    My list below are the ones that actually scared me while watching, as opposed to just my favourite horror/scary movies...

    1. The Ring (those scenes when the camera zooms in real fast on those messed up scream faces)
    2. Paranormal Activity (the suspense that movie builds is intense)
    3. Nightmare on Elm Street 3 - Dream Warriors (I was 12 when I saw that for the first time, and it scared the hell out of me. When Freddy "puppet-walked" that guy of the roof got to me)
    4. The Amityville Horror (two words that haunt me to this day - "Get Out")
    5. Halloween (The menancing Michael Myers who just keeps on coming - and one of the scariest music scores I've ever heard)

    Were you able to make it through it? haha. Not because of the scary, but because of the corny.
    There's one hole in every revolution, large or small. And it's one word long.. people. No matter how big the idea they all stand under, people are small and weak and cheap and frightened. It's people that kill every revolution.

    Chris, I liked it a lot! It isn't maybe much of a movie, but it has this nostalgic, sentimental value, being a perfect '70s family horror I appreciate greatly. I really really enjoyed it - and yes, some parts did, quite unexpectedly, seem scary. I don't think I will be very eager to recollect the Tall Man standing at the head of the bed when I am alone at night.

    I'm wanting to think on this awhile. I want to stick strictly to the creepy and unnerving side of things.

    Yeah, it's one thing for me not to post my list, as a man who really hasn't watched that much horror outside of Who, but it's another for you not to post a list, Brice. Post, darn you!
    Never be cruel and never be cowardly. And if you ever are, always make amends.

    You are a walking talking Doctor Who encyclopedia to me.

    Hmmm, I missed this thread the first time. I agree that the "best" horror movie might not be the scariest. Is The Sixth Sense a horror movie? Probably not. And it's not particularly scary, except for a couple of jump scenes. But it is a great movie. Same goes for Jacob's Ladder. Is it a horror movie? I don't know, but it's a 5-star film for sure.

    But the true "horror" movies that had me chewing on my knuckles the most would be (in no particular order):

    The Omen
    The Thing (1982)
    A Tale of Two Sisters
    Ju-on
    Hereditary
    A Nightmare on Elm Street (the original, before delving into self-parody)
    Scream
    Opera or Suspiria (got to give Argento some reps)

    And a special mention to the 1977 Japanese movie House. There are no words to describe this film.
