There's a lot of movies that have their moments. In Ghost Story where the guy falls through the floor in the old house and breaks
his leg then has to sit there and wait in the dark while his friends go get help. The sound of footsteps slowly walking down the long flight of stairs getting closer and closer before finally coming around the corner still sends chills straight up my spine.

Event Horizon was particularly frightening if you were raised Christian and spent a lot of time wondering what the Biblical Hell would look like. That's what got me about it.
The Ring and Sixth Sense were pretty scary and left me unsettled for a while. Shyamalan's style made certain scenes in particular pretty terrifying. Signs is similar in that regard. In general, though, supernatural movies are less terrifying than things that are or could be real. Session 9, for example, is terribly disturbing as a movie, but the message itself is that the evil lives inside a lot of people. |

Contagion
I know not technically a horror but it’s scary to think this can and does happen. Most or the actual “horror” isnt really scary to me, i mean some are pretty creepy. Just not to the point im up all night haha |

I just watched "Schindler's List" on Netflix again because my SO had never seen it.
The way they distract the parents outside so they can round up the children to be tricked off and gassed, the adult prisoners who even then held back the parents from fighting the SS in charge.... 
The precious few who hid in a latrine to hopefully escape for a few days more....
The utter realism of this movie is hurtful to my soul. I don't care if you eat bacon or can't recite a single Torah verse, if you are on this site, you are a modern day Jew & you better start getting used to it, and planning accordingly.
You can't think "oh well the left needs us, we have value to them because we are doctors/welders/etc".,.. their hate for us outweighs their logic. Hell if they were capable of logic and reason, they wouldn't be leftists. We must resist the left with all of our being. They ban AR's, you think of ways to hide them. You start planning for life as a hunted animal before they make you one for real, and you might make it. |

Scariest move I ever saw was The Grudge. As a kid and later in HS and college I never really watched scary movies. My friends decided they wanted to watch this one so I went along. Thing is, if you're used to watching scary movies then this one probably scary, but not really a stand out considering it's only been mentioned once in this thread so far. However, for me with no scary movie defenses, it WRECKED me, lol. I couldn't look at a staircase for weeks. The theater version got toned down to PG-13 so the uncut version is way more disturbing and rounds the movie out a lot better. If you haven't seen it (or only saw the PG-13 version), the uncut version is definitly worth watching.

Original Blair Witch, the fact those two were walking due North and ended up in the same spot each night did something awful to me. I spent a lot of time in the woods growing up. It was like there was no escape from the horror of that witch.

best picks already taken. I like the Exorcist and the Thing (JCarpenter ver)
I wanted to add 30 Days of Night for trying really hard to make a scary vampire movie after all the romance and Goth action films most have turned into. |

The 1956 Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Its allegory about invasion, alienation, possession if the individual, and subversion of normalcy still resonates with me ever since I first saw it at age 12 during a late-night Creature Feature.

Although I have seen worse movies since, I saw Friday the 13th when it came out in May of '80. The very next night I was night time bass fishing alone in a pirogue in a lake full of cypress trees.
Very creepy. It was hard to relax and enjoy myself. The Ring kept me from sleeping well for a couple of nights. Not many hit me like that. |

Manhunter (the original).
That opening scene with the killer (shown through his eyes) quietly walking through the house at night up to the parents bedroom, and then just showing the women reaching over to her husband before it cuts away was just brilliant. The investigator back in the bedroom recounting the following events was much more bone chilling than actually showing it. Saw it at the midnight movies when I was about twenty and when I got back home at 2:30am, I spent the next hour or so double checking every lock and window in the house. |

I’ve never seen a movie that scared me. I like horror though, it’s entertaining. Never seen Event Horizon, I’m gonna check it out. I will say though.... That movie was the only one I remember waking out of when it was over, and everyone was dead silent until they hit the lobby. The first thing I heard anyone say (besides me and the wife, I'd already read the book) was "what the fuck" |

The original Thai movie, Shutter, is a pretty decent ghost movie. This movie, along with Cello (Korean), and A Tale of Two Sisters, confirmed what I picked up from the Japanese Ring, Grudge, etc. movies: they got some mean ghosts in that part of the world.
