Oh, and Signs scared the begeezus out of me. If you haven't seen it, get it. Not a horror movie, but scary none the less. :)

Yeah, the first Chucky was good.

Also, Stephen King's "It" is one scary flick. I remember watching it when I was like 12 years old and goddamn, it left permanent scars on me, I literally couldn't sleep for few nights :)

I miss being scared that much :(

Another good oldie is John Carpenter's "The Thing".

Well to be honest, there's nothing scary about any movie... last time I was scared by a movie was when I was a kid.

But Session 9 was definetly a positive suprise. Nicely written & shot portrayal of one man losing his sanity. Psychological horror, my favorite :)

Yeah, it's hard to find a really scary movie anymore. Usually it's just something jumping out at you & you get startled for a second.

John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness always gives me the creeps.
Rosemary's Baby hasn't been mentioned.
The Dead of Night, i think was the name, an old B&W movie was pretty good too.

Yep.. and that has absolutely nothing to do with "being scared", something many "horror" writers & directors have yet to figure out. A cat jumping out of a closet IS NOT SCARY :)
