Rosemary's baby, every silence, every voice in the distance, every door opening. Your heart is always in your throat. There is something there that accelerates a constant state of dread. It's just a great movie, check it out if you haven't.

Happy gilmore, the waterboy and Billy Madison are in a tie with me.  Yeah the Bob Barker part was hilarious!!! Also, on the waterboy when the professor who looks like Colonel Sanders gets hit with the baseball and when everybody pees their pants on Billy Madison.  Thanks for both of those best answers.  That was pretty cool of you!! : )

"The Excorcist", the original one, is the scariest movie I've ever seen. It has some disturbing imagery though, so be prepared for nightmares.

The Shining (Jack Nicholson/Shelley Duval);\nSalem's Lot;\nPet Semetary\nThe Exorcist;\nThe Amityville Horror (the original)\n\nBasically, any movie where some haunt comes out from under the bed or out of the closet scares the bejesus out of me.

the original Halloween.  It was the first.  Watch it now, and it seems so totally predictable.  That's because every film in it's sub-genre has picked it's bones completely clean ovr the past 30 years.

My favorite Horror movie has got to be "Salem's Lot"  (the original one). This one is my favorite because it was the first "Scary" movie that my sister and I ever watched.  To this day whenever me and my sister watch this movie (we are now in our 30's and live on different sides of the world) we both call each other so we can watch it at the same time.  We call each other periodically throughout the movie and when we go to bed there seems to be a tree or it seem to be very windy and things hit up against our windows and scares the crap out of us, so we end up calling each other in the middle of the night laughing.  So I guess I like the particular movie because it keeps me and my sister in touch, and the fact that my kids think that the film is ancient and out of date and boring, they stay up to watch it with me.  Gotta love Stephen King.

There's a lot of great horror movies. What surprises me is that GR1M can say that House of 1,000 Corpses is a lame attempt at a real horror movie and then say that the best horror movie is Jeepers Creepers. I LOVE Rob Zombie so maybe that's why I like his movies so much, but there are an insane amount of horror movies way better than Jeepers Creepers. What about all the classics? The Exorcist, Halloween, Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th, The Shining....I admit some of these movies got chessy as they proceeded along (Jason takes Manhattan) but these are classics and any one of these whips Jeepers Creepers ass.
