Originally Posted By Autopia Deb Interesting that Wizard of Oz scored higher than Jurasic Park. As for Willy Wonka being on the list... I saw it at the drive-in as a kid (first run, yes I'm THAT old) and the blue berry scene scared the snot outta me, lol.

Originally Posted By Autopia Deb Well, the girl I saw in the mirror looked similar to the one turned into a giant blue berry, so that scene had a little more impact for me, lol.
Originally Posted By Kar2oonMan Silence of the Lambs is always toward the top of these scary movie lists. I'm convinced that I must have missed something in that movie. It was good, but I've never understood how gah-gah people are about it. As movies about Hannibal Lechter go, I thought 'Manhunter' with William Petersen was the better of the two.

Originally Posted By DAR <<Dawn of the Dead (2004)>> This maybe blasphemous but I prefer this one to the original. It's every bit an action film as it is a horror one.
Originally Posted By DAR <<Seven>> True story after seeing this film with my friends, everytime we saw a box we would all scream "Oh God what's in the box." I should add that there wasn't a girlfriend in the bunch.

Originally Posted By BlazesOfFire Oh so forgive me for sounding dumb but... The original Stepford Wives is scary? or justa lil freakish with everyone lookin the same etc etc??
Originally Posted By TDLFAN Their credibility went out the window by choosing "Jaws" as the #1 scariest...
Originally Posted By DAR <<The Exorcist>> I mentioned in the movie thread that I just saw this movie. And I can't believe that people thought this was scary. It was laughable.
Originally Posted By DAR Looking at both of the lists here are the movies that scared me or at least had me peaking through my fingers at some scenes. Jaws Alien The Texas Chainsaw Massacre The Shining The Silence of the Lambs Carrie Misery Halloween A Nightmare on Elm Street Phantasm Seven Aliens Dawn of the Dead The Thing (1982) Deliverance Marathon Man The Sixth Sense Candyman Poltergeist Jurassic Park Saw Dawn of the Dead (2004)
