Obviously inspired by the two recent movie threads . . .
What is the scariest movie you have ever seen? For me, I would probably have two categories, scariest fantasy, and scariest reality.
Scariest Fantasy: Silent Hill (possibly the scariest movie I have ever seen)
Scariest Reality: Silence of the Lambs tied with The Shining

Probably The Ring. I used to love scary movies, but now I can't bear to watch them... I get so scared for ages afterwards!

@highwire: All work and no play . . . *shudder*
@Bookworm: I had nightmares for weeks! Even the sounds from that movie freak me out. *la la la happy place happy place happy place!*

@.twist.: I just thought about The Strangers the other night . . . LO was up at 2:30 a.m. and I passed by our front door (which is all glass) and thought about that movie.

@.twist.: The Strangers freaked me out so much!
And I agree that Silent Hill was pretty scary. Paranormal Activity kind of made me scared to sleep for a few days.

I generally refuse to watch scary movies because I don't really enjoy them. I still can't watch that one scene in The Ring. The Grudge. I screamed in the theater during The Descent.

@FutureMrsMcK: Ugh at the end where she comes out of the TV? I feel sick just thinking about it!

@FutureMrsMcK: The descent! I was trying to remember the name of that movie.. a huge group of us watched it at a friends house and I screamed so loud that everyone else was freaked out!

@FutureMrsMcK: I LOVED The Descent! That is a great one for being freaked out. haha. I like scary movies when they actually are freaky!
@MsLipGloss: haha, just mentioning that you thought about it while walking by the front door gave me chills. Seriously one of the most freaky movies ever.

@JoJoGirl: Yep, that part. I saw it once in the theater, screamed bloody murder and cover my eyes every time since (because for some dumbstupid reason I've seen it more than once).
@illumina: I went with a big group of friends to see it in the theater several years ago...we all screamed. And later, when we were going home my BFF ended up spending the night because neither of us wanted to have sleep alone, lol (pre-DH).

@FutureMrsMcK: @JoJoGirl: @illumina: @highwire: @.twist.: Totally forgot about The Descent! We own this one - soooooo scary!

@FutureMrsMcK: It's so funny when people scream in the theatre... I hold my hand over my eyes when I think something scary might happen so I don't do it, but I remember an exbf screaming during Blair Witch 2, it was the funniest thing ever!

@MsLipGloss: Seven just really really bothered me. I still can't watch it.

@FutureMrsMcK: Ugh. I had an ex-boyfriend drag me to the midnight showing of The Ring on Halloween in the theatre. I didn't sleep at ALL that night.

Rob Zombie's remake of Halloween scared the crap out of me!! I used to love scary movies. After watching that one, I can't handle them anymore.

@illumina: I've screamed at exactly 3 movies (in the theater) in my life: Jurassic Park (I was little and scared of the T-Rex), The Ring and The Descent.

@regberadaisy: It bothers me on the *there are really freaks like that out there* level. *shudder*

This thread has brought make some great memories... I remember when myself and 3 friends were sat on my bed at uni in pitch darkness watching one of the Scream movies when we didn't realise the door had opened and shut a flatmate was standing infront of the door... when she spoke we all totally freaked out and kept screaming as she walked towards us!

Anything demonic/possesion/exorcism-related. Hate it ALL. What was that one--the Emily Rose one...nopenopenope. I also hate the Paranormal Activity ones. I get scared watching them, but I think I get MORE scared later on when I start thinking about all of...that. Ick.

The Ring for me too! I saw this in college and my roommate and I slept in the same bed that night because we were afraid of our TV. Ha!
I'm not a big scary movie person though...freaks me out too much.

@ms.janedoe: The Exorcism of Emily Rose. That was a great movie!

Ahhh The Ring for sure! I watched it in the middle of the day in a dorm room with friends and I was still completely terrified. I think it ruined scary movies for me - anything that looks remotely like The Ring (The Grudge, Mama) I will. not. see.
cantaloupe / 6206 posts
Has anyone seen the original version of The Ring? I think it's Japanese... no way I could bring myself to.
GOLD / wonderful pomegranate / 28905 posts
@MsLipGloss: it's a fantastic movie! I just can't watch it again, ever.

@MsLipGloss: @Bookworm: omg, Silent Hill scared me so so much. I hate looking at the movie box. *shudder*
I can't handle watching scary movies anymore!

Funny story about The Grudge. I watched it one night with my live-in college boyfriend. After it was over I was half asleep and J went to the bathroom. The TV was still on but it was a blue screen. All the other lights in the house were off. Out of the corner of my justbarelyawake eye I see a huge shadow, low to the ground, crawling across the living room floor towards our bedroom.
I have never.ever.ever screamed so hard in my life. I threw my head under the covers sobbing, sure I was about to die. Of course it was my asshole of an ex trying to scare me. I'm still traumatized by it. Asshole.

@Leialou: I can't handle them either - I am such a fraidy cat these days!

Has anyone seen the fourth kind? I've heard that's really scary but haven't seen it.
pomelo / 5469 posts
@FutureMrsMcK: oh my gosh! that is funny, but so so mean! Is that's not when he became an ex is it? I would be so mad if DH did something like that... as he knows not to scare me.. I can't take it these days, I'd get so upset.
pomelo / 5469 posts
@.twist.: Haha! It's almost 9pm here now, so dark and I'm sat in the living room on my own and have to keep checking over my shoulder!

@.twist.: hahaha I'm at work and I just watched the trailer for The Ring (because I love to torture myself) and I jumped a mile when my co-worker's phone rang!
Oh but good news - we're all safe now because no one has a VCR anymore.
