    I may not have been "scared". But The Ring left me with a weird feeling even after the movie was over.

    the exorcist and the original nightmare on elm street when i was a kid. i also saw the original blob with steve mcqueen when i was in grade school and was totally freaked out by it. the ring had a very creepy element to it, although i wouldnt say i was scared per se.

    The Exorcist still scares me.

    When I was a kid, two movies scared the crap out of me - Grizly & Slithis! Both look cheesey now, but when I was a kid camping out or fishing, they did play on my mind!

    I can definitively say "The Exorcist". That one scared the living bezeeus outta me...That was what I liked about horror movies in the 70's they were far more psychological and relied less on gory effects. Also that scene in the Omen...when the woman is on the second floor and she says to damien..."Damien...Im doing this all for you".....and she jumps out the window with a noose around her neck....talk about disturbing....

    redcatt63 is around here somewhere......

    I like scary, but not gory. Love Hitchcock movies. when I was younger, "Psycho" was pretty scary...but, "The Birds" really freaked me out!
    Another one was the old, original silent version of "Nosferatu." I watched it as a pretty young kid, and then when sleeping over with my cousins at my uncle's house, in the dark, a coat rack with a long coat and a light hat looked like the vampire in the dark. I was too freaked out to fall asleep!

    I saw it peeking around the corner when I was 6 or 7, so I don't know the title. (My babysitter thought I was asleep, btw.)

    It was on some tropical island. There were some giant lizards that just kept growing, and a jeep crashed into one and exploded. Anyone recognize it?

    Rose Red. I was at home, sort of recovering from surgery, and my mom made me watch it with her. I was only in fourth grade. Then (and now) I wasn't a big fan of scary movies, since I was younger I had nightmares about the zombies getting me and turning me into one. *shivers* I was proud of myself, because it was the first real scary movie I ever sat through.

    Alien and Jaws both scared the shit out of me when I was a kid, but now I seem them for what they are - fake monsters, and ketsup for blood. More recently, 28 Days Later, and 28 Weeks Later really freaked me out!

    Alfred Hitchcocks *The Birds*. I was older when I saw The Exorcist so it didn't really "scare" me although I believe it is the best horror flick every but when I was little The Birds really spooked me.

    Well, when I was about to turn 4 I had a heart surgery, and my mother tells me that I was watching the Wizard of Oz while in the hospital, and I was hooked up to all sorts of monitors. Although my face didn't change, apparently my heart began beating extremely fast when the witch came on. So I guess The Wizard of Oz freaked me out!

    The Ring is a strong contender

    But I loved Alien, because the setting was perfect and the film had an excellent tagline (In space no-one can hear you scream)

    That is one of the most hostile movie creature to have been created.
