Silent Hill is pretty good with nice story.
ThanksKilling.
Ruined that holiday for me, now I'm afraid of evil turkeys.
I really liked 1408, even after watching it a 3rd time in about two weeks, which is really rare for me. It ain't particuarly terrifying, but I really like the whole idea, the suspense, etc.

Silent Hill wasn't very scary for me, just disturbing but overall an awesome movie. House on Haunted Hill scared the crap out of me when I was little and The Grudge and The Ring are both pretty freaky.
The Grudge
The Ring
The Mothman Prophecies
Insidious
That movie was soooo boring imo. We just rented it bc the trailer looked great. Then we watched it and I was like wtf is this? The only horror movie that has rattled me a little in recent years is paranormal activity 1&2 I love turning on my surround sound, shutting off all the lights and watching it. Its all about the mood for me.
I found Insidious to be a terrible movie, it had about 2 spooky scenes then the rest of the movie was utter crap. It reminded me of one of those syfy films, you know the ones. GIANT OCTOPUS VS MEGASHARK!
Doesn't there exist a horror movie like the haunted house attractions at the fair? Those could be pretty scary if done well
Dawn of the Dead, Le Horde, 28 days later, 28 weeks later, land of the dead, 4th kind, Fire in the Sky, In the Mouth of Madness, Martyrs, The Fly, Orphanage, Quarantine, Rec, Rec 2, Land of the Dead, Shaun of the Dead, Hatchet 1 and Hatchet 2, Ogre, The People Under the Stairs, Braindead, Monkey Shines, Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street, Chucky, Halloween, The Hills Have Eyes 1 and 2, The Messengers, The Strangers, Last House on the Left, IT, The Langoliers, The Mist, The Walking Dead (Television series), X Files (Movies and TV series), Millenium (TV Series), and there is plenty more just drawing a blank now.
Also it is all about atmosphere. When I first watched Fire in the Sky I was 8 years old alone in my bedroom with a blanket over my head. During one scene I went running out of my room screaming for my Mommy. I watch the movie now and I laugh.

Well I was curious about this thread when I saw it, and since I have watched the trailer for Paranormal Activity and I don't think I will be sleeping tonight, there is something about that type of film that I hate so much, must mean they are quite good.
I would agree with The Decent, but there is just one scary bit in that that almost made me crap myself when i saw it at the cinema.
Not a movie, but anyone who enjoys psychological horror or stuff that generally messes with your head, I'd recommend checking out the series " Marble Hornets " from youtube, has 46 parts now and still going. Length of the parts differ greatly, some are like under a minute while the longest ones last around 10mins I reckon.
Basic plot is that a media student called Alex was filming a school project movie when strange things start to happen, and he gets stalked by the Slenderman. Not gonna start explaining who/what is Slenderman so you'll just have to google it for yourself or watch the series There are a lot more series based on the Slenderman on youtube, imo this one's the best tho.
I generally don't get scared of horror nowadays, but this one's gotten me to check behind my back a few times/get even slightly paranoid at the worst times!
In my opinion, if you are looking to watch a good scary movie, then 'The Grudge ' and 'The Last Exorcism' can be a good choice. I have seen all parts in both movies and all of them were really scary.
The Fourth Kind

I've watched tons and tons of "horror" movies, but this movie really got to me. Don't let the IMDB rating scare you off, give it a shot IF YOU DARE !
