The original Dracula with Bela! "Listen to the creatures of the night".

I agree that the first two Alien movies are top notch along with The Thing with Kurt Russell. The first Halloween...I see a patern developing here. :rotfl::rotfl:

The films were there is a crazy killer after everyone, dont scare me, but make me angry. Why dont the people stay together instead of going one by one to slaughter? Why dont they pick up something they could use against the killer? The victims almost deserve everything they get.

I see it too, but there are a few movies that last past 2 or 3 and are still good. The "Friday the 13th" series for instance. I never really thought they were that creepy (I was more of a Freddy Kruger fan growing up) but the "Friday the 13th" movies did make it all the way up to 6 or 7 before turning into total rubbish. Actually the "Freddy vs. Jason" movie was alright but I looked at it more as another Freddy movie more than a Jason movie.

"Jason goes to hell' was like the 8th movie they made and it was complete crap. VERY very low budget!

The 1973 version of The Exorcist.

I remember after the movie I had to walk back home it was pitch black windy and i had to walk down a 2mile old creepy railroad track, the carriages would creak in the wind and a loud bang every now and then would happen. I was 14 or 15 at the time and complety freak out:rotfl:scared sh*tless. Then when i got home i had a look under the bed:rotfl:Just in case some devil or something was hiding under there!:rotfl::rotfl:

Which reminds me. SCREAM was a good one the first time I saw it. NOBODY knew how that was going to end. Now, it's a boring movie to watch.

Good one!

Yet once you get married in life it's no longer is scary to watch. It's just like watching your PMSing wife on the T.V. or something!

I think I'll throw The Blair Witch Project in the pile as well. A movie that was creepy and unsettling mostly by inference and without having to resort to a lot of over the top special effects.

OK, that's been several Halloween movies listed so far. What is the creepiest part of the movie for those that state Halloween? What scene was it that got to you?

Good one!

I agree. For one of the lowest budgeted movies ever made it sure did meet all the criteria for a good solid horror movie. It seemed so real the way they made it!
