Movies that scare the $#!t outta you

[turtlefanforever]

In honor of the spookiest month of the year coming up. How about we all list movies that scare the heck outta us? Even if you're a little embarrassed to admit. What movie(s) scares or scared you a profound amount when first watching?

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Piranha. The original, mind you. Watched a week-long killer-creature marathon when I was about 9, and that was the ONLY one that scared me- even the sequel didn't bother me, but THAT one gave me nightmares for weeks! Didn't help that people were finding "piranhas" in our local lake occasionally around that time. They were actually the somewhat related but vegetarian pacu fish, but still.... To this day, I still don't like swimming where I can't see what's in the water.

[ranger_scout]

Moments from Jaws and Return to Oz really do scare the living daylights out of me. However, as the great leader of the TMNT once said, "Fears are just in our minds and we have the power to overcome them."

[TLP]

[Jephael]

I think I've become to desensitized by horror and violence at this point. Hardly anything scares me anymore, except when it comes to two things: giant bugs and creepy, homicidal marionettes. Put either of those in a film, and I'll most likely crap my pants!

Oh, Jesus.

Never seen it, but read about it. Having read about it, I'm almost certain I'll never, ever see it.

That said: You definitely win. NOTHING could possibly be more horrifying than THAT. Now people are gonna go either watch it read about it, and they'll never fully be able to erase it from their memories.

Thanks a f*ckton, You. :trazz:

Meanwhile, movies in general don't affect me, but anything with wrist slashing or graphic depiction of wrist veins, for some reason, makes me highly uncomfortable. That one scene in Nightmare on Elm St. 3, that's pretty bad. I actually sometimes get a little dizzy watching that.

Not blood and gore in general, for some reason, I'm fine with all that stuff in buckets. Specifically wrist veins, is the problem. ((Shudder))

[Slade]

I'm a little odd when it comes to something like this. Most people may not ever pick these 3 movies, but anyway..

1. Anaconda. reason snake phobia

2. Twister. reason, just because a twister is a real thing and they happen around here during certain times and I never want to be caught in one. Actually love the movie though.

3. The Omen. reason, just f*ck that movie.

[Zak The Neutrino]

Pet Cemetery

The Woman in Black

There was another one that freaked me out recently. I can't remember the name but this family moved into this house and some demon took over the mom.

[Netkeeper]

I get spooked by things involving demons. Not the monster-looking kind, the Paranormal Activity kind.

That's the only horror that's managed to remain with me after I stopped watching the movie. I guess because it seems like it's a thing that could possibly happen. Some kind of entity targeting you and disrupting your life in small ways that gradually build up and drive you crazy?

[AT-Man]

Ringu and Grudge spooked me the most, couldn't sleep without lights on for a while.

Pet Semetary also, when I was younger.

[Wildcat]

Child's Play when I was a kid. I remember having nightmares. Funny that it turned out to be my favorite horror series but guess we all like being scared sometimes...it's why we celebrate Halloween right?

I hate spiders so Arachnophobia always makes feel creepy-crawly.

The Final Destination movies creeped me out because accidents, no matter how unlikely, can actually happen.

[Krutch]

The first time I saw The Descent(before it came to America) it scared the crap out of me.

[plastroncafe]

The Exorcist
The Handmaid's Tale

[Icebot]

Scream scared me.

[Shark_Blade]

^Scream was just stupid teenagers on drugs. What's to be scared of them? :lol:

Sinister
Insidious 3
It Follows
Triangle
The Shining
Juon 2
Final Destination
Saw

Fun scary movies tbh. :)

[Storm Eagle]

That sure as hell wasn't why I did it. Anyway, as for my picks:

The Wanderers: It's a movie set in the Bronx in the early 60s that features gangs, and the Wanderers were a gang of Italian-American youths. There's this one gang called the Ducky Boys who are from one of the worst parts of the Bronx, and what makes them so freaky is that they don't speak. It's especially freaky when one of the Wanderers ends up in the area and is cornered by them everywhere he goes when he tries to escape.

Ghost: When the two main antagonists get dragged down into the underworld after they get themselves killed.

The Princess and the Frog: It's the main antagonist's "death" scene.

[Amaranthus]

I don't watch horror movies at all.

