Blair Witch Project - people saw it in the cinema and told me it was pish and not to watch it. Watched it on TV few years later and absolutely shit myself. I think you have to be able to put yourself in that situation. It's fucking horrible. I'm never camping in the woods again.
Exorcist - didn't scare me whilst I watched it, but thinking about it afterwards really creeped me out. Very psychological.
Texas Chainsaw Massacre - original obviously. This one probably scarred me for life. Leatherface has to be one of the most frightening figures in horror movie history. So clumsy and awkward, but relentless in his pursuit to massacre those poor teens. Just remembering the scene when he comes out of that doorway and bludgeons the guy on the head. Fucking hell.
ETA: haven't seen The Descent yet but have heard very good things so will investigate.
Sorry?
long time dead?
I agree with every film mentioned (aside from Long Time Dead which had one great scene in it where the girl is killed in the bathroom cubicle...wonderful shot) but still i dont think theres that many genuinely scary films out there......think about it when your listing them, did they make you wanna cry to your mummy?...
The modern remake of the Ring is wanko. The original Japanese one is really scary.
1.why did her mother kill her?
2.because we now know what happened to the young girl why is climbing out of the tv?
LOL im such a dunce some times. i asked my boyfriend he just laughed (which means he doesn't quite get it either!)
Because she was a retard I think.
The curse still wasn't broken.
The only way to escape the curse is to show the tape to someone else before the 7 days pass.
BTW, "Ring 2" is pretty good, but it has nothing at all to do with the original "Ringu" trilogy. Do find the japanese ones ASAP!
The only film that remotely scared me was The Poltergeist when I was younger.
Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer
Audition
I take that back. I watched a Faces of Death thing when I was probably 9. Scared the shit out of me.
Haha, Ghost Ship was a terrible film. My flatmate last year had it on DVD :crazyeyes:. But I can understand the motivation behind turning it off early, the first five minutes were by far the scariest part of the film (and pretty gory too). The rest of it wasn't even mildly thrilling
Audition was very freaky, but I was too busy being confused by what was real and what was being imagined to be "scared", as such.
What a let down. It was good like, but not scary.
I like horrors but dont find any particularly frighten me. I thought The Shining was quite scary though. The one thats made me jump the most is The Grudge.
And, has anyone seen the documentary/film about Ed Gein?? Now that makes ya think coz it was real.
He's the guy that inspired the makers of Psycho, Texas Chainsaw and Silence of the Lambs. (Basically he lost the plot when his mum died, he killed a few women and dug up peoples graves so that he could make himself 'outfits' from the bodies. He had jars of ears, tubs of noses, wigs, faces, he wore breasts etc etc)
Yeah agree because well i was scared but i didnt get it really and the only thing i was worried about was about dat girl lol
Switchblade Romance is pretty scary... I guess.
I hated Saw and Saw 2, I thought they were disgusting.
I don't trust much that comes out from Hollywood anymore... Anything involving ghosts (apart from 13 Ghosts which was funny), "Satanism" or psychopaths that's American I won't bother.
One horror film I love is the Wickerman, it's funny as hell.
