Make sure you guys giving a 1 to One Missed Call aren't getting it confused with the shitty Hollywood remake!!

I did not realize that, so I will change my vote to have not seen.

My vote was for the original - but keep in mind that we can't all be scared by the same stuff :) In general (but definitely with exceptions), Asian Horror really doesn't work for me as "scary movies", but I enjoy some of them anyway for the good movies that they are. My votes in this thread are only for the spookiness, not for the quality :)

Can't vote on these, but I just saw House on Haunted Hill (99), would rate it a 1

Scare-O-Meter scores (out of 5)

The Devil's Backbone (based on 4 ratings) - 3.5
One Missed Call (based on 5 ratings) - 3.2
[°REC] (based on 7 ratings) - 4.8

Move over The Haunting, we have a NEW #1 up in the Scary Movie Ranks. It's the contemporary found-footage masterpiece from Spain, which has gathered an astounding 34 points out of a possible 35. That's almost a perfect 5 score!!

The other two post-2000 scarefests score solidly as well. All 3 films are added to the opening post.
