Hi, I love horror movies but I heard that the classics are the best. Can anyone tell me some that are extremely scary that will make you wanna hide under your bed? Lol. Thanks

Turn the lights off in the whole house and watch the original "The Omen" and "The Exorcist". The original "Halloween" is pretty good. If you mean classics as in Black and White, "Dracule" with Bela Lugosi is my favorite.

'The Ring' scares the living crap out of me ... can't watch that on my own!

Oh, and for a classic 'The Shining' scares the bejesus out of me too! Anything with scary little kids in it to be honest! Lol!

"Carrie" with Sissy Spacek.

I agree with Giani, The Exorcist is one of the scariest.

I was just wondering ... not wanting to steal the thread or anything ... but do you think horror movies effect you more as you get older?

I mean, when I was young films like 'The Exorcist' made me laugh because I didn't really understand it!

Now, when 'Silent Hill' came out, I went to see that and it absolutely ruined me for weeks!

Or do people think that it's just that horror films are getting better?

personally i wouldnt say they are gettin better, i think it has more to do with the film quality and the effects that can be done in this day and age.
but sayin that most horrors today seem to focus more on gore i think older horrors were more suspenseful and thats what made them scarier.
then again horror movies have never botherd me so i could be wrong

but i would deffinately say the exorcist or maybe poltergiest. or you can never go past any of the Romero classics like night of the living dead, they may not be oh so scary but they're a damn good watch!! i love zombies!!!

I'm 12 so thats probably true. I was more effected when I was like 5 though, nightmares! Lol. I heard 'The Exorcist' makes you wanna run for your life. I'll have to turn the lights off when nobodys home so I will get extremely scared lol

The Exorcist, Exorcist: The Beginning, The Ring, The Grudge, and the newer Amityville Horror are my top picks of scary movies. These movies scared the H*** out of me when I saw them, and with The Grudge, I couldn't sleep for days afterwards 'cuz I kept picturing the woman's eyes staring at me! The new Amityville movie was like that, too. I saw it in theatres, and was literally close to walking out from being so scared! I thought I could handle it a second time, so I went back the next night, and CRIED afterwards 'cuz it scared me even worse than the first time! I had to leave, and then I didn't want to go outside after it was over! Doesn't help either that I'm terribly afraid of the dark, but I still love watching horror films! Just not alone or with the lights off!
