Favourite and scariest horror movies?

[griffin]

With halloween this week, becoming a bigger thing each year in Australia from the major retailers trying to create another spending event... plus seeing some TV commercials promoting some horror shows/movies this week, I had the idea to ask what others have as their favourite horror movies, and/or the most scariest movies you've ever seen (or failed to watch to the end because it was too scary).

Alien is probably the only movie that I'd consider scary (not counting jump scares, which are a shock rather than actual fright). I do find some movies like Spice to be rather unsettling.

I'd also reccomend Attack the Block, whilst more Sci-fi with some comedy dressing, I think it makes good a Halloween flick.

The movies that worked on me are:
The Haunting (1963 version), Texas Chainsaw Massacre (original), Exorcist, Blair Witch Project.

In terms of skin-crawlingly creepy, I can't go past that awful "Romeo & Juliet" scene in Transformers: Age of Extinction. (-_-)

Monsters inc is the scariest movie out there just think there could be a monster in your closet

[Ralph Wiggum]

The scariest movie I've seen is The Ring (Japanese version).

The most horrifying would be Transformers Age of Extinction.

+ 1 for The Ring... although I've only ever seen the US version. We actually named our daughter Samara based on the character of the same name

Wolf Creek was pretty damn scary as it seemed like something that could plausibly happen. Saw was pretty scary, never saw any of the sequels.

I really dig getting scared by flicks but can't say I'm much of a gore fan so the Hellraiser movies and similar flicks more grossed me out more than made me frightened.

The Evil Dead all the way, the remake is pretty damn good as well.

I'm not really into gore for gores sake, movies like Saw & Hostel are terrible, terrible movies.

IVe always hated the opening scene from Nightmare on Elm st 2, it's always scared the crap out of me.

For those with netflix, try jumping to the US/UK version, much wider selection of Horror.

Also some others movies that scare me, American Werewolf in London & Dog Soldiers. Those two have the best Wolves I've seen in horror. Just look at this thing
