Here goes the list of what we consider to be the scariest films ever honey:-
1. The Exorcist (1973 )- So much has been said and written about this movie that we hardly feel that our two bits will make the slightest difference, YET, we are among the few people that actually find the opening sequence as brilliantly effective and crucial to setting the tone for what is to follow. This is a marvelous horror film - one that could have ended up being laughable had it been treated differently. Though there were reports of modern audiences laughing during recent screenings in Britain where the film had been ridiculously banned as a "video nasty" for several years - one also laughs when nervous or tense. The film is a quarter of a century old yet still has the power to scare, an achievement in itself considering all the horrors of this century are not in monsters and creatures that suck blood and devour human flesh. There is far too much real, tangible horror around us in our everyday lives for us to feel threatened any longer by a Dracula, a Frankenstein or indeed Satan. The Exorcist is, by a whisker the most frightening experience that we have enjoyed in a cinema. Most Memorable Moment: well, that voice!
2. Halloween (1978) - visually stunning, poetry in motion of a terror ride with nothing much happening, yet the tension is almost unbearable. Perhaps the most imitated movie of the last twenty years or so, it has lost the power to shock because we audiences have become so accustomed to the "rules" of the horror movie genre as cleverly pointed out to us in "Scream". BUT, Halloween was indeed the first, or nearly the first to take the stalker idea to unprecedented, murderous heights. Halloween is THE classic Psycho on the loose horror movie of all time. The gliding visual point of view camera, the tinkling eerie score, the use of shadows and oh that agonizing, stark tension. What a huge masterpiece.
Most Memorable Moment:"he's still not dead" - and any of the stalking scenes after Michael escapes from the sanitorium are incredibly tense.
3. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) - Left me shell shocked for several days. The first death scene is so absolutely shocking and presented with such cold starkness that it's almost too real to be bearable. Followed by such shockers like the girl being slowly let down onto a meat hook which is hooking into the back of her head. She tries desperately to climb off the hook, but to no avail. There was an expectancy of such brutal horror materializing from nowhere in this film that even an open doorway into the darkness of night presents a terrifying prospect. There are elements of black humour here, but obscured by the monstrous horrors on display. It just takes the sound of that grotesque chainsaw sputtering to life to make the hairs on one's neck stand up. The film is an incredible terror ride, and more incredible for the fact that having watched it and felt as though you have just visited a slaughterhouse, there is hardly a drop of blood shown in the entire movie. Tobe Hooper has created a masterpiece of horror that suggests so much outright violence and mayhem that you can swear that you have seen it, even though you haven't. Indeed the most terrifying aspect of the movie is actually embedded in the name itself, another masterstroke of triggering the mind to all sorts of horror's. A brilliant movie in every sense and one of the greatest horror movies ever. Most Memorable Moment: one of many is Leatherface's first appearance - pure shocking majesty.
Cheers and have a nice week ahead :)

Sorority House Massacre 1986 - Sorority sisters are scared silly by a salacious slasher. A dangerous knife-wielding psycho has just escaped from a mental institution, and he's headed for the sorority house where he viciously murders the young beauties one by one!
This movie is so hokey because the girls stayed in the house being systematically murdered yet it never occurred to them to open the dang door and leave the house , it's like hello geez it was stupid .

My nomination would be "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" but it was largely a spoof, so it was sort of entertaining.
For a very funny Halloween-themed movie you might want to try "Young Frankenstein." It's a Mel Brooks classic that is enduringly funny--a bit more suited to adults than kids, but still hilarious.

The Wicker Man... the cheesy remake with Nicholas Cage.
The classic Hammer film is slightly better... but just barely.

Plan Nine From Outer Space - It was voted the worst movie ever. I kind of liked it, but what do I know.