[Blossombrooks]

Ooh Stephen King's The Mist creeps me the hell out, I still hate driving in the fog!! 28 Days Later is pretty bad too, I was a wreck after watching that.
I know its not a film but I do watch The Walking Dead and that scares me witless, the whole apocalyptic/zombie is terrifying. Still keep watching though so I guess some strange part of me enjoys it?!

[LeotheLateBloomer]

I don't really watch too many horror movies since that's not my genre but the original The Fly movie scarred me when I watched it as a teenager. The ones that upset my stomach the most though are body horror movies not because they're scary but because they're gross to look at.

Which leads me to ask, are the Human Centipede trilogy of movies or Tusk by Kevin Smith scary?

[Lethal Lullaby]

Ringu and Grudge spooked me the most, couldn't sleep without lights on for a while.

Pet Semetary also, when I was younger.

Yep. Those movies did it for me too. Never seen Pet Semetary.

I enjoyed the Final Destination and Saw films.

Exorcist didn't scare me much, but it was creepy. The Shining was good too.

Lol Imma check out that Serbian Film though.

[PangolinFeets]

Ugh, I have no interest in A Serbian Film. It does nothing that Salo didn't already do 40 years ago.

Martyrs is my favorite horror movie. It does everything so perfectly. And to see a successful modern horror with almost no CG is so refreshing.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

I'm a little odd when it comes to something like this. Most people may not ever pick these 3 movies, but anyway..

1. Anaconda. reason snake phobia

2. Twister. reason, just because a twister is a real thing and they happen around here during certain times and I never want to be caught in one. Actually love the movie though.

3. The Omen. reason, just f*ck that movie.


Sadly, the impossibility of Anaconda ruined any scariness that movie might have held for me. Reason- the snake moving that fast at that size is a physical impossibility. It had too much body mass to move as fast as it did. throughout the movie. I was fine with some of the "creep/scare" shots, but the first time that snake started zipping around like lightning after someone, it killed my suspension of disbelief completely. Couldn't take the movie seriously after that. Anacondas are one of the SLOWEST snakes, because of their huge size!

Twister doesn't scare me, exactly. but living in Texas, it's something we have to worry about fairly often, so that one makes me nervous.

I refused to watch any of the FD movies after the first three. Reason- EVERY TIME I saw one of them, I had an accident of some kind. Nothing life-threatening, but enough to cause injury and/or bleeding. So I decided those movies were bad luck for me, and I have not watched any of them ever since. Still won't. If one comes on, I avoid the channel, leave the room, or find some other way NOT to watch it. To this day, I've only seen the first three, and those were all in theaters.

Storm Eagle, I think the movie you're referring to is The Warriors, not The Wanderers. I've seen it. It has one of the most-referenced lines in movies, too: "Warriors! Come out and plaa-ay!" Even the Nick turtles parodied that line.

[Icebot]

^Scream was just stupid teenagers on drugs. What's to be scared of them? :lol

I didn't watch the whole movie so I didn't know that until I saw this.

Watching someone get killed was new to me, so it was very scary.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Scream wasn't even teenagers, nearly all the major characters were older and in college or beyond. I think he's actually thinking of the Scary Movie spoof franchise. Those were the only movies where teens and/or drugs were present.

[Storm Eagle]

I definitely know about The Warriors, but The Wanderers is something totally different. You should read about the movie here, and you'll also see that it's based on a novel by Richard Price that was published in 1974.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wanderers_%281979_film%29

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Never heard of that one, but the plot you mentioned is the exact same story. Either somebody ripped of the idea of one or the other, or they're both based on the same book.

Edit: Hmm, checked the wiki of both, noth based on the same book, but very similar novels, apparently, and during the same time-frame. Not surprising at any rate. On an interesting side-note, the plot of The Warriors is nothing like the book it's derived from, but DOES bear a striking resemblance tot he other one. Hmm....

[Wildcat]

That sure as hell wasn't why I did it.What celebrate Halloween? The free candy then huh? :D

Saw The Mist was mentioned. That was a great movie except for the last 2 minutes or so when they decide to kill themselves and army conveniently saves the day. Which was not in the book after looking it up but I've never read it.

That part is easily forgotten or edited out if you really wanted to. Just cut off after they see the giant monster walk by...Which is a cool but creepy moment.

If it wasn't for the stupid ending that could have made a great sequel. Could redo it I suppose but still.

