What's your favorite horror movie and what's the scariest movie scene you ever saw ?

Only one movie has given me nightmares for weeks on end, and that movie is Virtual Nightmare. It is a low-budget TV movie, but it freaked me out more than any other movie possibly could. I've been trying to find it again, but I end up asking myself: Is it worth it? Do I really want the nightmares to begin again? *Shivers*

Favorite horror film would have to be The Ring. It's so creepy and disturbing. The Descent is another good one.

When the camera pans out at the end and she's stuck way down in the caves.

OMG

Creepiest moment for me is in The Texas Chainsaw Masacre when they are at the dinner table. They are trying to get the grandpa or whoever to use that axe. Ugh. Thanks for reminding me of that. I refuse to ever watch that movie again. That's one movie I wish I could erase from my memory.

My favorite horror movie?...hmmm, that's a hard one,...I've seen many that I really like(not too many recent ones though)...Vincent Price movies are so awesome,The first Halloween, The Fog, Amityville Horror(w/James Brolin), ....The first Texas Chainsaw Massacre was pretty creepy & gross....& the scariest which to this day I won't watch in the night by myself has to be The Exorcist.....

Favorite horror movie: Misery hands down
Scariest: that's a tough one. I can't name just one.... Pet Sematary... it was just so jumpy. IT... I HATE clowns (I thought watching it would flood the scariness out of my head.... it didn't) and the Paranormal Activity films (in parts) because of the really creepy effect and just how they were made. Very jumpy...especially in the cinema or on your own after dark

I've also got to go with the Exorcist. I remember begging my dad to take my friend and me to see it in the theater (I was 11 or 12 at the time). I still remember my buddy covering his eyes during the exorcism scenes. Maybe it was so scary at the time for me because Linda Blair was about our age. But I watched it again recently and it's still frightening. I think it's because it takes itself so damn seriously (of course the subliminal death masks that keep popping up help too).
By the way, have any of you watched an obscure film by Roman Polanski (starring & directing) called "The Tenant"? Because it definitely has the scariest scene involving a basketball that you'll ever see. I believe that scene seared itself into my memory the moment I saw it.

Jaws and George Romero's The night of the Living Dead

My fav. horror movie to this day is "The Exorcist" ever since I saw it in the movies when I was five. My fav. scene is when her head does a 180 after they were talking about the man who was murdered the same way.

I got into horror and stuff at an early age - along with some weird stuff going on around my bro and I as kids - so I don't get scared. I do get the sort of cool-chill though. Films that have had that effect on me are Blair Witch Project and Paranormal Activity. I know they both represent Found Footage films but I think what they have in common with SKs methodology (and therefore our phenomenology) is the homely, unassuming, realness. I also include [i]Poltergeist[/] and The Exorcist in there, too.

My favorite horror movie is a tie between Carpenter's The Thing and Kubric's The Shinning. The scariest, however, is The Exorcist.
Wow, thats a lot of "The s".lol

The Strangers scares the bejeebers out of me. Way to real and possible. Scariest scene-



The Excorcist, The Brood, The Grudge were all way cool.
