This wasn't the scariest movie i've seen but in "The Mothman Prophesies", there is a scene where the actress, Jane Leeves I think, is in a hospital bed after an entity of some sort (Mothman) had caused a car accident.

The look in her eyes as she was staring up was just chilling, sent a shiver down my spine. It was like you really believed she was seeing something and was completely terrified.

Can't forget the ending dream sequence in "Carrie," either.

I agree about Poltergeist. I saw it in a theater and it was a REALLY LOUD. Some of these scenes involving the demons in the closet, and the trees trying to grab them, I was watching through parted fingers.

But I also like when a nonhorror movie makes you jump. I vividly remember the night I first saw The Godfather -- it was a crowded theater in New York. When Michael goes to the hospital to visit his father and finds it deserted, that scene is beautifully set up. When the nurse barges into the frame saying "What are you doing here?", the whole damned theater jumped up in shock.

When the head pops out of the boat in Jaws...
I read that it was filmed in somebody's pool...

That's a true story. The original way it was shot, the camera goes into the hole in the boat, wanders around and finally the head appears. During the cutting, Spielberg got a better idea, but the studio wouldn't pay for any additional shooting. (Some guys at Universal thought the film was just going to be a costly turkey.) So they did a reshoot in, I think, the swimming pool belonging to the editor, Verna Fields. To make the water murky, Spielberg was putting in metal shavings and Hershey powdered chocolate and other stuff. So they got to suddenly appear, and that delivered the pow moment.

Yes. That wasn't fair at all. That ending was one of the great shockers, but the emotional underpinnings of the story were so moving that when you got to that suckerpunch finale, you were just ravaged.

Important Trivia Note: the famous sex scene was actually shot hard core. Everything you heard is true.

The Exorcist scared the holy crap out of me. I was 16 and I sat in the 2nd row of the Westwood theater in LA (big ass screen). I was so scared I scared the crap out of other people just telling them about it! A girl came up to me at my 10 year High School Reunion and told me she'd never seen the movie because of how scared I was at school the next day! I still won't watch it again.

"Signs", the kids b-day video.

First time I saw this movie that part made me jump... just so much anticipation.

I don't watch a lot of horror movies, so I tend to get freaked out by non-horror movies. Of note for me is the beginning scene in Mullholland Drive where they go out back of the diner and there is this weird trash monster/human that pops out of nowhere. So unexpected and David Lynch films are weird enough as is... Not to mention that Bob from Twin Peaks is a scary dude.

10-30-2009, 08:53 AM

To add another: Session 9

There are a lot of weird/scary scenes but the one with the guy who's afraid of the dark running running in the basement of that eery building and the lights are turning off....you could just feel the pain he was going through...also, the ending is chilling.

Yes, I heard that. I read a very funny interview with Keifer Sutherland where he said when all his college buddies were running off to the art house cinema to see "Don't Look Now", he couldn't do it because those were his parents.

I saw that at the drive-in when I was about 6. My parents had assumed that the kids would fall asleep by the second film, but there we were, standing on the front seat, while my mom was asleep in the back of the station wagon.

My dad had seen the movie before, so he kind of warned us about 'something you don't want to see is coming up'. But he forgot exactly where, so my sister and i were even more on edge. Every time those air barrels popped up, we would go through the roof. But yeah, that head still got me. *shudder*

I remember seeing the first Alien movie when it first came out in theatres. They did a great job of keeping the movie secret; all you knew of it was the picture of the pod (didn't know what it was then), and "In space no one can hear you scream". So we went in to see it completely cold. What an experience!! I came very close to actually puking when the creature burst out of the guy's chest. Wow.

The other scariest moment (seriously) was hearing Pierce Brosnan singing Abba songs in Mamma Mia. Scarred me for life.

The eye peering out from the closet in Black Christmas. It's the only time you get a glimpse of the killer. By the way, for all you horror movie fans Black Christmas is a total hidden gem. The first Halloween stole a lot from it.

28 Days Later has a few scary scenes too.

Already mentioned in the thread, but these scared the shit right outta me:

Exorcist:
Almost the whole movie, but specifically, this imagery ruined me:

The Shining
Something about the furry felatio scared the crap out of me too. Such bizarre imagery.

The Ring
When the girl comes out of the TV. Jacked me up for days.

Signs
I have an irrational fear of aliens for some reason, probably because I saw Fire in the Sky when I was little. The fact that some thought it was a true story for 20 years didn't help. When you are a little kid, of course it's true.

But anyway, the kids' birthday scene got me pretty good, but the two main ones were right at the end. When Mel Gibson and Joquin Phoenix are boarding up the windows and doors - there's a shot of Mel, and whatever he is seeing outside the window has him transfixed, slowly backing away. You never see what he is seeing, and I can only imagine what it was. Great little piece of moviemaking there, to not show it.

And, when you can hear the German Shepherd barking and growling savagely outside, and then you hear him cry out, then silence.

That movie also jacked me up for days.

Are we talking startling moments (Ben Gardner's boat) or psychologically scary stuff?

An example of the latter: in The Haunting, when the two women are in the room and they hear the walls pounding around them, then the door knob turns. And at one point when Julie Harris thinks she's holding Claire Bloom's hand, then realizes she's not. It doesn't sound that scary but it's really well done.

There's a couple more silly ones that have stuck with me since childhood - staying up late watching Saturday night monster movies while my parents were out. Both were cheap Mexican movies. One was called "Curse of the Doll People." and featured little people with shrunken head looking faces going around killing people. I don't remember the name of the other but it had a severed hand that crawled around doing evil things. There was a scene in which a guy was driving somewhere, unaware that the hand was crawling up the back of his seat. For years after that, all I had to do was think about it and I'd get goosebumps, especially when driving alone at night.

Also - not a movie but creepy - a scene from a Twilight Zone where a guy looks in the mirror to see a ventriloquist dummy turning to look at him, then turning away when he realizes he's been seen.

I hadn't been scared at the movies for years before I saw the Sixth Sense. All sorts of scary moments in that, the scariest one for me being when the Haley Joel Osment's character is using the bathroom with his back to the screen and the ghost walks behind him. I still get the willies thinking about it! That movie was pure genius on all sorts of levels. Too bad it was pretty much downhill for MNS after that...

The Ring also had some nice bits although it was more creepy than downright scary.

At least that kid ... as in the actor himself, looks like he's enjoying playing that role ...

I haven't seen the movie ... so maybe the creepiness is in the context of the movie.

So are there any movies out there that stay scary .. even after you've seen it a dozen times?

'The Eye' has some of my favorite scenes.

The 1961 film "The Innocents" with Deborah Kerr has some very effective "ghost story" qualities that are spooky and unnerving. It's in B&W, which helps. There's a shot of a ghost figure, in a long woolen floor length dress, walking past a hallway; only she doesn't seem to be walking, she seems to be gliding, the way a ghost might. I also got the creeps from much of Nicole Kidman's film "The Others", particularly when she finds the second batch of "corpse" pictures. Brrrrrrrrrr!
