What is the scariest movie you've watched?


Recommended Posts

OMG, you are SO adult... We can all tell by how much maturity oozes in your post.  Way to one up everyone on the website without knowing anybody.  LOL!

 

Oooh, you really showed me...

 

Anyway, I think "most disturbing movie you have ever watched" would make for a more interesting thread.

Hello,

More terrifying than scary.

Well, thats because you problably have agoraphobia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agoraphobia

You might wanna see a doctor, Dot Matrix. Im not making fun of you, just seriously giving you some advice :)

 

I cant remember any really good scary movie for years, but, I reckon, any woman is more than a scary movie :)

Sexist much?

Well, thats because you problably have agoraphobia

:blink:

I agree with Dot Matrix, I found Gravity to be pretty terriying, albeit not in the sense that I originally thought was the intention of this thread. I was sat there watching as Sandra Bullock was completely helpless to do anything, drifting further and further away from people that were equally helpless and unable to support her. When you think of the vastness of space, how these astronauts are only attached to shuttles and stations via rope, and furthermore how that shuttle has nothing to stop it from having the slightest malfunction and causing things to go FUBAR...agoraphobia doesn't enter in to it for me, I find the situation of complete helplessness to be terrifying.

I might watch that again over my lunch break. I really enjoyed that film.

Wow, getting scared terrified by that is pretty weak; Thats what I ment that he (and yourself) might suffer from mild agoraphobia. Very wide open spaces.

I mean, I would be scared if I was in that position. But knowing its a movie, I dont know.

Then again, I think Gravity sucked so :laugh: maybe thats why I see it differently.

 

I have a friend who has a fear of open water and she can't watch that film.

Thalassophobia or aquaphobia?

Can she go to the beach? Im not sure if its being IN open water or just seeing it.

Weak? Wow, thanks for being insulting. People are scared of clowns whereas I am not, I don't call them weak for it. :no:

I don't suffer from agoraphobia. If anything it's the opposite, I hate crowded spaces and can't wait to get out in to a more open area. My issue is a lack of control and a feeling of helplessness. In the situation put forwards in Gravity there is nothing that Sandra Bullock can do to stop herself moving further away from Earth, and there is nothing Houston can do to get her back. Even if it were possible, the ship is wrecked so there goes the possibility of getting home. I could continue through the rest of the film with the various disasters narrowing down the choices and making things look more and more unlikely, but let's not ruin the entire film for others that haven't seen it.

To continue the topic, I was having this conversation with some friends last night and one of them said that the scariest film they have seen is Session 9. I've not heard of it before, and the cast and synopsis don't give me too much hope, but I told them I would give it a go sometime soon. Let's see.

it's been a long time since i've seen it, but as far as i remember, it had some really intense scenes, where i got scared to death.

I watched Alien when I was 8 years old, it was terrifying, to this day it still makes me feel uneasy watching it. Amazing work, thats how you do a monster movie, you barely show it. The suspense of wondering what the Alien would become as it kept growing kept me so on edge, and even though you only saw it for flashes, those flashes scarred me.

The 1999 version of Sleepy Hollow. Watched it as kid and it scared the living crap out of me, especially this scene :

Couldn't sleep that night. Kept dreaming I was being decapitated by the horseman.

 

These days, I usually watch horror movies with friends and we laugh harder than we would if we were watching a comedy.  

The Exorcist - Director's Cut

Yep... This movie is one of the craziest I have ever seen. Impressive. smile.gif

The Exorcist: Director's Cut is also VERY scary.

Same for me. The Exorcist.

No, no, no, I wasn't calling you weak. Trust me, the things I have phobias of, you would laugh your ass off :laugh: I wont say them in public because it is embarrassing.

Also, agoraphobia is, I think, for both ways: Crowded spaces and open spaces :)

I was simply stating that saying that the actors' position was terrifying is weak; I understand spooks, gore, etc. but just someone floating in space without any kind of "action" is I don't know......

Like I said, I never liked Gravity as film so.

    • Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 by Razvan Serea Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) is a utility for completely removing AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL graphics drivers and related packages from your system, attempting to eliminate all leftovers (including registry entries, folders and files, driver store). Though AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL drivers can usually be removed via the Windows Control Panel, this uninstaller tool was created for situations where standard uninstall fails, or when you need to fully remove NVIDIA or ATI graphics card drivers. After using this driver cleaner, your system will behave as though it’s the first time you’re installing a new driver—similar to a fresh Windows installation. As with all such tools, we recommend creating a restore point beforehand, allowing you to undo changes if issues arise. If you're having trouble installing an older or newer driver, try it—there are reports that it resolves such problems. Recommended usage: The tool can be used in Normal mode but for absolute stability when using DDU, Safemode is always the best. Make a backup or a system restore (but it should normally be pretty safe). It is best to exclude the DDU folder completely from any security software to avoid issues. You do NOT need to uninstall the driver prior using DDU. Requirements: .NET Framework 4.8 Compatible with Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11 (32-bit or 64-bit) Note: Using on Insider Preview builds is at your own risk. Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 changelog: Added 'Reset to recommended' button for the Options. General fixes and improvements.

WACUP 1.99.51.24568 Preview changelog: Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when doing some of the drag + drop actions within the media library window Fixed a loading crash seen related to a problem with some of the artwork cache image files being restored which should now be better handled allowing for the bad image to be removed without it failing Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when the internal metadata cache clearing is triggered which could block the main ui thread for too long with this now being moved to a background thread Fixed some performance issues with some of the methods related to determining artwork support which mainly affected the local library import / refresh (this is still slower for some compared to other players because there's more data & artwork aspects being checked for which means doing more processing on a single file despite the best of attempts to reduce duplicate / heavy processing where possible) Fixed a crash with the JTFE based missing files hotkey which no one seems to have used for an age for this to appear (maybe it's time to seriously consider stripping out features that aren't being used) Fixed how some of the file types which use extra information to reference their sub-songs is handled which was preventing some from being correctly resolved back to their base file (noticed fixing above) Fixed an issue with the handling of files with underscores in their filepath which wasn't being correctly handled causing some of the filename to be lost when shown as the title if title reading is delayed Fixed a few things that might be behind NotSoDirect not being stable for some setups though am still not certain that the changes done for this are going to fully resolve the problem from the crash reports Fixed the OS toast handling when there's no prior shortcut in the OS start menu to now create the shortcut (needed to allow the yes/no buttons for the new build / post-release toast) to be done as a hidden one so it's less likely to cause annoyance for those not wanting to see it whilst still allowing this less than ideal OS api implementation requirement to be met to avoid toasts without the needed buttons Fixed a regression when moving from taglib1 to taglib2 which broke some of the handling in place to allow for external programs to still access files when wacup has a held open cached instance of the file Everything else Updated cppwinrt (gen_win10shell.dll) to 3.0.260520.1 (26 May 2026) Updated libcurl (libcurl.dll) to 8.2.1 (24 Jun 2026) Updated Monkey's Audio (in_ape.dll) to 13.15 (28 Jun 2026) Updated mpg123 (mpg123.dll) to 1.33.6 (6 Jun 2026) Updated OpenSSL (libcurl.dll) to 3.5.7 (9 Jun 2026) Updated pugixml to 1.16 (16 Jun 2026) Updated taglib (tag2.dll) to 2.3.0 (11 May 2026) Updated vgmstream (in_vgmstream.dll) to the latest Git commit from 28 Jun 2026 Download: WACUP 64-bit | 9.6 MB (Freeware) Download: WACUP 32-bit View: WACUP Website | Screenshots Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
