I think because I was so much younger when I saw then my choices have to be Halloween and the first couple of Friday the 13th movies. I have never seen The Exorcist all the way through so I can't use it. Cujo was a strong contender too. Still need to see The Conjuring but heard it is good.
Blair Witch Project
** Spoiler below *****
But only if you believe its real. I thought it was real when I watched it.
That SC rapping/singing girl on the other thread
Titanic
Faces of Death.
Real death footage! Or not. I remember watching those as a kid. If memory serves one of the scenarios was at the "University of Southern Mississippi" where a student died after bungee jumping off a dorm building and they miscalculated the length because the building didn't have a 13th floor. Is there even a 13+ story building in the Burg?
Tie between Maine and La Tech games. Couldn't sleep for weeks...
Not too scary now but I think the first Alien movie with Sigourney Weaver is one of the best movies ever made. The movie is so quiet for most of it that it makes it incredibly suspenseful.
The strangers. That movie Freaked me out man
+1. The strangers is crazy creepy. Makes me want to take my pistol everywhere I go.
I haven't seen this film, but two people (my sister and good friend) have told me it's the scariest film they've seen: The Orphanage
Apparently it's a Spanish film from a few years back. I personally hate scary movies, so I won't be seeing it... but thought some of you may be interested.
To clarify, they described it as one of those movies that freaks you out and leaves a lasting impression, rather than the traditional slasher or "who's hiding in the dark" type of film.
The Blind Side
funny true story: (and I'm going to date myself) When the Exorcist came out, they couldn't show it in the theater, so they had to show it at the drive-in (some / most of you won't know what I'm talking about)
I went by myself because it was a last minute deal and all my buddies were doing something else (before instant communication) So, I had just finished a couple bong hits in my El Camino, and I'm deep into the movie. Just about the time the chick spins her head around, out of nowhere, an aquaintence came up and opened my passenger door... scared the ever lovin' shit out of me.. he was like, " man, you got any weed?" lol
A great Halloween season movie is Let Me In. Watch the foreign version. I NEVER watch subtitled movies, but this was outstanding. Great, great movie that happens to be somewhat scary.
Silver Bullet. I believe I was 5 in 1986 and my friend has a spend the night birthday party. So Silver Bullet was the movie of choice. I got so scared and freaked out my mom was called to get me. Still scared to death of wolves. I think I finally watched Silver Bullet all the way through in 1996. Scared the shit out of my ass.
Not really that scary of a movie, but a dam good one.Quote:
