I can never find out ones that really scare me, it is usually the ones with creepy little girls in that freak me out tho.

t depends on what you are afraid of - for example for me it's children or dolls/dummies - so Orphan or Magic do it for me. What is your biggest fear and I'll suggest a film to match :-)

Id go far back try some Hitchcock, Wes Craven, John Carpenter or George A Romero films, For exact films Id try "The Birds" and "Pyscho" for Hitchcock. For Craven Id go with the original "Hills Have Eyes" "Last House on The Left" and "Scream". Carpenter the first two "Halloween" movies and Romero the original "Of the Dead" series (Dawn, Day, etc)

If you mean SCARY rather than gut-churning, I'd start with the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre. You don't see nearly as much blood as you THINK you've seen but you feel drained when it's over. It still gets me. The first Halloween, Friday the 13th, and Nightmare on Elm Street also offer mucho jolts but the king of frights for me is The Shining. Nicholson's transformation from average joe to violent fruitbat is truly spine-tickling!

You should see PROM NIGHT!!! The killer is exactly the kind of guy you'd expect to go psyco and kill everyone. Me and my friend watched that last night and we were screaming all the time. The Unborn is supposed to be really scary, though I've never seen it. I'd also try 'The Haunting in Connecticut' and 'When a Stranger Calls' (I've never seen either buy my friend says the last one I mentioned is pure FREAKINESS!)
But whatever you do...do NOT see Sweeney Todd. Maybe you've seen it and I don't mean to criticize your favorite movie or seomthing, but It's like 2 1/2 hrs of your life you'll never get back. The story plot has no point and it's just blood and guts the entire time. So let me spare you, please! It's not scary either.

The plot of Sweeney Todd was to tell the true life tale of a guy who, driven by revenge, plots his rival's demise but gets sucked into depravity. How is that not a plot? The scares are in the atmosphere as well as ocassional fright moments. And the blood accounts for less than 10 mins of the movie.

I agree, it has a great plot. Sweeney is awesome! A lot better than Prom Night which was predictable and unoriginal.

I thought Sweeny Todd was awesome personally a cracking film:)

The Ring scared maybe, don't know if you have watched that one
It also depends on how you see scary, with alot of thriller in it? Or alot of blood and stuff
Because the movie Tamara has alot of blood in it and it wasn't really that scary but kinda sickining though :P

Let the Right One In, High Tension, Inside, A Tale of Two Sisters, Audition, Frontière(s)... Pretty much anything thing foreign is good. I'd go with High Tension or Inside they're both pretty intense and very good and scary.

Totally agree, foreign Horror movies are far scarier than anything Hollywood can do, and don't bother with the rubbish remakes either. The original Japanese Ringu was far scarier than Ring. Martyrs was pretty good, Calvaire and Sheitan i'd recommend but A tale of two sisters is definitely one to watch.

The original Ringu was plain boring

Hitchcock films, Rosemary's baby, the Shining (the Kubrick version is the best), Eraserhead, Carrie. Hitchcock is good for suspense and Kubrick films for surrealism. These type films are dread horror rather than shock horror which can work better on some people than others.

Ok I don't care if you've seen this and didn't think it was scary, and if that's the case you have major guts: HALLOWEEN! Watch the original and the first one. If that doesn't scare you maybe you should watch The Exorcist or Texas Chainsaw Massacre. TCM is not for the faint of heart though...

For gore and a good story I would suggest Cube. The movie is awsome. For a newer movie that I liked I would go with Midnight Meat Train. Pretty much anything by Clive Barker is a good choice. Another one that is good for story and gore is Battle Royale from Japan. That movie is great, but you do have to read it. If you want something that has action in it I would go for the Russian movies Night Watch and Day Watch. As for scary, there isn't much if anything that I find scary, so I can only reccomend ones that are done well.

A good double feature would be the original 1951 version of The Thing From Another World, followed by John Carpenter's 1980 (I think) remake called simply The Thing. Both great, creepy movies in their own way. Two completely different approaches to the same story.

To anyone that has ever travelled on the Underground in London, 'Creep' is pretty good. Also, 'Irreversible' while not a scary movie will leave you feeling sick!

I guess i'm like you where i see loads of horror, but none of it ever scares me. There are some that actually managed to do that though. Dead Silence, Slither, Silent Hill, Pulse, and maybe Boogeyman 2 and The Grudge. Just good films for your consideration

Any of the newer zombie movies. (Dawn of the Dead, 28 Weeks Later, Resident Evil)
They really scare me, especially if you watch them in the dark by yourself. It may be different for you, though. Either way, most of them are really good:) Although Resident Evil is more of an action movie!
RENT THEM!!!!
Another few I really like are Freddy Vs. Jason and Dark Ride. They're really good! And this Japanese Horror Movie called Reincarnation really scared me! It's in Japanese Subtitles, but definatly worth it!

The exorcist is scary. The hand that rocks the cradle and the ring are quite creepy. the haunting in connecticut is not scary but it does make you jump a bit. Halloween is fair scary and the grudge is ok. The thing and last house on the left are pretty scary. The omen is freeky but good . Paranormal activity is rubbish. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is scary.

thats it i think!
