The classic Night of the Living Dead, Phantasm, the Serpent and the Rainbow, and The Shining (Jack Nicholson version, please). [img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img] </font>

The thing is, that I saw Evil Dead when I was about 11! Believe me, it was scary then, and ever since, it somehow reminds me of being scared, rather than actually scaring me. Truth is, movies don't scare me any more! The best they can do is just give me the creeps.

You know, I've never seen Serpent and the Rainbow OR Phantasm! There's two for the list! Thanks Azred!

<font color = lightgreen>Ok. I admit that Evil Dead will probably scare most 11-year-olds. [img]graemlins/laugh3.gif[/img]

[img]graemlins/doh.gif[/img] I can't believe I forgot What Lies Beneath. I haven't been spooked at a movie like that in years. [img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img] </font>

I didn't know there was such a thing as movies that can scare ya.

I liked the Thing. At the very least its a very famous horror film and the only one I could ever take even remotley serious. Possibly because I just watched it one night and didnt know what it was when it started.

The Birds scared the snot out of me when I was younger.

Lately I don't scare very easily, but "What Lies Beneath" was pretty good, and a couple scenes from "The Sixth Sense" had the hair up on the back of my neck (I love it when a movie can do that), we saw it at the Drive In and I think that actually HELPED the atmosphere of the movie a LOT.

When I was around 3 or 4, my dad was watching the Night Stalker on TV. I aaw these two people torn apart in a stairwell by some sort of monster, and that terrified me for weeks. I could barely go up the stairs by myself.

When I was in college I saw Nightmare on Elm Street. That one scared me quite a bit.

Psycho had it's scary scene, and I still get nervous in the shower some times.

Someone else mentioned the Serpent and the Rainbow. I agree, that one was scary too.

When Aliens II first came out, I saw that at the theatre. It was fairly scary, though not of the horror movie genre.

when I was about 13 I saw "Night of the Scarecrow", or something like that, after the end scene (the "bad guy" was running through a corn field looking over his should, he just stopped, turned around and saw a scarecrow impaling him with a pitchfork) I didn't run through doorways or around corners for nearly 3 months afterwards.

"What Lies Beneath" is the only movie I've seen recently that is frightening, without going overboard with gore (trying to get the reaction through disgust, rather than atmosphere, and real terror).

I have to say the exorcist, I saw it when I was 9 or 10 and it scared the @#$% out of me. I'd have to agree with debiler and say that Event Horizon was pretty freaky.
