    Scariest Horrors

    Need a few more frightening horror films to download. Has there been anything, as an adult, that you've watched that genuinely terrified you?

    I don't like watching Stigmata by myself. Blood and gore is fine but you know what you are getting in advance. But the religious possession type films scare the crap out of me.

        The Others is good

        But don't just rely on films. If you want the creepiest ghost stories try M R James or Sheridan Le Fanu the two greatest ghost story writers ever.

            Agree with Grudge. The old films are the best, the original House was much creepier than the last one with all the special effects, kids' faces in curtains etc. Maybe when CGI is a bit more convincing.

              Believe it or not I found the Woman in Black dead scary and I've been through the whole gamut of Evil Deads etc...

              My missus, who winces at seeing a plaster being put on on telly, thought it was utter tripe!

                I agree - nicely creepy. We watched it as a family when it was on film4 recently.

                The Thing
                The Exorcist
                Grease 2

                  I actually quite enjoyed this

                  Devil (2010) - IMDb

                  The original "hitcher"

                  "House" mark I

                  "Final destination" always gets mrs V going.

                  Original "Omen"

                  "The Wraith"

                  "Near Dark"

                  and of course "Resident Evil" & "Underworld" but that may have something to do with the star's outfits.

                    I like the classic Hammer Horrors, but they are more comedy than scary.

                    Don't like the religious possession stuff - too many hellfire and brimstone sermons as a kid.

                    One remake of The Thing had me going, especially the bit where they were going to cut into a body and it turned into a set of huge jaws which chomped the chap wielding the scalpel.

                    And the bit at the end where there are only two guys left and they don't know whether to trust each other or not.
