What's the most scary movie of all time?


For me it has to be the ORIGINAL Blair Witch Project. Saw that when I was just a kid and couldn't sleep for weeks after. Also, to this day, I've never been camping solely because of that movie.

The Exorcist /end thread

But seriously, my (ex) wife literally pissed herself watching it.

Second on my list is the Silence of the Lambs. It's not one of the traditional "gotcha" scary movies, but the plot and the underlying meaning have a long lasting psychological effect on you (I still get goosebumps when I think of it)

Really ??

Oh my god...I got the same feeling after watching SOTL. It's just such a deep strange feeling that sticks with you, makes your outlook on life feel different haha

The Shining. I'm still nervous when I go into a bathroom and the shower curtain is closed.

I second The Shining...scariest movie I've EVER seen! 😲 After watching the 1980 version of that on the big screen, I wouldn't go to the bathroom alone for 2 weeks! Never had a film scare me as bad and long as that one did. Good ol' Jack...never could anyone have such a lasting impression as he did on that part, it was truly made for him...or should I say, he was truly made for it? Gotta love him! 😄👍👍

Ok I was a kid when I saw it but The Sixth Sense scared the bajeebus out of me. I got scared walking next to beds in case someone would grab my feet. And the tent scene. And when he gets locked in the room with the old man. GAH.
