I love scary movies, but I never want to see them by myself . My favorite scary movie is "The Exorcist" , but since I'm such a fraidy cat I only watch it like once a year. What are your favorite scary movies?

Halloween.

I never got into The Exorcist, surprisingly. Maybe it helps if you're religious, which I am not.

Hmm:


I've always found "The Panama Deception" to be the scariest film ever made. Maybe because it was a documentary.

Ringu - watch the japanese original!

Exorcist 3 was pretty scary.

Halloween is very scary, but I've watched it so much over the years that it has lost some of it's intensity .

Poltergeist

Men Behind The Sun

I have yet to find a horror film that does not lose its intensity once you know how it plays out.

VoicesCarry said:

Very true .

What's this one about?

oh, and Jacob's Ladder, also Honogurai Mizu no Soko Kara (Japanese original, not the shitty American re-make)

GaryTheNoTrashCougar said:

You sicko!

...and no - I've never watched it but I know all about it!

Torture .

Even though I love Halloween....movies like Seven used to give me chills moreso than Halloween. Those psychological thrillers are just more realistic....not to take anything away from horrors because I love horrors more than anything.

I just added it to my netflix queue! sounds delicious!

I thought Wolf Creek was pretty scary.

nurse said:

A real cat is eaten alive by purposely-starved rats in that movie. A real cat.

You know what I'm a dog lover-hate 's.

Oh my gosh. You win.

Justin1972UK said:

That scene was uncalled for.

Same here, I find them more disturbing. I do love horror films too.

I certainly hope the proper authorities were notified. If that's true, that is so beyond sick I can't even comprehend.

These films are actually titled Tool In A Bubble and Tool Box

VoicesCarry said:

oh, I thought the second one was The Podfather.

oh god, y'all are silly. His hands and feet after he came from the water did look like something from a horror movie. I can't get over that, they just looked inhuman

Is Fiona credited with driving David Blaine crazy -- or did his strangeness pre-date their dating?

GaryTheNoTrashCougar said:

I don't consider stuff like that true horror material. I classify it along with kiddie porn.

VoicesCarry said:

I'm surprised it's actually on Amzon.com
