Even though I am a big horror film fan, to this day I still cannot bring myself to watch The Exorcist again.  I was in Junior High and went with my Mom. It took weeks for me to get over it.  I don't even like it on in my house. 

My favorite scary film is The Haunting 1963 black and white directed by Robert Wise with Russ Tamblyn, Julie Harris and Clare Bloom. Classic haunted house tale based on Shirley Jacksons novel The Haunting.   Little or no special effects, all done with mood, shadows, music and damn good story telling.  IMHO the best horror flick ever made.  Still gives me little shivers.

Another good one in that same vein is The Uninvited 1944 also black and white with Ray Milland, Ruth Hussy and Donald Crisp.  Scared the pants off me as kid.

Those two and Darkness Falls are what my neices rented for their Halloween slumber party last Saturday. Auntie Dottie strikes again My brother still hasn't forgiven me.  ;D

Yeah, that movie scared the crap out of me too. Especially the scene where Danny Glick (the vampire boy) appeared in Mark's bedroom window, scratching on the glass....

...."Mark! Let me in Mark <scratch> <scratch> Open the window Mark!".

Another movie that scared me was "Pet Cemetery". Pascow scared me to death. That movie was just downright freaky.  :o

Tell ya another movie that scared me to death..."An American Werewolf in London" Especially at the start when they were on the moors. It can get very bleak indeed on the moors in northern England, and the thought of something like that stalking you on one when theres nowhere to run!!! :o :o :o :o
