Since it's Halloween, what's the best scary movie? I saw The Exorcist in the theatre when I was 12, couldn't sleep for months.

    I watched Jaws when I was 10 years old. 30 years later and I still get nervous swimming in "dark" water. I prefer backyard pools.

    I was going to say the Exorsist. But I believe the **** above is even scarier than little Regan. I would much rather deal with a demon than a democrat. A demon just wants your soul. A democrat wants your soul, your money and your freedom.

    Poltergeist.
    I have to admit, though, that I like scary movies, but not gory or violent ones (I walked out of Scarface after the shower/chainsaw scene).  There was a remake of the original Frankenstein movie that scared the hell out of me, but I don't know the name of it.

    I agree, I'm not into the blood and guts.  Did like Scream though!

    As far as watching for enjoyment, I have always been a huge fan of the Friday the 13th movies. Brother Voorhees really does a great all around job. As far as what movie is the scariest, the Exorcist is the clear winner. I don't scare easy at all, but that made my skin crawl.

    When I was a kid the Wizard of Oz scared the hell out of me. I still get the creeps with those flying monkeys.

    Jack Nicholson ::  The Shining

    Easily one of the most frightening movies ever made.    Stanley Kubrick was one HECK of a film maker.

    As a child, my brothers and I would line up on the couch with a blanket and cover our eyes at the scary scenes in the old Dracula and Werewolf movies with Lon Chaney and Boris Karloff. As an adult,The Shining gets my vote.

    Oh, good call!  But it wasn't the monkeys that scared me, it was the tornado.  Spent quite a few episodes in the basement shower stall with my family during tornados, and when you're six and you see your parents frightened, that leaves a mark.

    @jabam It's worth checking out. It's a pretty twisted movie and based on a true story

    I always enjoyed The Exorcist and Ghost Story, but it's Exorcist III with George C. Scott that always gets to me (especially the nun with the shears).
