Funny how none of those movies scared me at all... especially the exorcist

Neither me. I was bothered by Omen when I was younger. Suspiria scared the ish out of me when I was younger.

NOES wasn't even scary, how the hell could it even get 1st-3rd place.

It was in your opinion, it wasn't in mine.

Most people that I have talked to that saw A Nightmare on Elm Street when it first came to movie theatres felt it was scary. Those that are in their early twentys or younger didn't. Thats probably because of the later installments in the series killed any sense of fear established in one before the freddy character became a horror icon and a joker. I personally didn't find it scarier probably because I'm twenty but when I talk to others in their 30s or 40s, they speak of how generally afraid they were of the first film.

Well I've been watching horror movies all of my life, they're pretty much my favorite genre of movie so I guess that's got to count for something, aye? It was a good movie, no disagreement on that, but it just didn't scare me. I've yet to actually see a movie that does.

Your right EVERYONE thought it was scary as hell on its release...i was one of em.
Part 2 had a kind of feverish nightmare quality about it too viewed on release at the cinema.
3 and upwards were just fun popcorn horror flicks.

I never considered NOES scary... Freddy scary? I'm too young to have seen NOES in theatres when it was released so Ive grown up with Freddy as hell's favorite comedy all my life.

I've grown up with horror movies I mean it me and my Grandpa used to sit down and watch them all the time me and my dad as well.

I was really young though when I saw NOES and it was the scariest movie I had ever watched. The reason because Freddy could kill you when your asleep and can't fight back really.

That concept scared me more than any other Horror Movie ever has.

Nightmare on Elmstreet is about as scary as Elmo, the Shining has to be one of the scariest films ever!!

I'm in half agreement. You're right with the first part, but not the second. . The Shining didn't scare me either.

This doesn't surprise me.

The concept of A Nightmare on elm Street is perhaps the most disturbing thing I've ever heard about in my life. The idea that some unkillable spectre awaits you in your dreams is insane. Can you imagine how you feel when you haven't had enough sleep? Well, add the tension, nervousness, and paranoia that your mind and body would have to endure... that would be the most insane thing ever.

Sleeping, you've gotta feel like you're at a state of rest. Knowing that there's something lurking for you when you sleep could turn a person insane.

Well nothing scare me , Exorcist sucks , Nightmare On Elm Street <----{Buuuuuuuu sUCKS , " Halloween " Take the first place - 4=me -

I just disagree that NOES ranks as the scariest movie ever...not going to argue with anyone about,I just don't think it deserves a number 1 ranking...but I do agree the first 2 were good and did scare me as a kid,but they got to campy and turned into a total joke after that...And any bad thing said abou the Shining is blasphemy.

Id say SUSPIRIA is the scariest movie ever.

That movie didn't scare me that much

Heck, the only scene that scared me was the ghostly demon face during the priest's dream, that scared the ***t out of me

Heck, the Exorcism of Emily Rose, was more frightening that the Exorcist
