"Scariest Movie Ever?"

We all have our favourite horror/chiller films, and generally we enjoy being scared. So what are all of your favourite scary movies?

I recon the scariest film I have seen is The Ring, it is very messed up and disturbing, despite a slightly bizzare storyline.

So, what sends shivers down your spines?

You can't watch a horror film saying, "Its not real, I know better than this" you have to open your mind and stuff.

Bah, I don't let films rule me like that, it's almost as bad as someone controlling your thoughts, subliminal, like.

It's scary if you let it get to your head.

I didn;t.

I cacked myself when I saw the mother get pulled through the tiny pane of glass. Note: I cacked myself out of laughter, not fear. Even an infant can find it hilarious :D

Is that Isaac's Revenge, where the girl gets sliced in half and the blood is black, opposed to red? If so, it sucked big fat donkey balls.
