I saw Romero's Land of The Dead a couple of weeks ago, and while it was scary, I went so that I could die having seen a Romero zombie movie in an actual theater. (All of the others came out when I was too young to go,) grats to Romero, he finally got a big budget for one of his zombie movies...
The scariest movie I've seen in a while would have to be The Ring. (American version,) I was staying at a friend's house the night before a flight to Atl., which I had to be at the airport for by 4:30. I had eaten a HUGE steak with way too many jalapenos on or near it, and two glasses of wine. I had chills through the whole movie, and in my food-induced delirium, this movie just got right to me. Creepy little evil girl who never sleeps, scares horses into suicide, makes people hear shit in their heads, etc... and NOW she's fucking with people from her cold wet grave... I think I got a total of 5 minutes of actual "sleep" that night, interspersed with lucid nightmares of that girl doing the creepy-walk through my friend's kitchen and living room. ugh...
Nice to see The Exorcist mentioned here, I saw it on TV when I was 7, and even the watered-down version made me run out of the room when her head spun around...
Also, when I was young, the Amityville Horror scared the pants off me, but when I actually bought the movie, along with the sequel, all I could do was laugh. All of the "horror" was merely IMPLIED, except in the second one where the kid starts ackin' crazy and starts doing his sister, and is all posessed and shit.

On the subject of newer movies,'White Noise' was pretty dam creepy but the ending sucked really bad. 'Hide and Seek', was a pretty scary movie that had the wife white knuckled a couple of times;It stars Robert De Niro and that little girl from 'The Cat in the Hat', and she plays a supurb job of being creepier than hell. But on the scary note, I watched 'Kingdom of Spiders' when I was aroud 10 or so, and had alcoholic-like dt's by seeing trantulas crawling all over the walls at night for a week or so afterward. Dont watch this movie if you dont like spiders!

Did it ever! I would've loved to have gotten my money back for that one because I was completely suckered in by the notion of a contemporary horror film that deals with the E.V.P. phenomenon, something I'd been interested in for many years prior. Unfortunately, I found myself increasingly disappointed with the film as the minutes rolled on. By the time it was over, it was painfully obvious to me that the only thing that I actually enjoyed in the film was the disturbing imagery of the "shadow trio" (if you've seen the film then you know what I'm talking about), but sadly it was a great piece of imagery that ended up wasted on a lackluster film.

There are some good choices out there: The Omen, Silence of the Lambs, and while not technically a horror movie, Jaws was scary as shit.
BUT, the hands down winner has to be "The Exorcist". It's not even close for me.
Vasduten - I saw Dawn of the Dead in the theater. I may have 12 years old. It seemed scary at the time. I'm looking forward to seeing Land of the Dead. I'm a sucker for Zombie and Vampire movies. 28 Days Later started out good, but flamed out quickly with the other sub-plot.
Most horror movies these days are disappointing. I did enjoy The Devils Rejects though.

ET. i was five i guess and that creature scared the living daylight outta me, i always thought he would pop from under my bed and stretch his neck... i've never rent a horror movie because of bloody ET...
go ahead and laugh

The only movie so far that I have found to be slightly scary to me was The Grudge. I watch every scary movie I can get my hands on. I am on a mission to watch something that will give me nightmares for months...lol

i am a huge fan of horro movies but till this day i have yet to see one that will scare me. the reason being i sbecause u know none of them will ever happen in real life. the ones that they make that are based on real life facts come out looking stupid so they dont scareme either. i guess they are gonna have to do something really good that can really happen fo rme to get a scare. until then i love them but they dont scare me. i have to admit i have this crazy obsession with michael myers. i think he is the greatest character ever made. just something about him and the halloween theme song that i love. i hope he never dies!

If you like The Grudge Layla you should check out the original Japanese version. It's called Ju-On and it's a lot better. More scares too. Another good scary movie is The Eye. Well worth checking out but stay away from the sequel because it's no good.
