The first Nitemare movie was the best and the bloodiest after that they got stupid with special effects. I raised my kids on Nitemare movies so they would never be afraid of the dark or the closet monster and they never were. Infact Freddy is one of my Oldest Daughters Favorite actors.
Hmmm I have so many it is really hard to choose. I would have to say the movie The Seventh Sign with Demi Moore.
There is also a movie on the "Vaticans List" called the seventh seal it was made in 1957 I do believe. (made waaaaaaay before I was born lol)

My bro Darryl was IN that movie... as an extra during his 'hollywood years' !
I gotta say D. and I have similar tastes:
The Haunting (1963) ...scared the bejesus outta me as a kid... and still does!
The Exorcist ... has everything - great filmmaking, creepy ambiguity, and Ellen Burstyn!
Deep Red 'Profondo Rosso' ...Dario Argento just has a style of his own!
The Changeling ....George C. Scott one, not the upcoming Angelina Jolie one
The Shining
Rosemary's Baby
Also, not sure if it fits 'horror' category, but a few suspense/thrillers that do it for me are:
Shadow of a Doubt (1943 - Hitchcock) &
Silence of the Lambs ...'it puts the lotion on it's skin, or else it gets the hose again!'
Top 10:
1) Profondo Rosso (Deep Red) (Italtian)
2) The Haunting (original)
3) The Changeling
4) The House Next to the Cemetary (Italian)
5) The Shining (either version)
6) The Devil's Backbone (Spanish)
7) Suspiria (Italian)
8 ) Session Eight
9) The Orphanage (Spanish)
10) Livescifi.tv Investigations Special DVD set (first season)
No way! I want the last one on the list! Are you hinting that it will come out soon, in the near future? *Hopes, wishes, begs*
BTW, back on topic... I never get scared of any scary movie, but I do get grossed out a lot. I usually don't like scary movies though :/
Three movies that grossed me out a lot!
Hostel, Saw(all of them), Chainsaw Massacre (1974 and 2006)
Also, Asian horror flick, specifically Japanese flicks, give very creepy atmospheres that makes it very enjoyable. They almost always have unhappy endings too! 🙂
The Ring/Ringu (Japanese)
The Grudge/Ju-on (Japanese)
One Missed Call/Chakushin Ari (Japanese)
Three Extremes (Hong Kong/Korean/Japanese)
However my favorite scary movie that is not very scary is....
The Shining (1980), only because it brings me nostalgia every time I see it. Besides it is based of the Stephen King book, which I love so much. Memorable scenes from the movie like the Hedge Maze, the young twins in the hallway, the father poking his head into the door to say his famous lines, the crazy scribbling of the infamous phrase on paper... Everything in that movie is a classic in my book, and a favorite classic scary movie to me.
Other than that, I find Child's Play, enjoyably funny 😉
The day after, haunts me still total nuclear anilliation. It was too real.
Speaking of Movies..Who's up to seeing Mirrors? Looks to be a good one and my kinda flick. How rocking does that house look that Keifer is in? With Keifer in it , should be good, He's such a hottie altho was so much hotter in Lost Boys 😉

Me and my crazy idea's again...wonder if anyone has filmed a mirror and caught some crazy things in one? Other then matrixing.

My husband like it a lot, but I'm not one to like so much gore..spooky..not gore!

The church and graveyard that the opening scene of the 1st movie is In Fla. Some kids , lemme say duh kids , burnt the place down thinking something really was hanging out there.
Just watched An American Haunting - OMG!!!

That was blown way out there, if I remember correctly of the bell witch legend has nothing to do with child molestation. I was watching it saying OMG this is just all wrong.
Sorta like when I saw Blair witch. Coming from the north I know Trees will make snapping noises when its cold and Raccoons will sound like everything including kids. I'm sure ppl hate when I go to movies, I debunk everything.
