Okay, what's it gonna be? What do you think is the scariest, most shittin'-in-your-pants flick that you've ever seen? (And no, "Schindler's List" does'nt count - I said "scariest", not "funniest").

My vote goes to "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre", the original, made by Tobe Hooper in '74. (Not the remake that's been going around lately. I've seen it, and it can't hold a candle to this baby). For a very low budget flick - Hooper was a college prof at the time and used friends and students to "star" in this lollapalooza - this thing rocks! The acting and photography naturally is'nt all that professional, and the movie just kind of schleps along until just 'bout the middle of it, and then - It's party time!!! Ol' Leatherface pops out of the bushes and turns that dude in the wheelchair into ground chuck. (I was kind of hoping he'd be the first to get it. And before anyone says anything, I say that because the whining little bitch would'nt stfu, not because he was "physically-challenged" or anything. "I'm hot", "I'm cold", "I'm tired", "I'm hungry" - Jesus Christ, enough already!). That's when the shit really hits the fan. From then on out, those little scamps have everything they can do to avoid becoming the main course on Leathy & Family's dinner table.

So....what's your nomination for all-time scariest flick?

You'll all have to forgive my incredibly humiliating attraction to all things mainstream, but I'm just going to blurt it out, film-geek ridicule be damned!

The Ring. That scene where those parents find the corpse of their girl huddled in the closet was by far the scariest I've ever seen. I bet I didn't look so tough at that particular instant. I do believe I even gasped while flinching, which was a first for me. Another nice one was the lead actress' character proudly proclaiming her benevolent little exorcism and her son's horrorstruck reaction.

TCM is good...when I was younger I was scared shitless of the Amittyville Horror.... the original that is.

"Frailty" was excellent and very scary in the classic sense.

The original "The Haunting of Hillhouse" Made in 1963. It had Julie Harris, Claire Bloom, Russ Tamblyn ... some other folks.

The Beast Within scared the living shit out of me when I was 15, as did Friday the 13th, Part 2 and My Bloody Valentine. Never seen Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

Probably the most intelligently chilling horror flick I've seen is Night of the Living Dead. It's groundbreakingly graphic for the '60s: when the dead little girl comes back to "life" and remorselessly stabs her pitifully pleading mother to death with the trowel.....

Another great one is Carnival of Souls.

Alien scared the snot out of me because I went in with the mistaken notion that it would be another space-epic like Starwars and such. When that critter came out of the guy's belly I levitated out of my chair.

The Exorcist-- a great film; you have to watch it even though it's so damn scary. Never forgot the first time I saw it, stayed with me for years.

I'd say "Night of the Living Dead," the original. The thought of being in a world where from one minute to the next the ground rules radically changed. Trying to cope with undead trying to eat you before you have a chance to understand how the heck they got actuated in the first place.

'The Entity' Managed to scare the shit out of me when I first watched it.

I just watched The Ring for the second time the other day and it actually caused me to have a nightmare. Luckily the phone didn't wake me up in the middle of it.

The Omen, even though itz typical Hollywood catholic- knocking.

I don't know but how about John Carpenter's 'The Fog.' The first time I saw it in the 80's it left an impression on me. Hahaha, not to say that I'm scared of anything now, but I guess it just reminded me of the town I grew up in on the coast where the fog actually got that thick and close to us.

From childhood I have avoided horror movies.

I haven't seen any of the movies listed. I tried to watch "The Shining" once but kept turning the TV off because it was making me sick.

<At age 8, I went with a friend to see "The Brain Eaters." Five minutes into this B&W "B" movie, I was so terrified (nothing had happened yet) that I told my friend I was going to the bathroom and left the theater instead and ran home. LOL>

Hey, I'm a big weinie.

Let's look at this on another level. Horror movies are just another part of the jews' psy warfare against our minds, souls and spirits. Look how many of you have been deeply impacted by scenes and images presented to you in these movies, all served up by UNCLE HYMIE, for YOUR BENEFIT, of course. Good ol' Hymie, always ready to entertain, AND take your money while he fucks with your brain.

These jews want to destroy our minds and they have no qualms about inserting SUBLIMINAL sounds, messages and images into their films and music along with the OVERT messages.

Read Dr. Wilson Bryan Key's books on subliminal advertising. In one of them he has a whole chapter dissecting THE EXORCIST. They went through it and found the subliminal images buried in single frames, which pass by your consciousness in a fraction of a second when viewed as a whole. There are also low-level sounds of pigs being slaughtered buried in the audio. He also mentioned periods of LOUD "white noise" silence (I think I recall experiencing that too in the Shining).

GODDAMIT, PEOPLE... we keep letting the jew into our heads in so many ways... and he's boiling us alive like the proverbial frog in the pot... destroying our lives, culture, morals, thought processes, society in SO MANY WAYS.... yet we barely notice it because the jewstream is so pervasive, its EVERYWHERE......

Entity, Night of the Living Dead (Original) do it for me.

