Scariest Movie in the last 5 years (Page 2)

I'm also a pretty big horror buff, as much as it may creep my wife out...

Anyway, I LOVED "paranormal activity".  I've also heard mixed things from others, so I guess it's personal preference.  If you liked Blair Witch (my favorite horror movie of all time), then you'll like PA.

The original SAW is very very good.  I like the sequals, though they pale in comparison.  I'm glad they are finally ending it with 7.

I liked Quarantine alot, though I've heard the original "[Rec]" is better. 

The remake of "The Crazies" was pretty good.

Zombieland and Shaun of the Dead were both great comedy horror movies.

I'm assuming you saw 28 days later.  If not, it's a must watch.  The sequal is "Ok, not great"

The Descent was good.  If you have clausterphobia or are scared of the dark, this movie would terrify you.  I just watched the sequal this week, and found it "OK"

If you like camp, the Afterdark Horrorfest movies can be sat through, but otherwise steer clear.  I've seen about half of them (they are on the 4th year) and there are a few gems but most suck.

Rob Zombie's "House of 1000 corpses" and "Devil's Rejects" are very messed up.  I actually liked the 2nd much better than the first.

See now I liked Blair Witch and I hated Paranormal Activity.

I here the original Japanese versions are pretty nuts.
I think that there is one called "The Audition" that is pretty twisted.
Anyone see it?

moondawg14 - 2010-10-01 12:33 PM I have this feeling that "Waiting for Superman" will be the scariest movie I see all year.

furiousferret - 2010-10-01 7:57 PM Haven't really watched any in the past few years, however my #1 has to be Amityville Horror, probably because I was too young (7?) to see it. 

The other one is the Shining.  I used to work in a hotel that had the exact pattern in the hallways as the scene when the sisters popped up, and I used to get freaked thinking about it!

"Saw", "Hostel", etc. (I like SCARY, not gruesome for gruesome's sake.)

Leegoocrap - 2010-10-03 1:55 PM I will not name the movie, as I do not recommend anyone EVER watch it. I'm afraid typing it's name would spark your interest enough for you to download it (as, thankfully it is not available in the US... and hopefully never will be.) and, I mean it when I say, although you might *think* you want to watch it... you do not.

I have always had an "iron stomach" when it came to grotesque, "shock" and thriller... however, this film goes 100% beyond that. It is the only movie that has ever given me nightmares. When I say, after watching this movie, I literally felt like I needed to scrub myself with an SOS pad and Clorox... I truly mean it. Images I saw can NEVER be erased. And yet, it was *better* written, acted, and filmed than Inception...which is saying a LOT.

All three of my friends who watched it with me agree, it is both one of the most genius movies, and all agree, it was absolutely the most unbelievably horrific film ever... and none of us will ever...ever... watch it again. Deleted from the hard drive, and the disc broken and thrown away.

I suppose I will say, it is a 2010 film. Don't go any farther down the rabbit hole.
