I remember watching The Ring with a friend at his house when we were about 12.

7 days later I was staying at a cabin by a lake surrounded by woods with different friends, and I don't know if they noticed me sitting in the corner like

Event Horizon
The Thing
The Ritual

There are others on my to-see list that I'm sure rank up there, but the spouse is not a fan of some types of horror films. I have to find time to watch them alone.

Prince of Darkness, if you're a certain type of science nerd

The People Under the Stairs seems to get some people.

PT was fucking horrifying. It was so fucking scary I noped the playstation right the fuck off.

Made my teenage nephew play through in the dark.

I walked out of the room to take a leak. He deleted the demo from my PlayStation. HE DELETED THE DEMO FROM MY PLAYSTATION. Download was no longer available and never would be again.

Damn that would have made a great game.

Most "scary" movies are just dumb or funny to me. Event Horizon though is a bit scary but, not the top of the list.

One of the few movies I felt gave me a bit of chill up my spine is:

PANDORUM (2009) - TRAILER [HD] Updated

Now the scariest creature imagined to me are the weeping angles of Dr. Who TV series.

@44Punk

I cant say I blame him for deleting it. It's that terrifying.

I remember playing Resident Evil on PS1 as a wee lad. It was scary but not too bad. PT was next level shit. Something about that demo caused such a visceral fear response in me and I could only play it a few minutes at a time before giving up. Curiosity would get the better of me and I'd try again. Nope nope nope. I think it's still on my PS4 but I have no inclination to play it again. Kojima is a legend.

Anyone remember a movie from 1987 called The Kindred?

Not a well known movie, but it fucked me up when I saw it.

Phantasm
A Nightmare on Elm street. The second wasn't bad. The rest were. Now, they seem comical as said above.
Exorcist
poltergeist

A lot of good movies have been mentioned but few have been scary to me. The gory stuff isn't scary.

Every time this gets asked, I usually say The Changeling or The Shining. I give honorable mention to The Woman in Black 1989. Ouija Origin of Evil was a good recent one.

It’s kinda hard to say what’s the scariest movie. It’s so subjective. Ghost/Supernatural stuff is what usually creeps me out.

What movie featured a plumber getting his fingers chopped up in a garbage disposal and suffocated by a pipe leaking a blackish substance while he crawled under it? That, was unforgettable in my adolescent brain...!

View Quote

I know exactly which movie you are talking about, as I remember the exact same scenes! I believe the disposal switch was even taped up, and you could see the switch fighting the tape.

I can't remember the name of the movie though, and it will haunt me until I figure it out.

Gee, thanks!

@MarthaStewart

I found one of the clips!

Evil Disposal

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtsBcfVPagM

Per the comments, it's from Amityville: The Evil Escapes! I thought for sure it was an Amityville movie, but could never figure which one. I kept thinking it was called The House in Amityville or something like that...

Mystery solved!

Scary is subjective. As a young kid, it had to be Phantasm. Even the scenes when you weren't supposed to be scared were dark and ominous. The music was just right. The evil wasn't well defined. After that a calm night in the darkness was scary.

I'm not sure that it scared me at the time of watching it, but when I am out in the woods in the dark hunting I always think back to the Blair Witch Project.
