I don't have a top 10 list, but I thought The Exorcist was pretty scary.

Comicbook_kid
For someone who has never really gotten into horror and hasn't seen hardly any really good horror films, then the top 10 absolutely crucial films I'd have to recommend would be....

1. The Exorcist

2. Dawn of the Dead (original)

3. Halloween (original)

4. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (original)

5. A Nightmare on Elm Street

6. The Evil Dead

7. The Shining

8. An American Werewolf in London

9. Night of the Living Dead (original)

10. Tie : Hellraiser / Phantasm (either one)

There's so many more I could name, but I feel these 10 classics are some of the absolute very best horror films ever to grace the screen and would make any horror fan proud to recommend...

Doesn't matter. Jaws scared the entire world, whether they admit it or not. Jaws scared the world.

What movie can boast such?

Neo Darkhalen
Jaws did scare, EVERYONE, I doubt there has been, or will be a film that can create that sort of terror, hats of to Steven Spielberg, he really can make a rubber fish, the scariest thing in the world.

Sorry for my late response!

But good to know that like me; you are a fan of horror movies too and have almost similar tastes wink

Neo Darkhalen
I like the old horror films

I was referring to "Ju-On: The Grudge." It is a classic.

And Cabin Fever may not be very well done but it's story is strongly associated with some dark realities of life.

A very dangerous bacteria called "Necrotizing Fasciitus" exists and it is actually termed as the flesh eating bacteria because it can eat skin and flesh of its victims alive. Hence the story of this movie focuses on a terrifying but invisible enemy like that bacteria.

And during times of danger, chaos and anarchy; people often don't act nicely due to selfishness and fear and reveal their true colors. Hence the characters shown in the movie represent such people.

So I recommend Cabin Fever to all horror fans because it is different from traditional horror movies.

Neo Darkhalen
Fair enough.

I don't see lots of those (even The Grudges American remake) as being any worse than the Saw movies, i quite liked the first movie, but they just became absurd and tiresome very quickly. I'd write a list but most of the ones i'd put on there have been said so...

Nightmare on elm street (possibly my fav horror movie)
