What are your favorite scary movies?

Excorcist is one for me.

Psycho is another.
Hellraiser and Hellraiser II
When I was a young lass, my brother and I had to stay with my aunt one night and she loved horror movies. She also had cable! We watched Burnt Offerings, and to this day, it creeps me out like few others.

Damn, it still gives me the heebie-jeebies just THINKING about it!

The Wicker Man

The Shining

Carrie

The Omen
Amityville Horror.

Also, Freddy Krueger was responsible for many sleepless nights during my younger years.
Nothing scares me more than Jason from Friday the 13th. I cannot even look at a hockey mask without being freaked.

My favorite horror movie (its not really a horror though) is The Rocky Horror Picture Show. I can't really watch scary movies at all, I get scared way too easily!
♥ Listen, touch, and look around in the air and on the ground. If you watch all nature's things, you might just see a fairy's wings. ♥
I read the book Amityville in my late teens. My then hubs was at work and I had to go to a next door neighbors, I had scared myself so much. Now I LMAO at that.
Also, I cannot go to a "haunted house" type of place. People tend to grab you. Not only does it scare me, I always hit/grab back.

I've been groped too many times in those places.
For me, the "something" that makes a movie a scary movie is "something" that seems plausible. Or an "unknown" adding to the suspense. Today's audiences seem to love the horror porn with the likes of the Saw, Hostel and other like blood bath gore movies.

Some greats have made the list already.

My first scary movie would have had to have been the Hitchcock classic, The Birds, followed closely by his, Psycho.

The original Wickerman is a divine nominee nicola. The folks of Summerisle while not scary outright and by some counts quite preoccupied with fertility are frightening in their customs and beliefs.

I'd toss Misery into the vat too! Kathy Bates was a wonderful villainess, to me the thought of being held captive by such a woman would be the ultimate terror as she seemed quite ordinary and non-threatening.
Exorcist, Blair Witch and Halloween are our season classics.
This might be an obscure one, but it's a scifi original movie called "Attack if the Worms".

It was scary how bad that movie was....
Forget who you thought I was, I'm The Chris J bitch!
Agree, the original Wicker Man is a classic. Other favourites of mine include: The Omen, Poltergeist, Salem's Lot (original), Nosferatu, and the wonderfully atmospheric and sexually charged Don't Look Now.

As for horror comedy, I dont think that the Rocky Horror Picture Show can be beat, although Braindead comes a close second.

Is that the one with Kevin Bacon?
I don't think so, i saw it on the scifi channel 10 or so years ago. It was on Mystery Science Theater 3000, the movies with 3 little funny commentators at the bottom right.

Hubby used to watch that.
Can't believe nobody said "Candyman" yet...

Although for me it would have to be "The Stand". Although it was a made-for-TV movie, it still scared the hell out of me...

You wanna be freaked out just go to youtube and type in hauntings. Some of that stuff scares even me and I have watched a lot of horror movies.

As for a favorite Halloween move, I like Hocus Pocus (yes, I know it isn't scary at all) My mom loved that movie and I used to watch it with her every year since it came out.

Anything Steven King is good for me, too.
ugh! I hate scary movies because.......well to be perfectly honest they scare the crap out of me.....lol.

The Hostel would have to be my movie of choice though....it is very gruesome....it made my stomach churn....
My Top 5:
1. Psycho
2. Amityville Horror
3. Stephen King
4. Poltergeist
5. Saw
5. The Glass House

Now for the Haunted Houses. In High School I went with my girlfriends so I could get grabbed and groped by them.

Depends on who's doing the groping. We went to one last year and hubby couldn't keep his hands off me, it was kind of fun!

All of them scare me, but The Wizard of Oz has to be one of the most frightening.
"My Ex Wife" The thought still makes me shake with fright!
How about "IT" - that bloke was a real clown.
has to be The Birds, the classic Hitchcock ones are always the best!
I've read everything Stephen King has written. The problem is when they turn them into movies, very few of them are as good as the book. I loved The Stand and keep waiting for it to happen in real life. But not the movie.
Cell was good and I hear they're making it into a movie.

Freddy v. Jason made me laugh. Somewhere along the line Freddy stopped being scary and started being funny.
Psycho

The Birds

IT

The Shining

Carrie

The Wicker Man

zombie films like Dawn of the Dead

House of 1000 Corpses

The Devils Rejects

Cant think of any more right now
Rob Zombie is turning out to be an interesting film maker.
It's not a horror in the classic sense, but if you're looking for a disturbing film try the Austian "Funny Games".
I've never heard of it Charley. What's it about?
I've seen too many disturbing/gross things to be put off by typical horror flicks. The scary things rarely scare me, and the gross things don't gross me out. For me, horror movies are best enjoyed whilst also enjoying of the herb... I just sit there and laugh, and laugh, and laugh...
