The Exorcism of Emily Rose? Not scary exactly tho..
nishantv2003
Feb 28, 2008 at 9:08 PM
i think omen and the blair witch project r the kind of movies where no face of ghost is shown but at the same time the movie is scarry.
The acting in the blair witch project is superb.
and did any one seen 28 weeks later? the direction of the movie is excelent.

My review:

The Ring (Both parts) - Good but not very scary
Ringu (Original Japaneese version of The Ring) - Good but English version is better
The Grudge (Both versions) - Very good. Better than The Ring
Shutter - I have watched it but didnt find it scary. Only last scenes are somewhat good. The Ring and The Grudge are better than Shutter.
28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later - Good. Same as other Jombies movies.
Exorcist - Not very scary.

I found following movies are better than the above horror movies. Although following movies are not horror but you get much thrill:

The Hills Have Eyes - Part 1 is excellent. Part 2 is not that good.
Wrong Turn - Both parts are good.
Saw - First 3 parts are great. 4th part is waste.
Hostel - Part1 is excellent. part 2 worst.

well you guys havent seen anything such called as HORROR yet if "U" havent got a touch of Grudge.

Watch The Grudge I & II, other horror movies(like The ring I & II, omen, Exorcism of emily rose, & some others which I dont remember) listed above are nothing comparatively, Mind You Again watch both parts in a Dark room Alone[This environment is a must] & That Thingy will haunt you for days together when ur All Alone

If ur not strong @ heart then just ignore wat I said above ^^ :-|

GET THE TASTE OF HORROR AND PRIOR TO THAT FEEL THE HORROR ​

Which Shutter are you talking about? Recently I watched "Shutter" which was in Thai language (I think) with English subtitles. In which the a couple kill a girl on a road in a car accident. At last the actor finds that the girl ghost was sitting on his soldiers.

I found 2 Shutter on imdb:

*www.imdb.com/title/tt0440803/
*www.imdb.com/title/tt0482599/

and coming to the movies, the ones i liked were,
The ring(1 and 2)

Amityville Horror

I thought I quoted it, but added it for the ones who are interested.
Yes, 1408 is ok, but is not that horror (rather frightening)
Silence of the lambs and Cube Trilogy both are one of a kind, wondrous, within their own thriller genres!

i did a search and found 'The Shining' to be the no.1 horror movie of all time.
But i have seen that movie and its not that scarry but the acting is superb and its one of the longest english movie iv seen.

Amen to that brother.Both Evil Dead 1 & 2 had given me countless nightmares back when I was a teenager.Now nothing seems spooky or horror enough.Ring is not even close to be being called a horror movie.Grudge yeah may be but I'd say the last good one was 13 Ghosts.I've seen Shutter.Awesome plot & some good spooky moments but still it has something missing.;)

Evil Dead? I call these as Ketchup Movies:D No horror, just Blood(Ketchup)

The Grudge 1 & 2 are surely the best movies I have ever seen. I like horror movies and to be honest these were the only ones (where the girl comes down through the stairs) where i had swicth on my Lamp:D

I saw someone suggesting The Blair Witch Project... I must tell you one thing I know. That movie is based on a movie called Cannibal Holocaust from 1980.

It is the goriest movie I have ever seen. One of the most controversial ever. The director was jailed by the police cause they thought that he murdered the actors for the movie (It is called snug movie I think).

With series of violence. Nudity. Killings. Eating animals and humans. Beating. Blood. But the message the movie gives is good.

Watch at your own risk. Beats the blair witch any time.

On digitian's recommendation in must watch movies thread i watched SHUTTER movie with english subtitles. As i'm nocturnal, i watched this movie at night 2 in the same environment you guys told. with headphones,lights off, alone in the big room. . after movie finished i could not sleep till 6.30 in the morning. when i woke i was feeling my shoulder is heavy. . like in the movie. i was so much involved in the movie. although i watched ring and ring 2 at the same timing. . i dint find them that scary.

Like to add Nightmare on Elm Street.Was really scary when I had initially seen it.Sad thing Jason could not pull off such an impact.

The thing I hate about modern day horror is that they only have brief jerky moments.They are what I call shaking moments wherein the sound is cut off & there is a sudden chilling sound which would just shudder you for sometime.Nothing that huge but it looses the classic horror charm.

Classic movies had a good low-budget feel & the creepy environment which could truly be regarded as a scary film.I remember the day I had seen Hellraiser & it was honestly very bizzare.A thing which you would easily expect from a Clive Barker movie.

Shutter is in Japanese (or Thai?). You will have to watch with English subtitles.

Even i couldn't sleep properly the first time i saw it (I've watched it thrice, and even time i cant help but scream :p). Actually the scares NEVER stop in this movie! It doesn't let you catch your breath!

When i saw 'Shutter', some time it looked like i was seeing 'Grudge'.
Although the movie is diff. but sometimes it gave that feeling,
by the way the ending of 'Shutter' is better and very shocking.

Any more good movies like this guys???
