Here's a chance to vote for the movie that scared you the most - only one vote per person. We're all different -Babs recently posted that she laughed all the way through the Exorcist. Someone else recently told me that The Shining was clearly the scariest movie of all time. So let's see what the Forum chooses.
I had a hard time whittling this down to only 9 movies to call out in the poll. I opted for the classics -nothing in the last 15 years. And I didn't include The Poltergeist and a dozen other worthy films. So, if you think the scariest film is not on the list, let us know in your comments. And if you want to rank order your top 5 or 10, please educate us!

I just recently saw The Shining in its entirety for the first time. I knew about "Here's Johnny," the twins, and redrum, but despite Jack Nicholson's over-the-top performance, there were still some parts that were freaky and emotionally manipulative. So kudos to Kubrick et al for that.
I was probably scared most by Salem's Lot, despite it being a TV movie, but I was only 9 at the time.

I think the scariest movie I ever saw was Re-Animator in the mid 1980s.
A trailer to a movie called The Night Walker scared the piss out of me as a kid, and gave me nightmares for weeks. I finally watched the film this year on Svengoli and the horrifying scene was just a dream sequence.

From this list, The Ring. Scared the crap out of me.
Exorcist didn't even faze me. I thought it was pretty forgettable, to be honest.
The Shining is super-creepy, but not necessarily "scary."
Texas Chainsaw, Nightmare, Living Dead, Halloween, and Hellraiser are more gore/slasher films to me. A couple of jump scares, but mostly just body counts.
Alien I would say is mostly suspense.

I’m a huge horror fan.
I was 12 years old when the 2003 Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake came out, and watched it at a friend’s house. It scared the hell out of me at the time.
The scary part of Texas Chainsaw massacre compared to other Slasher films is that the plot is completly plausable (for the most part). There’s nothing supernatural going on, just an F’d up guy with a chainsaw wearing a mask made of human skin.
Micheal Myers in Halloween is so scary because, unlike every other slasher, he has no reason or childhood trauma that led him being a serial killer. He’s just pure evil.

I like the older horror b movies, But Halloween was pretty scary.

I haven't heard anyone mention that movie in a looooooooooong time. I thought it was great. The Bride of the Re-animator and From Beyond too. The Re-Animator didn't scare me that much because it was so over the top. I took it to be a humorous parody of a horror film. I need to watch them all again.
Anyway, I highly recommend this movie for anyone who isn't bothered by a little, okay, a lot, of blood. The plot is a medical school student creates a serum that brings the dead back to life. Let's just say a major character is a severed head in a pan of blood, kept alive by regular injections.

I avoid horror movies for the most part. I have no appreciation for gore.
I went with "other", because none of those listed ended up in my nightmares. Some that did:
Psycho
Poltergeist
Some Shirley Jackson movie, might have been The Lottery story retitled, where people were chosen at random to be crushed under a door loaded with rocks. Vivid image from the victim's POV for years.
Silence of the Lambs.
Body Double, with the big drill maimings (shudder).
Ok, slamming the door to that part of the brain.

Using that criteria, Deliverance could make a reasonable case as scariest (but might not qualify as Horror).
Although I like a good horror movie, I didn't start watching them until I was too old to be scared by them. Best horror movie I've seen has been The Descent. Another good one from recent years that I liked was Cabin in the Woods
Generally for these types of movies, I just stick to reading the plot summary from Wikipedia page -- usually get as much out of that as actually spending the two hours to watch it. Some good ones recently have been Hereditary and The Orphan. Cannibal Holocaust is one of the best classics.
A Serbian Film is listed as Thriller on Wikipedia and Horror on Rotten Tomatoes. But that is a movie no one should ever watch.

Yeah, point well taken. By that rating, krystalnaccht (spelling definitely off) is tops by far. Documentary put together by Elie Weisel and others of Nazi films of gathering up people in the neighborhoods and putting them in showers, ovens, or mass graves. Saw it in comparative religion class, threw up at my desk.

