what horror flick has scared you the most

[granitemonkey]

Hmmm, I have always thought Phantasm was kind of creepy. The Tallman is enough to creep anyone out.

Recently i was scared by Tesis (Thesis) A great spanish horror thriller. Check this out if you can its great.

Poltergeist did it for me when I was younger.

Nowadays I don't have one specific one, but here are some that freaked me out a bit:

(Anything with Freddy Kreuger, to start out with.)

The Ring (and Ringu)

The Eye

Audition

Last House on the Left


Has anyone ever listened to the commentary on the LHotL DVD? Both film-makers seem to kick themselves for making this, and seem to think it is trash, but I really liked it. It got down to that basest level of humanity and just how scary it can be. The same goes with Audition, though I'm still scratching my head about that one. But the girl in that one was one sadistic f*ck, at any rate.

First off The Grudge was awesome .... I thought...I have yet to find a movie that scares me... When I was younger my reply would have been Barney.. a purple dinosaur that sings...something is just not right there...would scare anyone I would think... Actually, alot of kids shows are twisted as hell no wonder they have issues;) ... At least we can still rely on good horror flicks to set them straight:p hehehe

when i was little, i watched in the dark with head phones on, so not to wake the entire house, Hell Night with Linda Blair. Scared the shit out of me.

nothing scares me now ... well apart from spiders.

:eek:

That may be true, but I also just saw the trailer, and there are at least two parts that were identical to the original.

Yeah, I just saw the trailer before "Resident Evil: Apocalypse", looks like its going to be one big part remake, but it should be interesting. I don't know how well the "Ju-on" format is going to play for American audiences. They're well made, but the plots don't ever seem to really go anywhere.

"As a child"? Fuck, I was a teenager when "It" was shown.

the only movie to really freak me out was arcniphobia, i know that it wasnt scary but it freaked me out for a few days about spiders. but no horror movie has scared me really bad. maybe a few spots in the films made me jump but none really scared me

I would agree the Exorcist still holds up years after it was made for chills, but Hollywood be warned the Japanese are coming - have a look at The Tale Of 2 Sisters for some good jump out of your seats moments and for sheer creepy atmosphere it has to be Dark Water (a great homage to Don't look now) and lastly for sheer gruesome and violent horror Audition - this film actually made me squirm and I had to look away from some of the torture scenes painfully brilliant filmmaking.
