I think this falls into 2 categories. Scariest is when you're too nervous to go to bed and keep checking inside the wardrobe. The other category of this is the most blood thirsty, gory film you've ever seen.
My top scariest is still the Exorcist. Though top scary moment; when the clown grabs the kid off the bed in Poltergeist. I still can't look at a clown even now.
Goriest film ever (and I hated it) was The Hostel. Gory films I liked - the Saw series, the Descent and Seven.

The Exorcist is my most scariest film too! I watched it when I was about 17 before the ban was lifted and that was the first and LAST time that I'll ever watch it! It was too scary!!!!!
I've heard The Hostel isn't very nice, so I've not seen that.
Went to watch a really horrible film at the cinema called The Devils Rejects and it was awful! It was very gory and way too violent for my liking. Would NOT recommend that one at all!
Horror films I like include The Evil Dead, The Queen Of The Damned, Hammer Horror's esp any with Christopher Lee as Dracula and A Company Of Wolves, although there are lots more.

Oh Nightmare on elm street the first one. What if its actually true and when you dream it happens in real life. errrrr
I love scary movies they don't bother me at all. I love all the SAW films any horror but FREDDY is the one that scares me. I think its because I have nightmares.....
Hostel was fine I thought SAW was worst. I think they copied SAW!

Hi Ineke, those hammer horrors were great. When I was a kid you knew it was time for bed the minute Peter Cushing appeared as a mad scientist because you knew Christopher Lee was going to appear as Dracula.
I haven't seen the Devil's rejects - though if it's really gory I don't think I'll bother. I thought the Descent was really scary because a group of women get trapped down an unmapped cave and have to find their way out - that freaked me out. I was claustrophobic before the monsters appeared.
Another film I've watched and thought was quite spooky was Ghost Ship - anyone else?

Oh my god i hate scary films!! Do you know i was really scarred for life watching a film when i was younger ...its the main reason i cant watch now....if anyone rememebers the name/recognises it this is what i rememeber;
Theres a medallion on a photoframe in an office thats shaking...it belongs to a disabled boy that somebody drowns in a bath...that scene itself is really distressing where somebody drowns the boy.........and i remember a wheelchair runing fast down a flight of stairs on its own..i think to injure/kill whoever murdered him.........aaah its giving me goosebumps its horrible!!

Right i reckon its a 70s film...and i remember a guy in a tracksuit.something about sports or a p.e type hall....im no help really!! Its just what i remember...it was on TV once my Dad was watching it (i must have been about 12 or something so it was about 1988) and i sat and watched it with him. I had nightmares for ages! But id love to know what the film is called so it would be great if your film buff found out................and if you have dreams like that i feel very bad for you!! Zoe stop eating cheese before bed!!! xxxx
P.S i think they burried the lad in some sort of shed outside....i think he was haunting people who did it to him.........and i know the title of the film is THE something..The haunting...The sh something...The shining?? No....Its The something though...just Two words......oh i hope you find out!!! xxxxx

Hi Nicki, the film is the Changeling. I saw it at the cinema. It's set in a big old gothic mansion which is haunted. A psychic investigator is called in by the owner to investigate. There are banging sounds which shake the house and a basketball keeps bouncing down the stairs. Doors slam etc. Turns out that the owner had his disabled son drowned in his bath and the banging noise which shakes the house is the sound of his fists banging on the bathtub while he was being drowned. He was then replaced by a fit young boy posing as the owner's son. It's the dead son's spirit that haunts his father.
I had nightmares after that one I must admit.

Hee Hee!!! I'm sure you'd love to see that film again Nicki!!!
Ghost Ship, haven't seen that one yet, but my Sister say's it's really good, so I must look out for it.
Please don't watch The Devils Rejects, it's just horrible 'real life' violence. It's just not nice at all.

Without a shadow of doubt it has to be the 60s classic PSYCHO.
It's frightening because it's plausible. "A boy's best friend is his mother"- the chilling words spoken by Anthony Perkins.
The shower scene still terrifies me but is pure cinema genius. I first saw this as a kid and was so scared I moved my bed into my brother's bedroom! Forget PSYCHO 2/3 etc- rubbish and an insult to Hitchcock.
In the 'silly' stakes I used to like watching Hammer Horrors on a Friday night. They were good for a laugh and meant the weekend had started. Forget Jonathan Ross on Fridays- bring back Hammer House!Forget JR in anycase- what a fool.
Love Bronnie
