Not much for horror movies, but I’ve seen a few. Saw the top two in AIT at the rec center and of course, who hasn’t seen Jaws and Alien. Anyway, I ran across this and thought it would make for interesting conversation. All Time Scariest Movies Thoughts? 7mm

Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

9 yrs old. Parents didnt allow horror movies. Went to a friends and watched Salems Lot. Done! Never saw a true horror movie again besides a few clips here and there. Couple yrs ago moved woman in, she got some movies together, I grabbed some grub. Sit down and Saw was coming on. Screw that! Psycho bitch! She moved on quick like.

Fatal Attraction. Glenn Close is scary As-F! Stalker scary!
Ok, not your “horror movie” scary, but that movie will make even the most unfaithful among us think twice before cheating.
The Exorcist, The Omen, Rosemary’s Baby (originals, not ANY bs “re-makes”). There were also a few, early 80s, lesser know horror movies that rode the wave of the Halloween, Friday the 13th and Freddy Kruger franchises, like Happy Birthday to me and Mother’s Day, that (in my memory) were scary, but that was 40 years ago :-).
I would like to include the “Living Dead” movies, by George Romero, but they’ve become more “humorous”/campy in my mind over the years.
Lastly (honorable mention), Ishtar, with Dustin Hoffman and Warren Beatty. It’s been over 30 years, I’m sure, but that movie was SCARY! ..... at least scary BAD 😁

I never thought Silence of the Lambs was scary at all, don't know why it makes these lists. More of a suspense movie than a horror story to me.
Exorcist is no. 1. Poltergeist is way up there. John Carpenter's version of The Thing ought to make these lists, excellent monster movie.

'Silence Of The Lambs' is scary because it makes you realize there may be people out there who are capable of such evil deeds. Most others are about making you jump out of your seat by surprising you and shouting "boo".

I've always thought that most horror movies could be brought to an abrupt end with an ought-6.
I could wish a lot of things on my worst enemy but neuropathy ain't one of them.

The Birds was probably the scariest to me because it doesn't seem as implausible as most of the genre does. When I see thousands of grackles gathered up in a parking lot, that scenario goes through my mind. Hate those damn things.

Friday the 13th. Saw it on the USS Midway while on cruise and it had the whole ready room yelling. The Airwing Commander, Cdr Roger Flowers, happened to be walking by the ready room, heard all the commotion and he had to come in and see what was going on. I think that was the scene where the arrow went through the guy’s throat. 😳
