I don't scare easily, and have already seen all of the classics (Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween, Friday the 13th, ect). While these are great movies, they don't really do it for me (at least not in the scary sense).

Maybe it's because I've already seen them so many times. But is there a movie that is really scary?
 
The Ring freaked me out when I first saw it...

When I realized I was basically scared of a cartoon, it kinda diminished it a little...:shrug:

The ring didn't even phase me. That's the problem... I love watching the horror movies, but not of them even phase me.

I at least wanna be shocked.
 
I've developed a strong fetish for Asian horror flicks. They blow away the mainstream scare movies in terms of creativity. I just watched this asian horror short called "Catepillar".....this lady amputated the arms and legs of her war wounded husband to keep him home......true love.....:wub:
 
The Ring, because of how she came jerking out of the TV...for some reason that frightened me and caused me to have rather a terrible nightmare that night..also i hate movies in which there are sudden flashes of a gruesome image..
 
I'm a big fan of The Strangers.
The Thing is also an excellent choice.
 
First off...I'm 21 years old.

I fawking LOVE horror movies, but almost every horror film released in modern times is basically just watching a girl have blood thrown on her while she screams over and oooover and oooooover and OOOOOOOOOVVVEEER AGAIN!:banghead:

...Anyway. I'm also quite uneasily phased. But now this comes down to what sort of elements in a horror movie frighten you.
If sudden POP UPS with loud noises scare you the most then...huzzah...but for me, it's the subtle, quieter, more eerie things that frighten me.

Now everybody can laugh as much as they want to...but a few of my favourite horror films are as follows.

John Carpenter's "The Fog". I mean the OLDER one, not that stupid stupid STUPID new one they made. The original The Fog, scared me as a child and still frightens me today. The tall dark shapes moving in the fog is just plain creepy. Very well directed movie.

The Haunting AGAIN the old one please. The new one was just...laughable. The old black and white version had one of the scariest haunted house stories I'd seen in awhile. Cool thing is you pretty much just scare yourself by wondering what the hell could be making all those terrifying noises in the house.

The Blair Witch Project...not everybody's cup of tea. Perhaps the fact that I used to live in a forest JUST like the one it took place in made is even more terrifying for me...but this film actually made me squeeze a pillow; ready to bury my face in it whenever something happened. If you can get past the really poor film quality and the bumpy, BUMPY camera.

The Uninvited AGAAAIN THE OLD ONE! The new one's plot has nothing to do with this one. Good luck actually FINDING this movie but again this is a black and white movie about a house haunted by two rivaling ghost women.
Only sad part is most of the movie is more like an old "would you like 2 lumps in your tea sir?" kind of film, but when the scary moments arrive (like the ghost awakening everyone with her crying), it's really great.

The Candyman The Candyman really really surprised me. I wasn't expecting to actually get a little scared and enjoy every second of this film. It was very good...that's all I have to say. Check it out.

So that's all I'll name for now. A few more films I love are Saw, American Psycho, most Alfred Hitchcock movies, and all the good ol' classics. But these films don't really scare me much they just make me happy.

LONG LIVE HALLOWEEN! (the holiday not the movie...but the movie rocks too)
 
Try the Shining. I kind of laughed thru most of the movie but it's because I read the book first~I couldn't turn out the lights after that but it scared a lot of my friends.
Dee Snider's Strangeland was pretty terrifying I thought. More disturbing that horrifying I guess but definitely worth watching.
XOXO

The Blair Witch Project

Good movie.I think this movie recieves a lot of undeserved negative criticism.

I enjoyed Rob Zombie's flicks,House of 1000 Corpses,The Devils Rejects.

I have been on a horror movie binge this past few days and have watched the following,

Dawn of the Dead
Cabin Fever
Critters
28 Days later
Silence of the Lambs
Hannibal
The Hills Have Eyes 1,2
Hostel 1,2

They all have their fair share of blood and guts. 😛 Hopefully one of them will spark your interest if you haven't already seen them. :scream:
 
my favorite horror movie/movie ever is saw and all the sequels

not many horror movies that will actually scare you if your over 12 though

Hey. So not true, thankyouverymuch.

Anything by Stephen King is creepy because of the kind of guy he is.

The very first Nightmare on Elm Street really freaked me out also.

You really wanna be freaked out? Watch Cloverfield. That movie was so horrific it was bone-chilling.
 
There's also the original Black Christmas.

"If this movie doesn't make your skin crawl - it's on too tight!"
 
Want a great horror movie?

Ignore all these damn mainstream horror films that came out in the last 30 years and track down a copy of either:

"Horror Hotel" from 1963

or

"Carnival of Souls" , from 1963/64. These two are very creepy, atmospheric, and play great in a darkened room at night. They both scared the shit out of me as a kid and are available on dvd.

All of the Saw movies after the original are splatter films, not horror films.
And there are plenty of quality horror films that have scared plenty of grown adults.

Whoever said the original Black Christmas is absolutely correct too, I love that film.

yoooo brotha, offense taken :yarr: i know horror movies are one of those media where we love to stray from the popular and drop some obscure indie's, and i don't for a second deny that the movies you mentioned are scary - i'll check them out, they are probably available through blockbuster total access (which is great) - but to deny that some of the above movies are scary? You want to watch Candyman alone in a creepy place at night? The Shining? Scary shit man :Grrr:

The Steven King thing is interesting. I actually find most of the movies that he himself has a lot of influence on don't come out well* Pet Sematary for example, is one of my all-time favorite books (of any genre), and I feel like he totally butchered the movie.

*I'm not one of those "oh the book was so much better" guys. In fact I think that's generally somewhat retarded as it's comparing 2 completely different types of art where the only similarity is the plot.

But the shining, where kubrick got his hands on King's story and made his own vision of a movie, that is fucking gold. But I can't think of many other movies based on his books that I was that impressed by. Do you have suggestions? Didn't like IT (or rather, thought it could have been so much better), didn't like Tommyknockers, didn't like the stand. Loved shawshank and stand by me, but those aren't horror...

Oh, carrie was good
 
After reading the book, "The Shining" the movie failed to scare me as it had before i read it..

the poster who posted about the original "Uninvited" was spot on..to me there is nothing scarier than hearing a female sobbing or a child sobbing, and you know it's not yourself or anyone living.
 
Two Thousand Maniacs! or Cannibal Holocaust, I have been meaning to watch that and I hear is pretty X-TREME.
