I'm not trolling; what is new? I'm not sure any of the more recent horror films have been really scary to me. Not that I've seen many of them.

Yeah I didn't mean you. I meant don't troll in general. As you can see the other two comments are trolls. And btw I think a good new horror is Insidious:)

Hm haven't seen Insidious, but heard good things. The films I'd consider scary are Suspiria, Shining and Candyman (all old). The recent horrors I watched were all more leaning to the comedic/slasher side.

I've seen candyman and the shining. I agree that they are pretty scary.

I will never understand how people find that film scary, but to each there own. I just can't see the fear in a random bed sheet moving, or chicken footprints appearing in some salt.

That is because scares/horror is incredibly subjective.

The ring scared me. I think it still would if I watched it again today. And I hate to admit it but Dead Silence gave me an irrational fear of dummies. I watched Night of the Living Dummy after that and could barely handle it. I change the channel when Victorious is on because of the kid with the dummy, I just don't like them now. Totally stupid and I don't even remember what really scared me because that was a BAD movie, but :(

Insidious sucked monkey turds, the whole thing was predictable and I literally called what the ending was going to be 1/2 way through it with 100% accuracy.

Drag Me to Hell was pretty good. I saw it in theatres and some of the scenes were deafening, I'm not sure if that's scary though.

Insidious and Paranormal Activity 3 are probably the two scariest horror movies I have seen.

I thought Insidious did a GREAT job building up tension and creating suspense. It loses it's way a bit towards the end but then that ending finishes it off nicely.

As for Paranormal Activity 3, it has some seriously brilliant scares in it. One of the best horror sequels I have ever seen surprisingly enough.

Oh and the Descent is AMAZING as well.

Annnndd Rec and Rec 2 are both GREAT!

Oh, yeah. Honestly, the TC shot himself in the foot there. Did he want us all to say "Insidious" and "The Ring"? Neither of them were scary, so I'll pass. How about "The House Of The Devil? Oh, and I've seen "The Thing", but I didn't like it. The effects really degraded the movie, for me. It took a scary premise and made it laughable.

The original Candyman and The Thing (1982) Candyman because well...it's just fvcking creepy and has this eary quality to it. The Thing still creeps me out to this day because when I was 5 I snuck (so not a word) out of bed while I was supposed to be asleep and went into the living room where my parents were watching it. I started watching it during the scene where they attempt do defibrillate that one guy and his chest opens up. I freaked the FVCK OUT and the movies still gives me this uber creepy vibe.

Devil was a recent movie that was kind of scary but the scariest movies I have ever seen are the ring, 1403, and the last exorcism but those aren't as recent, I saw Insidious and Paranormal Activity 3 and didn't really think much of either

In terms of tension, it is probably Takashi Miike's "Audition". In terms of "scares" it is probably "Pon" (Korean "Phone"). In terms of creepy-as-f*ck, it is probably "[REC]".

I knew as soon as they said the dad had his own problems that he'd end up getting possessed in the end because "scary" movies never have happy endings.

Obvious ending is obvious.

"Martyrs" and "The Orphanage", of recent memory. I will mention classics though with "In the Mouth of Madness", "Fire in the Sky", "Exorcist" and "Evil dead" being among my favorites in the genre.

Can I just ask what people's obsession is with "The Descent"? I tried so damn hard to like it. I love the genre itself, but ugh. I enjoyed it heavily, up until the horror part came in. I would have enjoyed it as another one of those "trapped in a cave" movies. It's like as soon as they appeared, all direction sort of just fell flat.

That would make more sense. I thought this was one of those "I-knew-what-was-going-to-happen-the-moment-It-started" situations. Yeah, it was quite obvious something was wrong with him from the beginning.

Alien was pretty scary, especially the sound of the movie. There hasn't been any really scary movies that have shocked me for a while, Insidious wasn't bad but wasn't really scary either.

Now that I think about it, I think I made it half way through, but I knew the ending and everything else based on research. It was just a very well-made movie, especially for a horror movie.

Another chick that finds "The Ring" to be scary, but not "The Shining". Eh.. BreakingDeath
Not really sure what that's supposed to mean.. I only recently (within the last five years) managed to watch The Shining. I'm sure if I was a child I would have absolutely crapped myself. The Ring was one of my first horror movies(late in life, parents never let me watch anything scary), so I really can't judge between the two. Scary-movie virginity and "seen every trick in the book" viewings aren't the same, by the time I saw The Shining I'd watched all sorts of things. I don't know if I totally missed the psychological mind-F that was supposed to be happening during The Shining but it didn't do much for me. Perhaps I'll give it another watch, but I didn't love it.

I don't know if I totally missed the psychological mind-F that was supposed to be happening during The Shining but it didn't do much for me. Perhaps I'll give it another watch, but I didn't love it.

It's just my way of pointing out a connection; females seem to be afraid of blatant freaky/horror movies, rather than slow-tension building horror movies. Ah, all right. Again, "scary" is subjective, I just find it weird how people(girls) are terrified of "The Ring", but don't flinch while watching "The Shining" - I'm the complete opposite. Have you seen "The House Of The Devil"?

After all the years watching horror movies I've realized that horror movies are not scary. The only thing that can make most people flinch is a cheap jump scare (something flashes in front of screen, loud noise after lengthy silence, camera turns to find whoever standing right there). I do appreciate a good movie with great atmosphere cause it can make you feel tense, but not really scared. Only thing recently that had some good atmosphere moments was The Innkeepers and Lady in Black. Not great movies but at least watchable and you can tell the people actually put some effort into them.
