...and the reason why? It getting to be halloween time and i need some spookfests. I like pretty much all of it except for the Japanese/Korean stuff.

Personal fave ^ Pumpkinhead- directed by the late great Stan Winston. My pops actually took me to see this when i was a kid.

    I hate scary movies and I'm not coming back in this thread because I'm skeeeeered. The scariest movie to me was The Exorcist.

    The Omen, the original. Damian was so creepy! Also Rosemary's Baby.

    The Conjuring
    That shiz made me jump so many times and freak the F out in the movie theater. No movie has ever done that. The grown men in the row in front of me were screaming like little girls. It was just as scary watching on dvd, and my ex bf laughed at me until I put claw marks into his arms from grabbing so hard.

    i thought that one was pretty good. i like the hide and clap moments. i haven't watched the spinoff yet...Annabelle, about the doll. I'm wondering if it was any good.

    I started to one night and it was really slow going and I fell asleep. I heard it was really good though. Sounds like you and I need to watch it this weekend.

    i think that one's a age thing cause i hear it all the time from people in their 20's, but those of us in their 30's always seem to go with Nightmare Before Christmas.

    That's my second favorite (:

    I agree also - still can't watch that one. My favorite, although not truly a scary movie is Young Frankenstein! Classic!

    The Exorcist
    The Ring (and it's Japanese predecessor Ringu...which might be the better film, but I saw the American remake first)
