Quote:
In the wake of such Satanic-themed thrillers as Rosemary's Baby, The Exorcist and The Omen comes The Sentinel. When New York fashion model (Cristina Raines) splits with her fiance (Chris Sarandon) and moves into an old brownstone, she soon discovers she has more than she bargained for in the lease. As luck would have it, a mysterious blind priest (John Carradine) who lives upstairs happens to be guarding the doorway to Hell, and she has been chosen as his replacement. Incidentally, when the door is finally opened, out spills an assortment of deformed humans whom director Michael Winner hand-picked from hospital wards and circus sideshows. ~ Jeremy Beday, All Movie Guide
Review

Nothing scares the hell out of people like religion, and the Catholic Church, with its centuries of history and arcane rituals, has figured in dozens of horror pictures that seek to exploit the combination of fear and respect that people (non-adherents in particular) hold for its priests. The Sentinel certainly follows in the footsteps of films like The Exorcist which apply a Catholic theological approach to questions of heaven and hell, but the film opens with some stylistic cops from Rosemary's Baby, a more doctrine-neutral occult tale. New York model Christina Raines' new apartment building is populated by a group of eccentric neighbors (including Burgess Meredith as the nosy Ruth Gordon character) who expend an inordinate amount of effort to draw her into their circle. When it's discovered that they may or may not be figments of her imagination, The Sentinel's story finds some nice twists of its own, and ultimately succeeds as a creepy little trifle for those who can accept the Catholic Church as a sinister institution that forces innocent nonbelievers into servitude at the gates of Hell. Star watchers will also enjoy seeing future lead players such as Jeff Goldblum, Jerry Orbach, and Christopher Walken in minor supporting roles

Favorite scary movie of all time is "The Echo" (2008) a remake of Filipino horror Sigaw.

"An ex-con moves into an old apartment building, where he encounters a domestic problem involving a police officer, his wife, and their daughter. When he tries to intervene, however, a mysterious curse entraps him" Yeah another curse one but The Echo beats them all (The Grudge, The Ring).

Dont watch it alone..

The last movie that really scared me was "Room 1408" with John Cusack. I even had a strange dream that loosely went along the theme of the movie a few weeks ago.

I'm stil waiting for that horror movie that would scare the hell out of me.

You have to see this or this movie, it's really scaring the hell out of you, most of my friends say to me. So I look at those movies, mostly by my self, but at most I just yawn about the movie. So i'm stil waiting.

That's because you haven't got any imagination at all! IF you had, you would be scared. That is what some of my friends have told me.

I'm not saying that a movie is bad like that

Most of those horror movis like the thing...Alien...A very good indeed but they didn't scare the hell out of me.

Well, that if this tense i feel, when I see thise movies, is the same as being scared.

But I also feel this tense when I see The Terminator or any good action movies.
