what's your favorite scary movie?
i loooooove scary movies. but i haven't seen a good one in a loooong time. i have the night off because my kitty went to the vet today, and i'm staying home to cuddle with her :P so since this is my only night off til sunday, and then i think i'm working every night next week since it's the week before school, i wanna watch some good ones. halloween is my all time favorite, and i have a few on dvd that i wouldn't mind rewatching, but i wanna see something new that will scare me.
so what are your suggestions? i know there are some girls (and guys? but i know some girls for sure) on here who love horror movies!

I think I'd have to go with The Shining. I also liked The Ring.
ETA: oh, are you looking for something less mainstream? I've heard, but haven't seen so can't confirm, that the original japanese version of The Ring, called Ringu, is super-scary and good.

Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
I'm a scary movie fanatic, too. I'm gonna have to go with The Exorcist, though. I was 18 years old when I first watched that movie, and I had to go sleep in my little brother's bedroom that night, it scared me that much. It still frightens me.

yeah, the ring scared me really bad the first time i saw it. i never saw the japanese one, though.
oh, and there are a ton of less mainstream movies on fearnet on demand, but i'm skeptical when it comes to scary movies. sometimes they arent very scary.

Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
All of the Japanese horror movies are good. They always freak me out. People always overlook the foreign section, but there are actually really good movies there. Tale of Two Sisters....now that was a freaky movie. It's in the foreign section. They put the movies in english though.
Edit: And you have to see the original Jap version of The Grudge too.

Exorcist is a classic of course. If you like old phsycological horror...The Changeling is CREEPY!!!

Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
I hate those scary movies where all of a sudden something loud and gross is going to jump out at you! I cringe the whole time, not because I'm into the movie, I just don't like the shriek!
That said, I think The Descent was a good scary flick. It didn't have that annoying jump out at you thing, it had a long drawn out tension and suspense. Plus I like caving! You might want to check that one out.

Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
there's a movie called Paperhouse...it's not gross-scary, and it could only vaguely be considered horror, but it's got that unsettling kind of thing that stays with you.

Stephen King's "The Stand" miniseries- a bit cheesy, but the actor playing Randall Flagg (The Devil) has a big jiggly ass so whenever he's onscreen we talk about how Satan has a fat ass ;D Well, we laugh hysterically....
The "scary" part of "The Stand" is that we could truly, possibly be God's CockSock...

Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
I always liked tommyknockers
tracy lords is HOT

Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
I liked the "Saw" movies a lot.

Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
HALLOWEEN!!!! And Rob Zombie just remade it, coming out this Labor day weekend. I'm going to see it with a critical eye because I find it hard to believe anything beating the original. I also have the theme song as my ringtone. Yea. I'm psycho over this movie...

Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
^ me too! except the ring is only my tone for the month of october. on one hand i'm excited about the new one, but on the other.. you can't touch it! dont fix it if it ain't broken.

Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
I have to agree, the Descent was way cool and scary! Makes me wish I did not already see it so I could watch it for the first time again.

Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
Kairo (Circuit) is my favorite. It's a Japanese horror flick-man, they make some scary-ass movies!

Ringu comes in as a close second.

Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
the original Phantasm !
I'm also somewhat partial to 'Bachelor Party Massacre' because I was in it LOL
(the main character cut my tits off with a machete )

Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
^^^ IMMEDIATELY puts "Bachelor Party Massacre" in NetFlix cue! :D
I am a big Wes Craven fan, including the original "Nightmare on Elm Street" (featuring wee little Johnny Depp). The sequel was terrible, but the third one had its moments. I enjoyed "New Nightmare" as well, much more tongue-in-cheek, much like . . .
All three "Scream" movies, also from Wes Craven! Loved 'em. I like a little humor in my horror, especially when it can maintain the scariness. It's an impressive balance to strike.

My favorite modern scary movie is Hostel. I don't know how many times I've seen it. ;D I need to see the second one, although, I've heard bad things about it. Oh well...

Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
Two scariest movies I ever saw 1.The Excorcist 2. The Shining.
You could not PAY me to watch either of these films alone.
-
Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
Excorcist
The Omen
Hellraiser series
I love them but am afraid to watch them alone now.

Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
If you like Halloween-style horror (less guts, more scary), you must must must see Black Christmas. The original. It's the original 'the call is coming from inside the house' movie. Pretty much the second modern horror movie, after Psycho. Scares the bejeezus out of me everytime.
Damn, I don't see Bachelor Party Massacre on Netflix!

Re: what's your favorite scary movie?
Acutally SCARY films? Kairo, Ju-on, I actually liked the remake of 13 Ghosts... but its not THE scariest ever... Arachnophobia skeeered me, I hate spiders.

i love the original 13 ghosts, but not because it's particularly scary. there was one part in the remake that scared the crap out of me though.
and yes, actually scary ones. i feel like nothing is all that scary these days, and ive seen the ones that scare me, so when i rewatch them it takes some of the fun out of it.