Exorcist for me.
A big factor with these is probably how old you were when you saw the film. I was young enough that I still thought it was possible for the events of the film to be at least sort of true.
I even read a few books about "true" cases in the years following.
Now I know that there is nothing to fear from demons and devils. All we have to fear is fear itself. And lizard men from other dimensions using hypnosis to turn the bigfoots against us.

Excellent choices. Cabin is what the kids would call meta. If you don't like that sort of stuff, it's still good but will lose something.
The descent is just awesome.

I voted for Night of the Living Dead. Released October 1968, several years before any other films listed for the survey. Released before MPAA ratings, so kids of any age could get in.
Audiences expecting to see delightfully scary film were stunned. The level of gore was unprecedented in previous horror flicks. The setting wasn’t some alien world, it was our own countryside. The fiends weren’t aliens, they were our neighbors, reanimated from the dead. The plot device that radiation caused the reanimation was vaguely plausible at a time when we were practicing “duck and cover” in school for nuclear attacks and people were digging bomb shelters in their front lawns. The film was the first in the zombie genre of films, although they were called flesh-eating ghouls instead of zombies. All characters essential to the plot die, an unexpected nihilistic twist.
Made on a $114,000 budget, Preserved in the National Film Registry. Definitely took me outside my comfort zone when I saw it.

I enjoyed the Jeffery Combs movies like Re-animator. From Beyond was an interesting plot, but mostly my 21-yr-old self liked Barbara Crampton's nude scenes; quite nice in 1984. I keep my eye out to see them again, but never see them turn up on HBO or Netflix. I'd like to see Looker, Liquid Sky and Kids again too, but never see them available. Serbian Film gets mentioned on reddit a lot, but I've never see it offered anywhere. Where do people see these films? lol
The Shining was great due to Kubrick alone, not because of Nicholson's over-the-top portrayal. The whole "Here's Johnny" crap and the ending in the maze was a let down. Direction was great, twins were great.
Loved The Ring, with the horse suiciding off the ferry particularly creepy. The premise was intriguing, and if you can get through the first silly 10 minutes or so, the rest is really well done I thought. The kid saying "It's a conundrum" in the car was worth the price of admission by itself. Smart kid.
I saw Night of the Living Dead at the midnight movie in 1980 or so. Ending was quite the twist for its time. Loved the campiness of the sequel Day of the Dead in 1985 at the mall. HI-larious. Soundtrack was campy. I can still hear it in my head, but haven't seen it in 30 years. I did enjoy the Tx Chainsaw though, when I saw it at the midnight movie in 1980 or so, but teen slasher films like Nightmare on Elm Street or Scream are just silly to me. Jump-scares are lazy film-making.
The idea of a puzzlebox to the beyond in the first Hellraiser was nice.

Here's a list of my top 10 scariest movies -a personal list which probably depends upon when and how I saw them:
1. The Exorcist
2. The Ring
3. The Shining
4. Night of the Living Dead -1st movie where victims sprinted at full speed
5. Hellraiser
6. Evil Dead 2
7. The Poltergeist
8. Blair Witch Project
9. Texas Chainsaw Massacre
10. The Birds
Special mention to:
When a Stranger Calls - scariest opening 17 minutes, the rest is garbage
It, The Terror From Beyond Space -the movie on which Alien is based, it terrified me as a child
Pet Sematary -a movie that is horrifying without being very scary
Psycho - scariest Reveal at end of movie - of the "Mom"
Alien - scariest appearance of monster ever
Jaws - most iconic scary music
Brain Dead -most surprising tie-in to another movie (King Kong)
The Fly (the Original) - most iconic quote: "Help me! Help Me!"
From Dawn to Dusk - weirdest mashup of two genres
Suspiria - artfully done

It's basically an homage to that era of Peter Jackson. Really well done, and from New Zealand to boot.

