing about HOW HORRIFYING it was...
[REC] I've heard is pretty goddamn amazing, though I still need to see it...
And I second Elvis with The Grudge (personally I thought that the remake was better than the original)... Forgot to mention that it scared the HELL out of me when I saw it for the first time... Truth be told, I was living by myself and it kept me up all night. :o
Another foreign film with a few good scares is Shutter (the original)... It's a derivative Asian ghost story, but a really really GOOD derivation. Definitely worth a watch.
