Scary Movies

The only movie that I saw that really scared me was "The House Of Wax." My Older sister took me to see it when I was only about 8yrs old. By the end of the movie I was sitting on her lap with my eyes closed. I can't remember another movie scaring me that much.

Exorsist was the most scariest I saw as a teen......

Now the scariest are the ones like Hostel.. or Saw.

I can not bare to watch people being tied up and tortured.

I refuse to watch...it takes my breath away...
 

Yes, this old movie Scarecrows. Somewhere, a long time ago, on a farm, these scarecrows came to life and turned visitors into scarecrows, or something like that. Really creepy.
 
Slasher flicks can be plain gross. Psychological terror is more frightening. The Hitcher and The Hostel are examples of both violence and psycho terror.
 
One of my very favorites has always been John Carpenter's The Fog. Starred Adrienne Barbaeu,, A young Jamie Lee Curtis and Hal Holbrook. I liked the fact it was scary without using gore and blood. Just messed with your head.

 
I recall the movie The Tingler some time in the 50's or early 60's. The ad campaign made it out ot be the most frightening fil ever made and it was convincing. When the film hit the theaters the "Tingler" turned out to be a rubber sea water looking thing that was pulled by a string across floors. It has to be the biggest disappointment ever and the lowest budget for a scary(?) creature ever. Google it and you will see why.

Welcome Cyrob19,

Yes The Exorcist is iconic but scared me out of my wits!

The Thing... I've heard from several people , all male that it was very scary. Is that the one where it starts out in a fog or a mist or frozen? If so, I couldn't get into it. Maybe I'll try again, when I have company.

"The Thing From Another World" made in 1951 to me was way ahead of it's time in scary movies. James Arness played The Thing. If you have not seen it try to when it comes on TV. I still watch it today.

Which ones? The Innocents is one. I still get shivers watching the hide & seek scene I posted earlier. You Brits have made some good creepy films. One I especially enjoyed was Haunted (1995)

The first scary movie I saw was Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte. Looking back it's not really scary but for some reason my parents took me to see it when I was a kid and it freaked me out