[Zak The Neutrino]

I forgot one. IT. That movie always freaked me out and I've never liked clowns.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Ooh, good one! I have a neighbor who is terrified of clowns (along with just about everything else, apparently- she's like a real-life Monk...) and that movie scares the crap out of her. I love it. We've contemplated having my hubby dress up as Pennywise, stand outside her door and knock, then deliver one of his lines (he's great at impressions) when she answers it. Kinda twisted I know, but she's a nosey and annoying pest who blabs our business all over town, and is constantly coming down uninvited.

[PangolinFeets]

Another really fantastic thriller I'd put in horror is The Mothman Prophecies. Its rated PG-13 and there's no gore, but that movie captured a sense of fear and confusion so well. Its like a really really good episode of The X-Files. And its totally based on true accounts. It gives me goosebumps. Super freaky.

[AT-Man]

Which leads me to ask, are the Human Centipede trilogy of movies or Tusk by Kevin Smith scary?

I don't think they're scary, but rather nerve-racking.

[Leo656]

Lol Imma check out that Serbian Film though.

Aw, c'mon. Don't do that. I mean seriously...
A newborn infant gets raped immediately after being born...
C'mon. Think of your soul. Just don't.

My wife gets annoyed with me because I'll often read about and "spoil" movies for myself before seeing them, and I'll forever point to that movie as a perfect reason why I do that. I'd heard of it a bunch and probably would have seen it, and then I decided to read about it and it was like, "Okay, yeah, I get what they're trying to do, but NO."

I mean, yeah, do whatever you want. I'd advise against it, though.

Just- ew. Yeah, not something I'd ever want to see on purpose, or even by mistake while channel surfing....

[Storm Eagle]

I'm not touching The Human Centipede series with a 100-foot pole. I got an idea of what that was like from watching an episode of South Park.

[PangolinFeets]

Just- ew. Yeah, not something I'd ever want to see on purpose, or even by mistake while channel surfing....

I can assure you that no network would ever show that. It's banned almost everywhere.

Pure shock value is boring, gross and does nothing inventive for this ever-ailing genre. The ****ing Marquis De Sade was writing this kinda depravity on the walls of his prison cells in the 1700s. Fresh substance, please.

More than anything, I love thought-provoking, well-paced, innovative horror. Stuff like Pontypool, even though zombie is a grossly over-saturated subgenre, had a really interesting take on the spread of the disease. It's just so rare to find those kinds of movies anymore. It's much easier to throw buckets of blood and severed tits at the screen in 3D. I enjoy the occasional over-the-top dumb horror comedy for kicks, but even that's getting old (And 90% of them are just awful).

Honestly, people hype Human Centipede up so much in their heads. The implications are much worse than anything you see on screen. If anything, the overacting makes it pretty funny.

I only watched the first one and I didn't like it because the main characters were dumb, but damn, that's a pretty legit reason to not like them.

The Human Centipede isn't really that bad. Like our friendliest Pangolin here said, the overacting can be pretty amusing [though your mileage may vary on whether or not that makes the film more tolerable since I understand people getting weirded out by finding something they're supposed to find disgusting funny].

That movie didn't scare me at all, but it kinda fascinated me in a gross kinda way, since I kinda like ****ed up body horror and experiments and ****. I wouldn't be in any hurry to watch it again or anything though.

I'm still not taking any chances.

As for you Netkeeper, I may be able to sit through certain horror movies. I once marathoned the entire original Nightmare on Elm Street series and the entire original Friday the 13th series, and I've seen all the Child's Play movies. I also own the Scream movies and a copy of The Craft. However, there is such a thing as a level of tolerance. The kinds of things that you like are likely to be different from what others like.

Besides, didn't THC have a part where one person defecated in the mouth of the person attached to their rear end?

[senpai]

The Descent. Love that movie. The Last Exorcism kinda freaked me out too (mainly the ending). Tusk *grumble grumble* -_- And screw those Saw movies.

[LeotheLateBloomer]

Tusk *grumble grumble* -_-

Mind sharing?

[Cure]

The most recent movie to scare me is Conjuring. Ghosts and ish get to me.

I'll tell you what isn't scary though, and that's Green Inferno. I just wanna take this opportunity to mention how garbage that movie is.

[Leo656]

The first Saw was pretty good, to me. I liked it because it was more psychological. 99% of the gore was actually in your head (watch it again if you don't believe me), and what was creepy about it was the idea that someone could very easily actually DO something like this, were they properly motivated. It was inspired and creative.

