    Would have to say any Stephen King movie!! Huge fan and would watch anything done by him

    EXCEPT Maximum Overdrive. The short story was good, but the movie sucked out loud. Ironically, he directed it himself and admitted that he was EXTREMELY coked up at the time.

    I like a most of movies on this list, but I am surprised that Hostel (the first one) and The Devil's Rejects were never mentioned.

    IMO, King's stories done by someone else can be awesome... when he's too heavily involved, I feel as if they get watered down... he sticks too closely to his vision (can't blame him.. they're his babies), but The Shining (heck, I forgot Shining on my list!) was perfection... his later version was... in a word.. madeforTVcrappola.

    Idiocracy

    I thought this was a documentary? I guess seeing the truth in it could make it a horror though :wink:

    Jaws
    The Conjuring
    Exorcist
    Zombie movies, particularly the original Night of the Living Dead
    Aliens
    The Evil Dead
    Silence of the Lambs
    A Nightmare on Elm Street
    28 Days Later
    Poltergeist
    The Omen

    This guy covered it. I would like to add, personally though, Pet Sematary. The book is more disturbing, but the damn cat still gets me.

    1. The haunting in Connecticut

    If you're talking about the documentary that's been on TV. Absolutely awesome. Seriously. Knowing what the Snedeker family went through, yeah, that was some ****. After knowing that, THEN watching the movie, it pisses you off. If you've never seen the documentary or don't know the history behind it, I can see where it would probably scare the **** out of someone.

    Idiocracy

    Seriously. Scariest ****ing movie I've ever seen, because I can *seriously* see this happening. Zombies are not my biggest fear. THIS is.

    PS: "Go away! Baitin'!"

    I like a most of movies on this list, but I am surprised that Hostel (the first one) and The Devil's Rejects were never mentioned.

    I'm just now realizing what a sick and twisted individual I am. The Devil's Rejects is one of my absolute FAVORITE movies of all time. There are SO many good quotes in that movie. I actually went through here and realized a lot of what's been mentioned- The Shining, Friday the 13th, Halloween (all but III), Texas Chainsaw Massacre (new and old), are some of my favorite movies. LOVE them. The only man to ever play Jason more than one in the Friday the 13th movies (Kane Hodder), I think is one of the finest men to ever walk the face of the earth. I probably have some issues. :drinker:
