My List of Scariest Movies I Have Seen:
28 Days Later -Zombie desolation never seemed so real. And the running zombies...geeesh who came up with running zombies- do they really need any other advantages?
When a Stranger Calls -yea, babysitting after this was impossible.
The Grudge -I didn't sleep for several days and it took years to go in the attic again without fear of being attacked by a little boy.
Rosemary's Baby -just so wrong and creepy.
Pet Cemetery -Gaagge!
Nightmare on Elm Street -No-Doze in Coke with Sanka mixed in doesn't work when trying to stay awake...
Hostel -Go ahead, book your next trip to Eastern Europe after seeing this.
Seven -I love to hear and imitate Brad Pitt saying "What's in the boooxx?"
Texas Chainsaw Massacre -any version or sequel scares me
The Exorcist -nothing needs to be said
The Shining -If my husband goes berserk and chases me and kid with axe, I plan on writing a strongly worded letter to his lawyer.
Invasion of the Body Snatchers- 1978 -Saw this movie as a kid and it has never left me, so f**kin' scary.
The Birds -my fear of birds in general make it a good choice.
Children of the Corn -Honey, have you seen any cars lately? No, but let's keep driving on this deserted creepy road surrounded by corn!"
American Werewolf in London -OMG! Never walk on a dark, deserted London hillside in the country...)
Resident Evil- not just zombies but mutant zombies.
The Strangers -This is exactly why I fear staying home alone.
Pyscho -Mother?
Jaws -this was awesome to see when I was little and lived on the ocean...swimming in deep water is still a problem.
Blair Witch Project -Although it made me nauseous to watch, the last scene was so scary to me.
Piranha -Thank God my parents never sent me to summer camp! Only bad shit happens at summer camp!
Want to See Now:
The Brood
Session 9
The Thing -I think I saw this one before but it has been too long to remember.
The Hills Have Eyes
and by the way...BOO!

I love a really good scary movie and although I don't mind gore I find suspense scarier than anything else. Many of my favorites are on this list too, including The Birds, Psycho (I love a great older movie) and Children of the Corn(Isaac and Malaki provided for many sleepless nights). I would definitely have to add the first Saw to my list though...I never saw that ending coming!
ReplyDeleteI love The Shining! You're so lucky that you've actually seen some scary movies that actually "scare" you. I always end up enjoying the "scary" movies because of the story or something stupid like that. I never get scared! I read Pet Sematary, and the book creeped me out a little bit. *sigh* maybe one day
ReplyDeleteI'm SUCH a chicken. I do not do scary movies. Though I did make the mistake of watching the Grudge. Swear I didn't shower with the bathroom door closed for months.
ReplyDeleteI have issues. I can't watch scary movies. CANNOT. I STILL can't get over Jaws. Hello! How many decades is that. Wait. Shhh. Now I sound old. :-)
ReplyDeleteOH and that clown you posted there. NOT HELPING! LOL.
I can't really do toooo scary. I like suspense and thriller but not straight scary, and definitely not horror.