Then it immediately became an excuse to just dial the splatter up to 11 every October, which, to me, isn't scary. It really doesn't take a lot of skill to just show an excessive amount of blood n' guts onscreen and then get all excited when some people get uncomfortable looking at it. That's cheap, to me. I mean, yeah, there's a place for it, but plot, atmosphere, etc. are much more important to making a movie scary, in my opinion.

[ssjup81]

I'm not big on horror movies, as they bore me after a while. Even them, as a kid, things people deemed "scary" didn't scare me. Put on something stemmed in reality, and that would give me nightmares. In other words, evil people and those who showed hatred. I know seeing stuff about the Civil Rights Movement and slavery and persecution of blacks would scare me and give me nightmares since some of things occurred in recent history...and made me paranoid. I used to think, since I went to a predominantly white Elementary school, "What if we can't be friends? What if his/her parents hate me? What if white people become mean again and treat us badly?" So, yeah...reality. But if I had to choose, maybe the house scene in Wizard of Oz. The part where her feet rolled under the house used to creep me out. lolThe first Saw was pretty good, to me. I liked it because it was more psychological. 99% of the gore was actually in your head (watch it again if you don't believe me), and what was creepy about it was the idea that someone could very easily actually DO something like this, were they properly motivated.

[Toitlefan]

The first Human Centipede movie was tame according to horror standards but the 2nd one was just flat out disturbing. I can't even count how many times I cringed and almost shut it off. I can't un-see that movie and I wish I could.

[Shark_Blade]

Ooh Stephen King's The Mist creeps me the hell out, I still hate driving in the fog!! 28 Days Later is pretty bad too, I was a wreck after watching that.
I know its not a film but I do watch The Walking Dead and that scares me witless, the whole apocalyptic/zombie is terrifying. Still keep watching though so I guess some strange part of me enjoys it?!
Another great film I almost forgot! Yes, The Mist. It was such a great buildup but the ending really sadden me.... don't do suicide guys, it's dumb.:cry:

I'm gonna need to find that movie again. Cheers Blossom!:D

[senpai]

Mind sharing?

Lol. Do you like Justin Long? Are you a fan of walruses? (Walrusi? :-?) Because it's a movie about Justin Long getting turned into a walrus. And that's no spoiler. I don't recommend it but if you're a fan of awful horror flicks you may be interested in giving it a chance. Warning: it's torture terror. That's the main reason why I couldn't get into the hilarity of the movie--I couldn't get past the torture aspect that I'm sensitive to.

[LeotheLateBloomer]

I only know Justin Long for Alvin and Die Hard. But I meant what bothered you about it. I just heard it was more so disturbing than it is scary. And I saw Ramboraph4Life's review of it.

[senpai]

Aw, really? I heard it was hilarious.

The torture is what I didn't like. Even though it's totally dumb--Justin Long is turned into a walrus, like hello lol--but I just couldn't get past the way Long's character was tortured and made miserable during the whole film. I mean, he was an asshole but he didn't deserve to be turned into a walrus! I will say though that I wish I had the guts to stick through it so I could see the grand fight at the end. :lol: The ending was later explained to me.

[LeotheLateBloomer]

I think I read that his legs were amputated to use the tibia bones to form the tusks and he got his tongue cut off for some reason. I did see a scene where he was screaming with drool and Michael Park's character sent him into a pool of water.

[PangolinFeets]

Tusk was hilarious. The torture is pretty gross, but it was presented in such a ridiculous way that it was silly. Plus Justin Long's character is kind of a scum bag. Not to say scum bags deserve to have their legs and arms sewn to their torso, but that's how the dice roll in horror.

If you live in the tri-state area, stop by Kevin Smith's comic store J&SB Secret Stash in Red Bank NJ. They have a foam replica of the walrus. XD

[LeotheLateBloomer]

Isn't that the same store where they film Comic Book Men at?

[senpai]

I did see a scene where he was screaming with drool and Michael Park's character sent him into a pool of water.

:lol: Yeah. That's literally the part when I turned the movie off.

I know... But I simply couldn't get through it. I think if I had been watching it with friends and not by myself at night with the lights off, I'm sure it would've had a more light-hearted effect on me. (I'm a pansy.)

I don't but oh man that sounds like good times lol!

[TLP]

Ok ok.

