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.

    • If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though
    • OpenClaw now has native mobile apps on iOS and Android by Karthik Mudaliar OpenClaw, the viral open-source personal AI agent, now has its own mobile app, available on both Android and iOS. Users can pair the app with an existing OpenClaw gateway and can start using new mobile-native features that are now available on the app. The app supports all the existing features you'd already have seen on OpenClaw's TUI, as well as some more, such as real-time and background Talk mode, action approvals, sharing from iOS, and optional access to device capabilities such as camera, screen, location, photos, contacts, calendar, and reminders. These features are available on both the Android and iOS versions of the app. What's important with these apps is that they don't run OpenClaw on your phone, but are actually just companion apps that require a running OpenClaw Gateway on an existing device, on macOS, Linux, or Windows via WSL2. To pair the app with your existing OpenClaw gateway, users need to run the command "/pair qr" on the TUI or existing chat interface, which brings up a QR code. Users can then scan this QR code to pair it up with the mobile app. There's also an option to manually pair the app by entering the host and a port. Previously, OpenClaw had been available on phones via WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, Matrix, and others. Now, with a native mobile app, the interface is much cleaner and more focused on just the OpenClaw, of course, with the added support for camera, screen, location, and more. It's important to note that OpenClaw comes with its own security warnings. There's always a chance of prompt injection with these tools, so users are recommended to double-check authentication, tool policy, sandboxing, and execution approvals rather than prompts alone. For users well-versed with the AI harness, a native mobile app makes it easier to approve an automation, share a link, use voice, or let an agent react to phone-side context.
    • Google pitches Spanner as one database for all AI agents with these new featues by Karthik Mudaliar Google Cloud is introducing new features within Spanner, its distributed database, as a place where enterprises should keep their data, using which AI agents could make smarter and better decisions. In a detailed blog post, Google highlighted quite a few features coming to Spanner, including relational data, graph relationships, vector search, key-value access, full-text search, and operational analytics together in one database architecture. Google says that today's systems aren't well-made for AI agents. There could be data that is present in one system, search indexes in another, embeddings in a vector database, and relationship data in a graph database. This fragmentation isn't great for AI agents to do their jobs because they don't have access to all of this data in one place. This is where Google is positioning Spanner as a solution. Spanner is already a globally distributed relational database with strong consistency, and Google wants its customers to see it as a broader data layer for AI applications. The company introduced something called Spanner Graph, along with integrated vector search, full-text search, a Cassandra-compatible key-value endpoint, and a columnar engine for analytical queries on operational data. Google also added that its ScaNN-powered vector search can support indexes with more than 10 billion vectors, while the columnar engine can make some analytical scans up to 200 times faster. All of this isn't just exclusive to the Google Cloud Platform, and there's support for multi-cloud as well. This comes via Spanner Omni, which Google says is a downloadable, containerized version of Spanner that can run on Kubernetes and in environments outside Google Cloud, including Microsoft Azure and AWS, and even on-premises infrastructure as well as edge deployments. Google says that customers who are interested in the full-featured edition should contact the company, and there's no word on commercial availability or separate pricing. Those interested can read the full blog by Google Cloud, which details these features individually.
