It's more of a comedy than a horror movie.

The Blair Witch Project scares me, I never watched it when it came out so the buzz wore off but I bought the dvd recently, saw it for the 1st time, alone, in the dark, volume up (like how creepy films are meant to be watched) and was pretty freaked.

It affected me as i used to go camping all the time, like every other weekend, or with the scouts or at school, etc, i love camping........the docu-film was just shot perfectly, it makes your brain work overtime.

I also think Texas chainsaw massacre is creepy because that kind of thing can and does happen, i hate rednecks......especially ones who keep their dead parents in the attic and weild axes around the house..
Also the modern colour version of Night of the Living Dead deserves a mention too, eeek

The Dark Crystal fucked me up when i was young too, had nightmares about that shit, weeeeeeeeird but great. I never liked elves, pixies and goblins, they freaked me out when i was young..

The scariest films are the psychological ones.

Thirteen Ghosts was a fucking embarrasment. I can't believe it was supposed to make people scared.... oOo:

I remeber seeing it when I was eleven, I turned it off when the girl appeared in the little tent, that scared me more than anything.

Thirteen Ghosts was more of a gore fest than geniounly scary, it was pretty cool when the lawyer was cut in half, and the one chick was crushed

lawyer in half was good, its just that ghosts always freak me out. the plot wsa pretty good...like i said, first time i saw it, i was scared...SciFi showed it a few days ago, and i was like...meh.

Jaws deserves to be number 1, it has had such an influence on the populace that even today, thirty years later, people are afraid of the ocean. The reason it was so scary is because it showcases one of mankinds true fears, getting eaten alive. The protagonists in the movie are faced with an animal that has no remorse and no fear, and yet they have to confront it in it's own environment where it has the distinct advantage. Watching it for the first time made you feel for the characters every time they were near the water. They don't know what's in the water, and neather do we when we go swimming in a lake or in the ocean. It's the sense of not being able to control our environment.

It is a movie yes, but the events that take place are based in reality.

No other movie has had that type of influence, which is why it deserves to be number 1.

There's an obscure scene in The Exorcist III that I still say is the scene that scared the shit out of me the worst.

Click on the first pic in the second row or the last pic in the whole series for a screenie of the scene: http://www.geocities.com/thehorrorhaven/exor3pic.html

From "Wikipedia" (couldn't have said it better myself):

"There is a prolonged, wide-angle shot of a corridor whilst a nurse goes about her rounds. After several minutes of uneventful silence, there is a false alarm when a harmless patient abruptly wakes up and scares the nurse.

Silence then reigns once again and the nurse checks the other patients. A security guard who sits in the corridor is summoned by someone and leaves, falsely suggesting to the viewer that events will follow him. Instead, the camera remains fixed down the corridor as the nurse goes through the motions of checking her charges are all okay. The scene has by now lasted several minutes.

Just as the viewer is probably getting bored, the camera shot zooms in on the unsuspecting nurse crossing the corridor whilst a mysterious figure - draped in a blanket and holding out a pair of amputation sheers - strides after her, ready to slice off her head. Immediately, the film jumps the following morning when a morose Kinderman is being informed that the unfortunate nurse has been found dead. She was decapitated, slit open, her intestines torn out and then her body stuffed with Rosary Beads."

Honest to God, just thinking about that scene gives me goosebumps. ed:

Yikes, I hate those types of scares - Sounds fucking scary, might check it out.
Spider walk in the first one scared the shit out of me, but for some reason I was laughing out loud at "FUCK ME JESUS" with the crucifix, and "YOUR MOTHER SUCKS COCKS IN HELL," that was simply....Unbeatable.

Stephen King's 'It,' probably fucked with me the most out of any film I remember as a child. I was scared to hell and back after that....

You though Thirteen Ghosts was a joke? Watch Ghost Ship.

wallbash:

I've only seen a few horrors and I hated all of them.

Ghost Ship was cool when everyone got dismemberd by that wire.

[Jin-Roh]

The Grudge wasn't that scary, but there were some pretty freaky things that got me, like when she's in the office building being chased around, another is the little asian kid watching from outside the elavator.

It would scare me to find some crazy looking person behind me and I don't know anything of it. =\

Yeah, that was actually a really cool scene, I like those types of kills, like in Resident Evil when that guy is jumping around dodging the lasers, and then they glide across in a mesh form and slice his ass up....Cool effects...

Neither of those movies were scary though, but gore effects are fucking cool - That's why I like zombie movies alot, especially Romero ones and anything Savini is involved in is usually pretty buzzy as well.

Another classic, 'frightening-but-cool' scene is the initial highway crash scene in Final Destination 2, that was great...

Yeah... definitely.

Final Destination is more of an Action flick than horror..still good movie though.
