scariest movie

scariest movie [+ favourites]

anybody ever really been scared by a movie? i've seen some horror flicks that i thought were very good, but never any that really scared me that i can recall. in my opinion, the scariest movie ever made was willie wonka (lol)--i just realized the other day that those umpa loompas used to scare the pants off me when i was like five, and i used to have nightmares about them and everything. no other movie ever effected me that much. anybody else have a similar experience with a movie?

"You are reading this."

Poltergeist. it is probably mostly due to the fact that i saw it when i was such a wee little lad, but i watched it just a few years ago again and it was very... disorienting... thats the only word i can really use. and when i found out that the little girl in the movie died... well that gave me the heebie jeebies too.

i think that movie made a lot of people have an absurd fear of mirrors for a good while.

The scariest movie I ever saw was the 1955 movie "Night of the Hunter" with Robert Mitchum and Shelly Winters. I had nightmares about that film for years. It was the first time I'd ever seen the 'love & hate' tatoos on someone's fingers and the idea of a minister being so evil in a time when we were all a lot less cynical and more trusting made it even worse. Monsters never scared me because monsters do what monsters do. When we show the 'monsters' inside humans, that is always scarier. You can't tell the good guys from the bad guys until it is too late.

Blairwitch Project scared me. I camp alot, and I have seen some wierd stuff way the heck out in the woods, in the middle of nowhere. Scary.

Jaws is another one.

"Spellcheck is for pussies. REAL women make mistakes."

I think it was the original House On Haunted Hill from 1959 that has scared me the most out of any movie, but I must have been 5 or 6 years old when I saw it. I could barely finish it.

squatteam - That's such a classic. I watched it in the day time not really thinking it was a scary movie, and that minister still creeped me out.

Silent Night Deadly Night scared the hell outta me when I first saw it, and Blair Witch project did too, I have to admit.
Aracniphobia(sp) and spider/bug movies like that tend to make me stay fully clothed when I sleep so that I don't get bit or crawled on.

Blair Witch made me throw up afterwards because i was so scared. Pure "fear" wise, it was the most gruesomely painful movie I have ever seen. I think I may have almost passed out. My girlfriend kept looking at me asking if I was okay, casually, smiling, whilst my innards were swallowing themselves trying to get rid of that horrible pain in my stomach.

The creepiest movie I have ever seen, which kept me up at night for a while and has always creeped me out is the Shining by Kubrick.

It was those fucking daughters... those two shitheels that kept showing up talking to danny.

Holy shit man.

They're going to appear right behind me right now...

"Decius, would you like to play with us?"

"DIE BITCHES DIE!!!"

"Hating everyone protects me from elitism."

LMAO @ Decius, calm down man, its okay there not really here, he he he. I know you mean though, the creepiest part to me was at the end....standing in the corner....

"I'd like to say something profound....."SOMETHING PROFOUND""

the sequal to the blair witch project totally threw, it was much scarier than the first, also the ring and texas chain saw masacres.. i couldnt actually get through the whole thing of texas chain saw masacres i had to skip it to the end to see the resolution.... also the exorsist isnt necesarily a scary movie but the concept of it certainly is

Cannibal Holocaust scared the shit out of me. it was not spooky just rilly gory

""to start press any key", "whers th"

but i have to admit Blair Witch was pretty scary just not unuff for the scaryst or eny thing

""to start press any key", "whers th"

for me it would probably be The Ring(1 and 2).i was paranoid for about a week after i saw each one.i would go to brush my teeth an i would bend over to spit and i was always scared that when i bent back up that Samara would be staring at me through the mirror......brrrr......

"Gentlemen? Bitch, I radiate chivalry!"

I saw American Werewolf in London when I was 9 years old and walked out of the movies and it scared me for weeks. I was also afraid of the original Jaws seeing it around the same age. Even on land I was afraid of that big shark.

As an adult no movie has ever sacred me.

Except Blair Witch.

Most people I know complained they didn't like the camera jerking around or that they didn't get what was so scary about it.

Perhaps its their lack of imagination that causes them to say this.

The movie doesn't go in for all out gore. Gore in movies is so not realistic anyway.

This movie did something that most movies dont.

It used the viewers own imagination to scare themselves. The imagination is always 1000 times scarier than the real thing. And the bigger the imagination- the bigger the fear when watching Blair Witch.

I watched it late one night by myself and was so afraid to go to sleep straight after. I felt like I was being watched. Like there was someone in the house with me.

It was that sense of being watched which really scared me. These poor suckers who you know are going to die, being prey for something impossible to fight against and slowly stalked and played with, then gruesomely killed.

Even to this day I feel as if Im being watched when I think of the movie.

I would like to watch it again because my memory of the film is slowly fading. But I want to go camping one of these days and it would be impossible to go out into the wilderness and pitch a tent with that feeling fresh in my mind.

Number two sucked. And showed just how originality and creativity is screwed over to get a few more tickets sold. It went totally mainstream and watered down. Like so many original films and/or directors that go big in Hollywood.
