What no “Exorcist”?! An outrage!
I agree with you Jarik. Also, the very first Night of the Living Dead in B&W was really frightening, especially if you and your date saw it when it first came out at the drive-in 40 years ago. Scary as hell.
What about the original Nightmare on Elm Street. I remember seeing that one in the theater: scared the crap out of me!
What? No Battlefeild Earth?
The only thing scary about Battlefield Earth is that someone liked it enough to get it made
Can someone please tell me why Scary Movie did not make the cut. At least put is Scream over Event Horizon.
Can someone tell me what was so scarry about the ring. I had trouble staying awake watching that one.
