Scariest movie you've ever seen!

I personally LOVE scary movies, even though I'm an enormous wuss. I was just wondering what people found were the scariest movies that they'd ever seen. Obviously, people have different ideas of what is scary and what isn't, but I'd be interested in seeing what movies people found frightening. (Also, I'm shameless and want to know of some good scary movies that I can watch).

A few of the scariest movies I've ever seen are The Shining, The Eye (Gin gwai), and The Ring.

The Eye (Gin gwai): Holy crap. This one REALLY scared me. There is one scene in an elevator........I still have issues going on elevators alone. I think Hollywood is remaking it (as they seem to do with EVERY good foreign movie), and I'm sure it'll be terrible, but this movie was genuinely scary to me. *Shudder*

The Shining: I saw this as a little kid, and I wasn't that scared. Then I saw it when I was older and had trouble sleeping. Jack Nicholson is amazing. And those little twins are SO CREEPY!

The Ring: Yes, I saw the Hollywood remake. It freaked the hell out of me. I was scared to go near my television. I heard that the original is scarier, so I'm sort of intimidated to watch it.

I don't think there's a movie that really scares me...maybe freaked me out a little, but I don't get scared easily. Dawn of the Dead was one of those movies that made my heart race, as well as Texas Chainsaw Massacre. (1974) I guess they're just very disturbing. I realize that most of the scariest movies were made years ago...and I believe that's what makes them "scary" - we see unfamiliar faces, and not Hollywood stars.

Dawn of the dead and the ring both versions scare me (the ring that is)
oh yes I am a complete pussy, but does that stop me?

PS: can't wait for saw 4, it is meant to be coming out soon

I don't enjoy horror movies. I watch movies to be entertained--not frightened. There's nothing enjoyable about being scared, in my opinion.

But anyway...

I found Saw III pretty scary...especially since I've got a low threshold for the sight of blood.

I dont get scared by scary movies very often, i do enjoy them though....umm i watched The Blair Witch Project when i was like 10, believing it was real xD that shook me up a bit......in the Decent, the bit where you see one of the monsters come up on the camera....that made me fully jump...oh yeah, the old Texas Chainsaw Massacre had a brilliant atmosphere, when that girl entered the house...with all those animal skulls stuck to the door, and animal bones....

I'm picky about scary movies. I'm a wuss about them though. I can't stand horror movies such as Saw where people die in disgusting ways. I prefer to watch scary movies that are based on true stories. As lame as hollywood makes it worse than it seems, it's still scary to know some of those events actually happened.

I never saw the The Poltergeist the but events that happened while making the movie seems scary as hell. x_x http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poltergeist_curse

I guess one of the scariest movies I've ever seen was The shining and the orginal Omen.

I remember being scared shitless of the exorcist when I was younger. Movies now arent as scary.

Oh and when watching the decent recently, I remember getting alot of frights.