We're talking about the U.S. version of The Ring, right? I saw that in the theater with friends. Fun, scary movie! The original Japanese version is supposedly much scarier.
I saw The Blair Witch Project in the theater, which is the best place to see it. Very disorienting with the shaky camera. The premise makes it feel real. Scary in the emotionally manipulative sense!

I also enjoyed "From Dusk to Dawn" but wouldn't classify it as very scary. Cool, to be sure, but not super-scary.
No one has mentioned "An American Werewolf in London". CLASSIC.
Also, how about "Wolfen" ?
Mrs. Q would nominate "Jacobs Ladder". She says the scene on the bus reminds her of a bus ride we took in Las Vegas once upon a time many years ago. Hmmmmmmm......

Yes, I was referring to the U.S. version of The Ring. I've seen the Japanese version and thought the US version was better and scarier. I've also recently seen the US version ranked in Top 50 lists for scary movies, but not the Japanese version.
I saw The Blair Witch Project on TV in a hotel room and it still was effective. I agree - it is the realism of the presentation that causes the viewer to react so strongly to small things.

It is basically Halloween 2.2 I guess. In other words it is a sequel to the first film, but it is like none of the other films happened.
I might see overlord tonight.

I thought his latest was Split? After some thought I assume, he was talking about Glass. I think I will be disappointed in Glass for some reason.Quote: NathanQuote: AxelWolfI like most all of his stuff. What's the name of the new movie?Quote: gordonm888Quote: AxelWolfI really enjoyed
The Others
it had a good twist. I think its a must-see.
And the Village
another must-see, in my book.
I liked both of those. Also, The Visit - the latest Night Shymalin movie which is his best in a long time. Really creepy.
His latest movie is called The Visit. :)
Its all tied into Unbreakable (another one of my favorite movies) I had no clue that was the case untill the very end of Split.

I love horror movies. However, I can't really think of any that truly "scared" me. Maybe The Blair Witch Project? What you can't see is usually more scary than some monster or gore fest.

Ha.... yeah, that's a good one. Not many horror movies were coming out in the 90's, so that one really stands out. It feels like a 70's horror film, storywise, but made in the 90's, but it works. Don't know if that makes sense... haha....
My favorite Shyamalan film is Signs. Super-creepy. Lots of subtext and symbolism.

Quote: TigerWuGuys, if you liked Dead Alive/Brain Dead, you need to see Deathgasm.
It's basically an homage to that era of Peter Jackson. Really well done, and from New Zealand to boot.
I watched Deathgasm last night on Prime. It was okay, and fun but didn't live up to the hype, in my opinion. A good movie where DA is a classic.
The difference between fiction and reality is that fiction is supposed to make sense.

Waking up in bed with Trump sounds horrifying.
There's no secret. Just know what you're talking about before you open your mouth.

I grew up in the 90s so thats prob why that movie stands out in my head. There's supposed to be a 3rd Cloverfield movie that came out recently that has a similar storyline. I liked the 2nd Cloverfield movie because it was psychologically scary.
If you haven't seen the 2nd Cloverfield. Basically this mom and daughter wake up in this guys (played by John goodman) underground bunker. He claims he saved them and was keeping them safe from something going on outside (I don't remember if he actually says it was aliens).
So imagine if you are the mom and daughter and what's going through their head. Is this guy a nut job that kidnapped us and keeping us in his dungeon or did he actually save us and is keeping us safe?

I saw that third Cloverfield movie. It was on Netflix for a while.... may still be.
Honestly it was kind of dumb; didn't really make sense, but I still thought it was fun. Nowhere near as good as the other Cloverfield movies or Event Horizon, but if you're into weird space-horror movies I think it's at least worth a watch.

Parts of that were definitely very suspenseful and therefore scary !Quote: TigerWuMy favorite Shyamalan film is Signs. Super-creepy. Lots of subtext and symbolism.
There's emptiness behind their eyes
There's dust in all their hearts
They just want to steal us all and take us all apart
