    The original version of The Haunting of Hill House. Not the new crap. The black and white version.
    This. This is one of my favorite movies of all time, also one of my favorite books (Shirley Jackson is the author). It seems a little cliche now, but all ghost movies are based on this movie.

    I adore horror movies. I have as long as I can remember. I can't recall a single one that actually scared me as an adult. The original Poltergeist scared the hell out of me when I was 10, if that counts.

    One of my favorite memories was going to see what I thought was a sci-fi flick and suddenly being immersed into one of my favorite horror flicks of all time.

    Event Horizon, baby!
    I forgot about this one! I stand corrected, this one actually did scare the hell out of me when I saw it in the theater. It's one of those rare ones that actually affected me.

    Childs Play. I think it was because I watched it as a child and my sisters had tons and tons of dolls and stuff animals. Always thought they were going to come to life and get me.

    The only horror movie that ever made me jump and shriek was Carrie. Also love Salem's Lot.

    BTW: if you haven't seen it, check out Cabin in the Woods. I wouldn't say it's scary, but boy is it clever and good.

    I remember thinking in Texas Chainsaw that if she didn't stop screaming, I'd have killed her myself!

    Shirley Jackson, while an excellent writer, was out of her dang mind I think :laugh: The Lottery? Scary stuff

    I'm a huge vadge, so my scariest movie seen was Jeepers creepers 2. Couldn't even make it halfway at the halloween party, I bolted out the door. That was years ago, and I STILL cant stand seeing tree branch shadows under street lamps. /chills

    Funny enough, I've seen the Ring 1 and 2, bless the child, the exorcist and missed call, & parts of Carrie and they barely phased me. /shrug

    I just bought Jeepers Creepers 1 and 2! I liked the first one better, though. Another good one is Joy Ride (also liked the first one better).

    Joy Ride, is that the one where these two guys were messing with this trucker?

    Nightmare on Elm Street. Still can't even watch a minute of it. Had horrible cousins who would frighten me with the "song" from it.

    I normally love scary movies, but this one I can not stand, maybe because it follows no rules, dunno, but I still can't watch more than half an hour of it.

    There are 2.."last house on the left," and "Arlington Place."
    LHOTL, because it could happen.

    Arlington Place, because IT IS HAPPENING..CELLS of TERRORIST's in the USA.

    I took a horror film class in college and couldn't believe we were shown Last House on the Left. I felt it was so disturbing and disgusting. Can't believe they actually remade it (haven't seen it). They also showed a movie called Cannibal Holocaust which featured the actors really killing animals. I skipped class that week.

    For me, Jaws. My dad let me watch it when I was very young, 5 I think? This movie still scares me and made me terrified of the ocean, even lakes. Jaws was recently released on bluray and it is beautifully remastered. The opening sequence is even more scary.

    YES! I can't even hear the words "candy cane" without thinking of that movie.
