Paranormal Activity. Gimmick? Sure, though when I saw it I was in the mood and any film that manages to make hearing footsteps scary deserves applause.

Both Paranormal Activity 1 and 2 did a good job of creating an intense, scary atmosphere at the cinema.

Someone's knocking at the door - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1303902/

Something about this movie was very disturbing and scary..... oh ya, it's the guy with the 8 foot dick that rapes you till your head comes off.... but he starts off as a very attractive big titty blonde girl.

The Exorcism of Emily Rose (2005 the remake).I'm not religious but still it was creepy

I've never really found films scary. Admittedly, like many others The Shining got me as a kid... but after seeing that at a young age, nothing ever really topped it. Nicholson is just positively chilling in that film. As for horror films focusing on 'gore', I think I speak for most of my generation when I say the evolution of the internet has desensitized me. Becoming a regular user when sites like Rotten and SteakAndCheese were all the rage, the movies just don't cut it compared to some of the real images and videos that those sites hosted. As I got older I took an avid interest in film... and... well... it became hard to get TOO engrossed in a film. Especially when your subconscious spills into the foreground and you realise you're analyzing the lighting, colours, camera angles, music and wanting to write all of your observations down! I remember being told in my first Film Studies class that the way we viewed films was about to change, and unfortunately some of us would never be able to just "switch off" at will. Understandably, this kind of ruins the atmosphere of horror films.

I am not a massive fan of horrors these days, but my favourite horror has to be...

The one movie that scared the **** out of me as a kid was: Stephen Kings "IT".

Movies don't scare me, but The Ring and The Grudge did get the blood pumping a bit.
But after Scary movie 3 i just laugh my ass of when i see The Ring lol

BEEP BEEP Richie! They ALL float down here. When you're down here with us, you'll float too!

Heh, I loved the movie adaption of IT. Even though they more or less butchered the book, but hey, still wasn't pretty close.

The Exorcist scared the crapola out of me when I saw it back in 82 or so at a friends house one night....I was 6 years old lol not the best idea
