I know....not another poll question, but I'm curious, what's your favorite, ultimate scary movie?

For a long time it was "In the Mouth of Madness" by Halloween director John Carpenter, but I really liked "The Ring". It is one of the best real scary movies I've seen in a long time.

We are thinking about haveing some friends over for Halloween, I would like to see something really scary. Seamus I just got done watching The Ring not five minutes ago. I'm home alone, watching this pretty scary movie with the mute button on. I am such a wuss!

Psycho Beach Party!
Oh, and I like to watch the Rocky Horror Picture Show at midnight on Halloween at the local Roxy theatre. Toast, rice and playing cards are of course thrown all over the place.

Session 9 is the scariest movie I've ever seen. Jamie, my wife, walked out toward the end because it freaked her out so much.

Oh ya, Killer Clowns from Outer Space is a classic!
Don't forget Lobster Men from Mars!
I'm always one for scary movies, but Jeepers Creepers really freaked me out. I actually had to turn it off until the next day.

Can't go wrong with the horror staples:
The Exorcist
Alien
The Haunting (the original, not the crappy remake)
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Night of the Living Dead
The Thing (John Carpenter's version)
Evil Dead
Poltergeist
The Shining
I have friends who swear by the film Susperia but I've never seen it.

"Phase 4" does it for me. I dunno, there's just something about the hyper inteligAnt ants destroying humanity that freaked me out & never stopped.

I still have to see Killer Clowns since I thought it was cool, corny & scary, but still, for me, it's Trilogy of Terror. Don't remember it? Take a look at my post from last year for a reminder picture. (Inky, don't look!!)
That damn Zuni doll!

I have a soft spot for all of the E.A.Poe/Vincent Price films. They may not be as scary to todays' film buffs, but they boast the creepiest castles in film history (IMHO).

(interesting: this post is my #66th. spooky!)

"Suspiria" is not that scary. It's quite artsy, which makes it a lot different from most horror films I've seen, but it didn't give me nightmares the way "Silence of the Lambs" did. I liked the music in this film, but the composers didn't write enough of it -- they just keep repeating the same thing over and over again throughout the film and it gets annoying after a while. If you liked Jessica Harper in "Phantom of the Paradise" you should check this one out.