Today they don't make as good ones because they won't cast normal or ugly people. So everything is too luscious, it never like real people in a genuinely bizarre and threatening situation. You see a movie from the seventies, you would still see ordinary people, even in substantial role. You don't really see that. Add to that the extreme semitical correctness, everything is pre-fab and ultimately boring. They could make some great horror films about niggers, hell there are plenty of plots daily in the news. Real black horror film, not funny. What could be more horrifying than trapped in a world where the source of the problem can't be named?

Yet another area where somebody with talent could do something.

HA! HA!

Yes, there are many reasons why your average Hollywood production is shit. Timidity, political correctness, enslavement to marketing demographics, and so on, create a truly stifiling atmosphere for any would-be artist. Not even to mention that Hollywood is [almost] a closed system; if you ain't born into the Kosher Kingdom, your fighting impossible odds.

Edit: Can't recall the last time a film creeped me out. Although Mulholland Drive had a truly dreadful atmosphere thanks to Lynch's awesome visual style.

I've always been into horror movies. There are some good sites on the net that review hundreds of horror movies that can give you some good recs.

Ademic man, maybe, just maybe some people like horror movies.
As much as the jews are powerful in hymiewood, do you actually think that they gather around a table and came up with the concept of horror movies to subliminally brainwash the Aryan masses? Next your going to tell me Hitchcock was a jew.

Sorry, I'm just getting a little tired of this jew behind every bush, jew hiding in the closet responsible for every little thing every single individual does not like. It's just fucking dumb.
I like horror movies and no kike has made me like them or brainwashed me. I'm a healthy Aryan gentleman who enjoys some horror movies.
It's that simple.

As for the original question of this thread, have to go with the the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, followed by the Exorcist, which was shot very well.

About 2 years ago, a trilogy of films came out documenting Ed Gein, Ted Bundy and Jeff Dahmer.
Gein, Bundy and Dahmer are all very scary movies. You can probably rent them at your local video store.
Scary because they are all real.
Truth is stranger than fiction sometimes.

Cannibal Holocaust.
http://www.cannibalholocaust.net

The movie starts with a guy going into the Amazon in search of a lost film documentary crew, and he finds their film. The second half of the movie is mostly the playing of this film. As it turns out, the lost crew was making a snuff piece, with the natives becoming their victims. What makes the movie so intense is its believability. In fact, a few days ago as I write this, an Amazon tribe killed 18 "white" diamond miners.

The leader of the film crew is a Jew-like guy, which is also true to life, as far as snuff goes. Another member of the crew is a tall Nordic guy with long blonde hair and mustache. This viewing experience, to me in a way, is the movie form of The Vinland Sagas, in which the Vikings battle Indians. The climax and ending are truly something to behold. I've seen alot of horror movies, but nothing like this.

The original "The Haunting of Hillhouse" Made in 1963. It had Julie Harris, Claire Bloom, Russ Tamblyn ... some other folks.

I agree with this one, though it was simply called "The Haunting". It was more eerie than shocking/scary, though it certainly had those elements too. Another good movie along this line was "The Innocents", starring Deborah Kerr.

Yet another area where somebody with talent could do something.

That movie is the Blair Witch Project.

Demonica,

How about if I were to have put a maniquin on your door step w/ long black hair over the face in a dirty gown... called your house w/ that 7 day "you're gonna die" stuff and then a minute later knocked on your door? Would that scare the shit outta ya after watching the Ring?

Nothing beats brutality like the 70's Italian horror flicks like Cannibal Holocaust and also Cannibal Ferox. Ever seen The Beyond (not to be confused with 1986's Lovecraft adaptation From Beyond), Zombie or Gates of Hell? Truly harrowing stuff.

I haven't seen those other ones. I will try to check those out. Thanks.

The reason Cannibal Holocaust reminded me of The Vinland Sagas is because in the book, the Vikings find some turned over canoes on the shore and they turn each one over to find a Skraeling which they then kill. :D

I have a question. Are the 'tribes' described on that site (cannibal holocaust) real tribes? if so, that another site to definatly prove blacks have not evolved along with us. Cheers

You are correct. I just did the web research, and the movie released in 1963 was called "The Haunting." It was based on Shirley Jackson's novel, "The Haunting of Hill House," first printing, 1959. The movie was slow paced and intelligent. Nothing about it was cartoon like. The suspense was done as well as any movie I’ve seen.

Yep, those are real tribes located in Venezuela.

The Thing made by John Carpenter in 1982 has got to be one of the most scariests films that i have watched, especially the scene where the doctor gets his hands ribbed off.

I agree with that. The Thing is a brilliant exercise in paranoia, with simply outstanding make-up FX. I dare say Carpenter's finest hour.

I still thought "The Innocents" was a good effort on the part of director Jack Clayton. And the scenes of the "ghost woman" in the glade were well-done, subtle, and very eerie, I thought. As to the name of the author of "The Turn of the Screw", it was Henry James. William James was Henry's famous psychologist brother.
