One of the scariest movies I saw was "Purple Noon" - an early 1960s movie. Well maybe more suspenseful than scary. Scary in the Alfred Hitchcock way.

It is based on the same book as "Mr Ripley" from a few years ago which is a pale imitation.

The hospital hallway scene in Excorcist III has scarred me for life when I walk down long empty hallways now.

Section 9 was pretty creepy too.

[Chewy]

there are no scary movies these days.. the general population is to desensitized(sp) to violence and so forth

[mojo]

people under the stairs freaked me out as a lil'in

...Pet Cemetery scared the shit out of me when I was little

[dj_soo]

The Changeling scared me when i was younger.

I thought the Ring (japanese version) was pretty creepy and i thought the Grudge was pretty cheesy but also scary.

I prefer the movies where the monster or ghost or whatever is left up to the imagination rather than the gory slashers of today.

I'd like to add:

SWIMFAN... total edge of your seat creeper.

wow. .. the dark crystal never scared me (I just watched it on TV actually), but arachnaphobia was the only movie that got me as a kid.

I don't find any movies scary now, unfortunately.

[hardstylin]

Fire In The Sky

the only movie that actually scared the shit outta me and still does

[Play-it-hard]

The new exorcist... and both saw one and two are good ones.

HOLY SHIT! I forgot all about that movie. That scared the fuck out of me, and probably still would. That scene in the phonebooth where they turn around and see the three slimey fingerprints.... jesus. Good call, Chris.

[crookedking]

"the day after" was a pretty scary one for me.

[diva]

Steven King's It and Pet Cemetary.

=/


edit: i forgot about Child's Play!
i think that series played a huge part in me not playing with dolls as a kid.

[crookedking]

after watching "dawn of the dead" i got a little scared when i took out the garbage.

i had to keep telling myself that it's all impossible. but is it? is it?

[Rayeine]

Whatever Happened to Baby Jane...
Scariest most creepiest movie i've ever seen.

[bungoshlung]

haha, I kept on assessing how hard my family, friends, and coworkers would be to kill/escape from if they turned into zombies for a good two weeks after I saw that film.
