Scariest movie ever? What is it

[Shockwave]

Like it says, what do you think is the scariest movie ever.

At least offer your own opinion!

Hrmm the movie that I remember being scariest when I first watched it would definately be the Exorcist. Granted I was 8 years old at the time.

I think the ring is very scary...

especially the last scene where the girl pops out of the tv...

ARGHHHHHHH

My opinion is skewed. When i was 6 or 7 my mom went out for the evening and left with with a babysitter. Well, said sitter decided to watch The Exorcist at like 9 at night while I was "asleep" on the couch.
Folks, The Exorcist is NOT something a kid at age 7 should watch.
So, I vote The Exorcist.

Hmm, that's a tough one. Nothing on the screen really scares me anymore so I would have a difficult time picking one.

Oh well, here goes...Phantom Menace. That's my pick for scariest movie EVAR!!!

Event Horizon is the scariest movie IMO.

The only movie I have ever seen that was even remotely scary was Candyman.

Poltergeist. I saw it on Halloween when I was really young. I was freaked out for the longest time that the tree outside my room was going to eat me.

I got pretty scared in Cabin Fever and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Hah, welcome to the 'Those who saw Exorcist when they were really young... causing all other movies to not be scary' club.

That's the problem. Nothing will ever compare to that experience and so I never get scared by anything anymore. I find myself looking for more plot-driven horror movies like Psycho, The Others, etc. nowadays.

come to think of it, its funny i am yet to see a single scary movie. i seen all of above mentioned except for even horizon, and it sounds like nothing but scary according to my roomate's impression on it . now i want some real scary stuff folks. any suggestions?

 

[Shockwave]

The Others was a FANTASTIC movie IMO. EXCELLENT plot twist at the end.

 

[yukichigai]

The new Dawn of the Dead was pretty good.

 

[Axon]

Yeah, Poltergeist was scary to me as a kid. Now it seems tame, as do all horror flicks.

I still hate clowns, though.

While not a scary movie, Fellowship of the Ring had what I thought was the most horror-filled moment I've ever seen on screen -- the unveiling of the Uruk-hai warrior underneath that sludge and mud. I remember feeling extremely... ummm... scared when he popped up and started attacking the orc.

I've always thought that movie was scary too.

I always thought, ?The Beast Within?, was the scariest movie that I have ever seen.
But then again I saw it when I was pretty little.
"Dawn of the Dead", was another movie I found to be very scary when I was little.

Not a bad choice, but mine is Arachnophobia.

14 years later, this movie STILL haunts me.

 

[MaxDepth]

Scariest movie, by far!

 

[TwiceOver]

In the Mouth of Madness. Yes Event Horizon is a close second for me. Both are Sam Neil movies.

 

[GasX]

Jaws or The Fallen

I think a reason that movie never really scared me, is because I'm not afraid of spiders. I always thought that movie was somewhat funny.

Showgirls...

Actually I was scared as a kid by "Trilogy of Terror", the third part, witht he little evil doll chasing the woman around her apartment. I was about 7 or 8, scared the hell out of me.

The spider scene in RoTK... granted I am arachnophobe....
