Scariest movie moment and how did you react?

[Demo_Chris]

55. HUGE Horror movie fan...

Sadly, I am no longer easy to scare -- because of my earlier work doing horror makeup I spend most of my time admiring the effects. That, and I have seen so many they start to blur a bit. Let me think...

The Ring did scare me a bit, it was legitimate horror. I liked the TV scene, but what I really liked was that (SPOILER...)

..they made the audience a participant by showing them the (exceptional) video that causes the demon to come. When the movie ended I actually had a second's thought that I better show the movie to someone else and pass the curse along. That's true horror there.

Others scenes / movies that impressed me...

Hostel. I loved the pacing, and the sheer filth of the set design was something else.

In the Mouth of Madness. Too many great scenes to list.

Event Horizon. Again, exceptional pacing and fantastic effects. Lots of great scares.

The Shining. I could (and have) literally talk for days about this movie. There are so many layers of meaning here that it would be time well spent. I consider it perhaps the greatest horror movie ever made

Frailty. I am gonna call this horror because in my mind that's what it is. A masterpiece in every respect, and a real throwback to the old school Hitchcock style.

Sixth Sense. I am including this largely because the ending is so good people forget just how scary most of the movie actually is.

FREAKS. If you have never seen this you should. Or maybe you shouldn't. It is without a doubt one of the most disturbing films ever made. You will NEVER forget it.

I am gonna stop there...
