Re: Scariest Movie Ever?
A couple random thoughts:
- Event Horizon was TERRIFYING the first time I saw it. Second time, I wondered, 'What the hell was I so scared about?" - One from childhood: 'Shocker'. Don't remember who was in it, but me and Carl 'The Streetcar' Streeter watched it at his house when we were 13. Just freakin' scary. Movie is pretty lame to me now, though. - The first time I saw the movie 'Scream', I remember thinking that the first 15 minutes in which Drew Barrymore got all hacked up was some of the best slasher stuff I'd ever seen. Still enjoy the trilogy, but the first 15 of the orig. is the only scary stuff in the trilogy. - In conclusion, I think the scariest movies are those that NEVER stop being scary, no matter how many times you see them. So, then, for me, it's as easy as 1-2-3 ... 1) The Exorcist 2) The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (orig.) 3t) Alien, The Ring |

The Changeling. I had nightmares for about 5 years after seeing it. It's my favorite George C Scott movie.
I see some people mentioned The Exorcist, but aside from the crab-walk down the stairs I didn't even jump, and didn't find that one scary on a deep emotional level. Se7en scarred my psyche, so that might be another good one. Hellraiser scared the raising hell out of me while I was watching it, but I can't even remember why it was scary. ~D |

Re: Scariest Movie Ever?
The problem is with "scary movies" is that once you grow up a bit and if your thought process is based on science (ie you don't believe in the supernatural) it's really hard to be scared over a movie.
Although I would have to agree with Duke about Seven. That movie was extremely mentally disturbing and I watched it at home (not as good as it would have been if I saw it in theatres). I don't know, I remember watching the Sixth Sense when I was in my early teens and from what I could remember from the experience, I thought that was pretty damn scary. The Ring (the first one) I saw in theatres and I thought that had some scary scenes. |

Re: "Se7en"
Could someone elighten me as to why people use the opening credits to title the movie rather than the jacket? I don't get why people refer to this movie as Se7en. I'm looking at my VHS jacket box art from back in the day and the title says Seven. Moreover, the fine-print credits also say "SEVEN." Is there precedent here? |

Hellraiser scared the raising hell out of me while I was watching it, but I can't even remember why it was scary. [/ QUOTE ] these movies always wigged me out because of the way the pinface guy in [censored]'s avatar (the "hellraiser," if you will) shot multiple CHAINS with hooks on them at his victims. this usually resulted in the people being impaled/ripped apart/strung up to die in some painful and creative way i'm pretty sure that's why i found them kind of scary. I second the Aliens movies, those things are scary. another one that I remember being scary was Event Horizon (though for some reason i expect many to disagree.) |
