I have never screamed at a scary movie, at least none that I can remember so I can't really help you there. The only times I can remember being scared while watching a scary movie was either because something jumped and it startled me or somebody in the room with me did something. So I try to watch movies with bloodshed and gore, like Saw (which was great), to make up for not actually being scared.

I just asked my mom if there were any scary movies that made me scream and she could only think of the Wizard of Oz, which isn't scary but she said I didn't like the flying monkeys.

I love, "Pet Sematary", "The Exorcist", & "House". "House" is one of my favorite movies these days!

Go have a look at other post on here in the movie section and there is a list of movies that someone came up with.

You can always watch the classic Halloween Movies. Not that they are scary but they are kinda creepy and has you wondering whats going to happen next. I've learned so much about the halloween movies from everyone on here that makes watching them agin that much better. There is just something about the older horror movies that makes Halloween a great time of the year for scary movies.

The one movie I can't even bring myself to watch, so I don't know how scary it actually is, but the previews for it scared me so bad, that I could never watch the movie...it is:

Salem's Lot

The best scary movies to me...that scared me to death are:

He Knows Your Alone

Silent Scream

Silent Night/Deadly Night

Don't Go in the House

Waxworks

Prom Night

Carrie

My Bloody Valentine

The Fog (the original)

Witchboard

The Omen (The Original)

The Exorcist (The Original)

Terror in the Aisles



New movies aren't scary-I said that before.....they are just gross out movies.


The only movie that is newer that I actually thought was scary was:

Joyride


and I think the movie "The Craft" is pretty good for a fairly newer movie

The beginning scene in the movie: When a Stranger Calls Back- it scares me...cause it is realistic.

Its not a movie that will make you scream, but "Halloween "is one of my all time favorite movies. The music and stuff is so creepy. I have the Halloween Theme as my ringtone on my cell. I know I didnt answer your question but I just wanted to comment.

I agree with Spooky. Salem's Lot, the orginal min-series with David Soul, is one of the scariest movies I've ever seen. The scenes where the vampires are knocking on windows in the middle of the night can give you major nightmares!

Ok so I gotta agree that all the movies listed above are pretty good.

Have you seen Jeepers Creepers? If you watch that in the dark, late at night...definitely extremely freaky. My husband and I are pretty <deleted> horror movie people and we were both freaked out.

i've pretty much been de-sensitized when it comes to scary movies.

Myself as well.

I overdosed on the movies that were truely scary when I was a child.

CARNIAL OF SOULS. (original version)
Forget screaming..but this thing wil HANG on you..there are the usual ghoul chasing the distressed chick around, but you have this one scene, where she is playing at the organ and gets this LOOK in her eyes..like someone else is behind the wheel...and it really creeps you out..you get a sense of impending dread that is quite unlike any other movie I can name..and the sequences at the Carnival are so first rate, they were studied at film schools for years. The director used to make those safety films you had to watch in school and that MST3K made fun of..I find it the perfect andetote to having seen and heard it all...

I find that what scares us (other than something jumping out of the closet which is shock more than fright), is entirely personal.

I found Gattaca and Handmaid's tale pretty horrific becuase of the terrible worlds they portrayed.

But a good film that either is very effectve or not effective at all is

The Woman in Black.

This is a british film that very slowly builds the creepiness up and has the only scene that I remember really getting anyone in audience (at my film festival) to scream in fright. Very good film.

Alien had (for the time) a very gruesome scene with the chestburster and plenty of creepy scenes in the ship.

I almost forgot The Blair Witch Project, which is probably the scariest movie I've ever seen due to the realistic way it was filmed. Some love this movie and others hate it; mainly due to the media hype that the kids were actually missing, and then finding out that it was all a hoax. I don't care if it was all just a marketing scam because the film is spooky as hell to me, and definitely a must see for the Halloween Season!!

I agree about TBWP. My better judgement told me it was a marketing thing, but I let myself believe it was true, purely for the theater going experience.

To sum it up...... it genuinly scared me more than any flick in a long time.

The scene where they are being attacked in the tent at night by some unseen force, and the one at the end in the abandoned house were freaky. Altogther one of the best I've seen to date!
