Well would have been better if you had also posted your take on this. ANyhow I love horror movies. ANd whenever there's one I go and check it though not the teenie crap but good ones which atleast have some substance. like in the recent times the hollywood versions of some foreign movies were fine though nothing n front of the priginals.
I love Japanese horror and you have to see Ringu (The RING in hollywood), JUON (Grudge) and Dark Water (Dark water) in nihongo and one would know what is horror.
Also the latest two parts of Exorcist were also good enough. Though that neck rotation from oldest one was neat.
Also dreamcatcher was also good though slow paced. but what fine story telling.
And going further I liked The Exorcism of Emily Rose. though not scary it was spiritually horror. Adn to some like me even Passion of the Christ was horror as the gruesome treatment meted out was nerve wrecking esp the one where his weapon gets stuck while lashing Christ and the soldier pulls it out and that really moved me.
So this was for the time being.
And personally i would like to get the 10 pointers for this.
KAPISH !!

The film that frightened me the most was a version of "Dracula" screened when I was 10 (1956) - EVER since then despite the fact that I know there aren't vampires, or at least if they are they live on the other side of the world(!), vampire stories can scare the boogers out of me. For years after seeing that film I was NEVER without an anti-vampire device - and even today, I sleep with the pillow over my head. THAT began when I wanted to hide from the vampires!

However, the film that scared me the most was "Alien." Oh, going to see it was SUCH a mistake - a first date, and I have to go see a brilliantly-crafted horror film about very very nasty spiders in space! (OK, they aren't spiders, but they reminded me of those critters, and I am deeply phobic about spiders.)

Had I been stupid enough to see the film "Arachnids" I would probably be a gibbering, drooling idiot in a rubber room. Someone else mentioned "The Excorcist" - that's another one I refuse to see because it touches on all the deep, scary BS religious schoolteachers implanted in youth. I may not believe that garbage now, but it still has power over my subconscious.

Ewww - the power of imagination can be marvelous, but it also stinks!

SAW is pretty scary most of the way through, but by the time it's over, you're thinking you've wasted 2 hours.

A really scary (non-horror) movie is SILKWOOD with Meryl Streep, Kurt Russell, and Cher. It's based on real events, too.

The Exorcist. I was probably about 10 when I first saw it and between the head spinning and the glowing green eyes, I had nightmares for a month.

The Blair Witch Project at the movie theater.
I laugh when I watch it now, but when I saw it at the show I thought it was real. Wow, now that made it scary!

The Last Broadcast.

It's in a similar style to the crappy Blairwitch film, but it's miles better and very very scary!

It's definately one which will give you nightmares for ages.
