that was a comedy, not really horror. just say'n...

Exorcist still rules after so many years... just everything about it has that feel to it. the camera work, the music, the acting, everything. The Omen was surprisingly low on the list but still a good list.

Reply to This

Hey, CHlmsl", thanks for taking the time to comment! I agree, "The Exorcist" is still Powerful, even today!

Reply to This

"the Descent" scared me so bad. It has to be my #1 scariest movie. I almost pissed myself

Reply to This

It was claustrophobic yes, but I wouldn't say scary.

Reply to This

Hey, Bradley, I agree "The Descent" was Great! * sure BEAT "The Cave"* Have You seen "Dog Soldiers"?
Thanks for commenting!

Reply to This

I have to say most of the movies that have scared me are already on your list so I wont say them. I'll just tell you that the movie "CopyCat" scared the hell out of me when I first saw it.

Reply to This

Hey, Nedan, Wow! yes! Harry Connick jr. was actually psycho in that role! Thanks for taking the time out to read this and comment! You ever see him in the movie "Bug", the man "bulked" up. *body by piano*

Reply to This

I hate cheap scares in movies. The big (BUMP!) or the dumb cat jumping out. it's hard to find a movie that dosn't rely soley on that mechanic. The Descent has some of that, but is also genuinely creepy. I hope the sequel dosn't suck so bad it ruins the original. It looks bad.

Reply to This

Hey, Bradley, Wow! I usually think sequels are a BAD idea, very few have outshone the originals. Marshall is Ex. Producing, but I bet they screw this up! * too bad, too *
I know what ya mean bout "Bumps", cheap scare... was WAITING All thru "Paranormal Activity" for those!
