    When I was younger it would've probably been the Exorcist....Nosferatu I saw in college and have a copy of...now it's hard to single out one....Seven is up there as was the original Alien...especially because nobody had seen one until they watched that movie....8MM was creepy as fuck....I can't watch the Saw or other slasher movies at all but vampires, werewolves, frankenstein etc I can enjoy. Bram Stokers Dracula was pretty good as was the Kevin Branaugh Robert DeNiro Frankenstein All the Silence of the Lamb series were scary..the books even more so..

    The Grudge was the scariest even though I think believing in ghosts is ridiculous but the scariest that I've seen that had any possibility of coming true was Alien and even that is pretty much impossible. Along those lines War of the World with Tom Cruise was pretty well done.

    Exorcist in my youth. When i was in like first grade? a babysitter and i watched it. Didnt sleep for weeks and that neck twisting still haunts me to this day. Lol.

    in modern movies really. I thought Mama was pretty good.
    Wife loves scary movies. She says 90% are lame wannabes with no real thrills.

    She is a fan of The Hills Have Eyes. That ones messed up, but i found it to be more gore than scare. But with a couple of peak intense moments.

    ive long wanted to put vox over that music from that movie. Maybe i will this summer.
    Great movie too, but i tossed it in the zombie category. Not scary category. Though, it was scary.

    Hey, I'm a pretty skeptical guy.

    I saw a ghost or something once though and that shit was real. I've told the story before, but maybe you didn't see it. I was at a friend's staying the night when I was a teen. I was sleeping on the couch. I woke facing the back of the couch from a sound sleep. I wasn't having a nightmare or anything like that.

    So, I woke up staring at the back of the couch, my spine ablaze. I mean I was frozen. I'm not scared if the dark. I don't get scared like that. But, I felt like something was behind me and it wasn't something nice.

    I turned slowly around and sat up. To the left at about the middle of the room was a doorway that led to a small hallway with a closet and a bathroom at the end. From it, came a dark figure. It was like the form of a human body, but it was made of dark jets of smoke that curled about, always moving.

    The figure moved halfway across the living room in a straight line from the door way and then stopped. For a moment it stood as if staring at the far wall the it turned and looked straight at me on the couch. It had red eyes.

    It stared at me almost surprised to find me there looking back at it. I wondered if it might try to come at me. It didn't. It just stood there looking at me, it's smoky wispy body whirling in the darkness. It's red eyes piercing. It then turned and moved the rest of the way across the room and through the wall, vanishing.

    I turned the lights on and looked down the hallway and went to the far wall where it disappeared and touched it. It was very strange. I had never experienced that before nor since. I was questioned whether it was a waking dream, maybe I wasn't all the way awake, but it wasn't that. I was wide awake before I saw it.

    I don't know if it was a ghost or fucking demon or whatever, but it was real.

    I'm not being a smartass when I ask this, just gathering data, but were you under any chemical influence at the time?

    My wife, her sister and her mom all have seen ghosts their entire lives. They are from Canada and lived right next to the CN Trans-Canada rail line and my wife said there was an endless parade of specters through their basement when they were little, all looking like RR workers in 19th century garb. Their mom just kept telling them it was OK, normal stuff.

    My wife never met my dad, who passed away before we were married. She saw him at night at my parent's house in a doorway and described him perfectly never having met him or even having seen a photo. My wife is a scientist, skeptical, not easily convinced.
    I have no such experience but it suggests that certain people are wired to be on the frequency to see these things.
