Movies that live up to the word 'scary'
 
In your opinions, I wanna know what movies you think actually live up to being 'scary' or 'terrifying'. Movies that you cannot laugh away saying, that movie was not scary at all.


I made a list of classes in MY OPINION of movies that terrified me.

Class A (Scariest)

The Evil Dead - I am talking about the first one. I saw this when I was younger, and I could not sleep by myself for days. It literally scarred me and kept me away from horror movies for a long time. The voices in the movie still send a shiver down my spine. I remember holding myself everytime I knew something was going to pop out. I was yelling "DONT GO IN THE CELLAR" and when Cheryl had escaped the cellar, I was like ohshit.. shes pissed and shes out.

The Exorcist - I also saw this one when I was younger, and since it's said to be based on a true story, that terriefied me

Psycho - The only black and white movie that actually scared me, besides Night of the Living Dead.

Jaws - I love to swim. Let's just say this movie made me more cautious.

The Shining - I saw this when I was young and I turned it off after the twins in the hallway scene. I eventually finished the rest of it, and I can safely say, this is the only movie that scared me enough to shut it off.

Class B (Movies not as scary as Class A, but scary)

Halloween
Alien
Rosemary's Baby
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Class C (Movies not as scary as Class B, but scary)

A Nightmare On Elm Street
Night of the living Dead

Every other horror movie I have seen, has not made an impact on me or scared me like the movies above have.

What movie has had the biggest impact on you, and actually scared you?

I know this might be somewhat different from you guys ,but i honestly had trouble sleeping after watching 'The Ring'. That girl Samara really freaked me out :D

I also think 'The Sixth Sense' was kinda creepy :)

Phantasm, Dawn of the Dead. Two of my favorite awesome scary 70's horror flicks. They kick ass!
