The 'Have you checked the children?' line is from 'When a Stranger Calls'. Thats one scary movie.

Scariest? Probably 'The Omen', but also think that 'Carrie' is proper scary! And 'The Others', just because of its subtlety.

Hey, thanks a lot JinxtheCat for the title - I've been searching for it all over the place.

We're missing a title here!

MissyA, what's your favourite and most scary horror film?

Two faces of evil from Hammer House of Horrors and Pet Semetary are my favourites.

I can't believe no-one's mentioned The Exorcist! I saw that when I was about 13 and I didn't sleep for weeks! I think what scared me more than the film, was the whole hype surrounding - a particular story I heard was of Nun's standing outside the cinema trying to stop people going in to see it. That really scared me for some reason.

For modern day, I'd have to say Blair Witch. It's just that very last part when you see him standing in the corner, dead. Ooooh, chills!

Thanks for all your answers, my scariest have to be The Ring 1 and then Poltergist ( watched it when i was young), although I haven't seen many of the scary movies you've all mentioned. Blair witch was good too, oh yeah and halloween.

I liked Ring 1 becuase unlike most horror films today (like Boogyman and Cabin Fever and jeepers Creepers 2, this list could be endless...) it actually had a good story line which was interesting and continued right till the end of the film. Horror films today lack good story lines they are just full of special effects, just to make you jump. At least the Ring 1 had a lot of mystery to it.

I was dissapointed when I watched The exorcist though- didn't scare me that much. But I agree with tali122 - the music in the shining is def. what makes the movie scary.

I really want to spend one day just watching all these scary movies so I will compile a list soon, but I doubt any of my friends will join me as none of them will be brave enough!

I will definetly have to watch Ringu and Dark Water, candyman and amittyville and the omen. Lol, I will not be able to sleep after watching all of them. Thanks again, any more names would be appreciated.

By far and away it has to be the original Alien film. It was released in the UK in 1979 - I was 13 at the time, but very tall for my age, therefore it was down to me to buy the tickets for me and my four mates.

We all went to see it one Saturday night, and it was only about 10 years later when we met up at a party that each one of us admitted that we were so scared that we wanted to cry.

I distinctly remember running home from the Elephant & Castle ABC cinema, "because the alien might be round the back of the nbus stop".

Fave horror film (tho not what you could call scary): Dead & Buried. Plenty of gore (paralysed but still conscious burns patient gets hypodermic in the eyeball from sexy nurse - classic!) & nice twist at the end (which was later nicked by Michael Night Shyamalan...)

Only horror film to give me the shivers: The Wicker Man
...don't know if this is classed as horror, but 'Don't Look Now' starring Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie is always scary... gives me the heebeejeebees everytime... now whenever I see a small girl in a hooded red rain mac, I wait for the...I won't say, in case anyone wants to watch it...
