I think the movie is called Possession, it's about the little boy who was possessed and that which Exorcist is based from. I think that one was freaky along with Amityville 1 and 2.

No offense to tcm its a great movie (origonal) but i didnt find it scary at all, though it has one of the best storys any horror movie i've seen in a while has. Would be better if they didnt make so many damn sequels/remakes : TCM remake, Leatherface, Leatherface2 etc.
the scaryest film i have ever seen was this one that was only released in america and japan, called redsquare or something, and i still hate that film. has any1 heard of it? know where i can get it back?
I think it's still the exorcist because that shit happens 4 real!!!
The only thing that was f**ked up was that it was so hard to get that demon out of that girl.They made God look like a weak little wimp
For me a 'scary' horror film is something that makes you think not something that gives you a quick jump and then its over, films notable for making you think in my opinion are 28 Days Later, Threads, The Wicker Man and The Amityville Horror.
Threads ~ Is not necessarily a horror film but has some pretty horrific and chilling moments in it, the plot centers around the lives of a group of ordinary people in the lead up and aftermath of a nuclear fallout although pretty dated by todays standards this film still serves up some pretty chilling moments.
28 Days Later ~ Director Danny Boyle has always been known to offer something gritty and original in his films and 28 Days Later is no exception what really chilled me about this film is the concept of being truly alone knowing your family, friends and all those who you knew around you are likely to be dead, the steadycam filming added to the gloomy atmosphere, another factor i found chilling was the concept of society without law and order although this has been copied dozens of times (everything from Waterworld to Assault on Precinct 13) 28 Days Later offers a new and quite frankly sinister twist. The music also successfully adds to a tension covered atmosphere that adds elements to the 'anytime now scenario' which is a firm favorite in the film genre, however what are we expecting to see the walking dead as portrayed in countless zombie flicks or nothing merely our focused characters imagination getting the better of him. Being a British Resident the familiar surroundings as portrayed in the film add a chill or two often pointing to the fact that this could really happen just another point that leads me to state 28 Days Later as one of the scariest films ever in my opinion.
The Amityville Horror ~ Even before viewing this film i had a keen fascination with ghosts and up there with Borley Rectory was the infamous Amityville Horror, having read countless accounts of the events surrounding the Amityville Horror i took these into account whilst viewing the film for the first time, again what really chilled me about this film was the some elements of truth behind the film, films with some elements of truth always chillied me particular in the horror sense as they say fact is scarier then fiction.
The Wicker Man ~ Now alot of viewers of this film would brush it aside for its lack of blood and jumps but its what you don't see thats where it gets you, Sir Christopher Lee (who else) is on top form as the films bad guy whilst Edward Woodward gives a gripping performance as the films hero whose faith is tested to the limits in the film, the ending has stayed with me ever since i first viewed the film some time ago and although you actually don't see anything happen its where your mind takes over and begins to really scare you.
The BBC made a program about 12 years ago called GHOSTWATCH. It was set up as a documentary filmed live in two locations, a studio, where Michael Parkinson interviewed experts and skeptics about ghostly phenomenon. The other location was in the "most haunted house in England" where Craig Charles investigated the goings on...
...before things went horribly wrong. I watched this again recently on DVD, and, like most films that terrified me as a youngster it failed to have the same impact today. At the time however, little Samhain was only a child and so fell the BBC's prank and spent the rest of his halloween night in tears. Show it to a child under the premise that it is real and I can guarantee they will be scared witless.

Wow someone else remembers it, i remember Ghostwatch it scared me senseless, it was only a year or two ago that i found out that it was all a set up, shows how good the set up was, i had been looking for it for years on video or dvd and this year i finally managed to track down a copy on DVD and now own a copy of it.
