What do you think is the scariest movie of all time is? I know that voodoo thinks it's The Grudge ( that was pretty nuts, especially the part when that chick was in the video in the hospital) but I think The Exorcist was the most nuts.

 

Yeah I liked the Exorcist to, I grade "scary" on wot I saw growing up. The 1st movie that scared the crap out of me, was a black & white movie called "Them" about giant ants, mind you I was only a kid then, next movie was Jason & the Argonauts & The Thing. But I've found that a lot of movies are pretty obvious & are just plain horror movies, I like a good ghost type story, that builds slowly & then scares the buggery out of you when you least expect it. Every culture on earth has ghost stories & I guess we have a subconscious fear already there for the priming. (I lived in a house with my parents when I was 10, never got got a decent nights sleep for the two years we lived there, experienced some stuff there that still freaks me out, so I know wot I'm talking about). My favourite movie in that genre is "The Innocents" with Deborah Kerr.
The Exorcist certainly pushed a few panic buttons though.

 

Event Horizon made me want to kill myself

 

Home alone... I s**t myself the first seven times I watched it[8D]

Honestly, I'm one of those people in the back row of the theatre laughing my a** off during scary movies... all the modern movies in the horror genre rely solely on the surprise factor... which gets old after about 5 minutes. Well, there's a teenage girl in her house alone at midnight and she just noticed the back door is hanging wide open... I wonder what's going to happen? There's no possible way an escaped psycho with a can opener might kill her!

 

I was scared by "The Grudge", but I have to give it to "The Exorcist" and a close second is the original "Night of the Living Dead".

 

Don't really get scared by movies now, just a thrill. But when I was younger the scariest movie ever was "Ernest Scared Stupid". Those damn trolls creeped me out.

 

Good movie. When I rented that movie I thought is was a sci-fi "adventure"............um......nope.

The body hanging by all the tiny hooks got me.

 

Make that 2 for Event Horizon

 

That was a scary period in history...

^^^ Nirvarna...SNL 1992




Scary movies are scariest when you're a kid...The Thing was *****-out frightening, and I literally walked out of Pet Cemetary...seems silly now, but I was poop-free by the middle of the movie...

 

May sound strange but when I was little I was scared of charlie and the chocolate factory. I mean you have kids drowning in chocolate rivers and people turning into giant blueberries and ppl floating up almost getting sucked into the giant fans...