The most disturbing scene in film history:

wmMDu1pp6o0



(No not really. I just wanted to introduce you all to this "incredible" movie. ^^Look up "Schizophreniac: The Wh*re Mangler.")

[PangolinFeets]

Isn't that the same store where they film Comic Book Men at?

Yea, it got a lot nicer once they started filming. Those guys still run the store for the most part.

[senpai]

Here's another one that freaked me out: The Nightmare. It's on Netflix. It's a documentary about sleep paralysis. I really didn't know much about the topic going into the film but I have experienced sleep paralysis a few times in my life. So many people experience a figure known as a "shadow-man" in their dreams, and this made me have such a bad feeling in my stomach because I've seen it too. :s Hopefully I'll never see it again either.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Okay, confession time- I've experienced that a time or two myself. What's more freaky is that I've not only seen the so-calked shadow-man but I've "FELT" its hands on my neck choking me, too. And even weirder is that my husband saw it too, while I was being "attacked". It's not something I ever want to experience again, because I thought I was dreaming until he said he saw it. But there was a definite malicious presence in the room.

[XERO]

Candyman.

Those bees, man. Those f*cking bees in his chest.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

That's scary? Meh. Bugs don't bother me. Although the cockroaches from Joe's Apartment kind of gross me out. But that's because- cockroaches. Hate those little nasty things. And I'm not overly fond of crickets, either. But bugs in horror films don't bother me much. That scene in The Craft where Nancy is covered with bugs and snakes? Pfft- wasn't scary or creepy at all to me, even when they were crawling out of her mouth!

[senpai]

But there was a definite malicious presence in the room.

See, I don't like that. I'd flip out and question my sanity but since your husband saw it too that's really freaky. Not to stray too far from the thread's topic but did you do anything or did it just go away? In my night terror, the figure was straddling me (I sensed he had a weapon--a knife--behind his back) and I couldn't move; I felt severe pressure on my chest--I couldn't breathe and I swear my heart had stopped beating. At least, that's what my mind was processing. I woke up in the same position I was in during the night terror--almost as if no time had passed, I blink, and I'm suddenly alone in the room. Though the figure was gone I was still in a state of paralysis for a minute or so. It felt so real. >_< Duckie, I hope that never happens to you again. I didn't know this figure was reoccurring nor was I aware it was in other people's nightmares too.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Well, we've had some other odd things happen here, and it's not the first paranormal experience for EITHER of us, so it's really not that "freaky" all-in-all. (If you're interested, PM me, and I'll tell you about a few others I've had.)

What really creeped me wasn't just that he saw it, but that I was awake for most of it. I started out half-asleep, then when I felt something trying to grab and choke me, I woke up fully and still couldn't get it off, thrashed a bit and tried to reach out which woke him up, and he saw something in the room with us. He yelled at it, and it finally dissipated or whatever. I had a hard time sleeping for the rest of the night. He said he saw a man in a suit. And he's seen him before- the "shadow-man" threw a phone book at him one day.

We've also had little shadows that hover near my desk and cause toys to fall off the cabinet the printer sits on, or off the top of the PC tower. I also know for a fact that the tenant of this apartment two tenants previous to us (not the one right before us, but before him) was an old guy who was moved to a care home- and then died less than a week later. We think HE may be hanging around, too.

Thanks, but I'll pass for now. I want to be able to sleep tonight lol! For real, I freaked myself out last night I barely slept and now I have a full day's work. Plus, I'm home alone for the next week. I's skeered. :ohwell:

[MsMarvelDuckie]

LOL, don't worry, they weren't scary or creepy, mostly just funny encounters with a ghost who had a weird sense of humor.

Nothing really scares me now, but the one movie that really creeped me the f*ck out was Stephen King's IT. The main reason was because I was a kid when I saw it for the first time, and Tim Curry was amazing in the role.

>_> I thought It was kinda corny/funny... xD That scene where the main guy's watching balloons popping in everyone's faces while they were reading books in the library... idk, like I laughed. But yeah, Tim Curry can play anything and make his role pretty amazing. Love SK too. <3

Oh gosh I just thought of a legitimate one.

[The Deadman]

The Exorcism of Emily Rose freaked me the **** out just by seeing the trailer halfasleep for the first time. Then i watched the movie and got even more creeped out. Im a big horror movie fan and nothing really scares me but that one got to me.
