[Beware the Beast Man]

1. Great Picks

Very comprehensive, but #1 was fairly predictable.

[jdsmith]

15. It got "Night of the Hunter"

By far the scariest movie I know.

But this list is a little predictable, isn't it?

[Bertha Venation]

2. "Silence of the Lambs" is #36?! I don't think so!

Bogus list!

;)

[jobycom]

6. Really. You could argue that the top 36 scary scenes were ALL

from Silence of the Lambs.

[MsSnood]

3. I can't look. For me, it was

When a Stranger Calls

and when the caller said:

"Have you checked the children" when he kept calling on the phone.

and they were murdered!

That RUINED me on all horror movies! I have not been able to watch ANY since then. That was many years ago!

There was a sequel to that movie that I watched. I almost fainted and wet my pants at the same time when he said "Have you checked the children" again" *shudder*

Screw scary movies. Give me Mary Poppins!

[RebelOne]

5. I loved that movie.

One scene frightened me so much that I spilled a cherry soda all over the guy I was with.

[jobycom]

10. That movie's promo scared me

I've never seen it, but their radio promo played a lot when I was a kid. The DJs used to say they had more requests for that commercial than for any song.

[jobycom]

4. Dumbo?

okay.

[Beware the Beast Man]

7. "Pink Elephants on Parade"

Is one of the trippiest scenes in film history, and inherently spooky too.

[zbdent]

23. Try watching the hippo dance from "Fantasia" while stoned

.

[Cocoa]

8. do I have to click on each one?

someone who's not as lazy as me, are the Deliverance squeal scene, and the last scene from the Blair Witch Project, there?

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

13. Deliverance yes, BWP, I don't think so

It definitely should be though. Really REALLY fucked up!

[Downtown Hound]

25. Deliverance yes

Blair Witch is there but not the climactic scene.

[hatrack]

9. Two (apparent) omissions from the list

The scene when Ripley and Newt stumble through the fog into the Alien queen's egg chamber - very cool, with the queen producing probably the best hiss in horror movie history.

Also, in Seven, when the SWAT team closes in on the guy who's been strapped to his bed for an entire year and whips off the sheet . . . well, you know the rest!

[Beware the Beast Man]

12. Sloth...

That was the freakiest part of the film

[indigo32]

16. Sloth is in there

eom

[hatrack]

29. Damn! Inattention strikes again!

Color me "someone who didn't read the entire list thoroughly"!

[THUNDER HANDS]

17. that's on the list

at least the scene in Seven was.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

11. Who compiled this list? It sucks.

[Skittles]

26. I agree

it's very juvenile. And someone needs to tell them it is SCENE not SEEN.

[bobthedrummer]

27. Pretty trashy, didn't see any Dario Argento or other greats mentioned

"Suspiria", "Terror at the Opera"...

[central scrutinizer]

14. this one's cool

<>

on edit - damn, the exploding head picture doesn't come up

[asthmaticeog]

18. That site's where I got the pic

that I Bushified for my sig photo!

[Ready4Change]

19. One they left out:

In the first Alien movie, when they are searching for the "little" alien and the ships cat bursts out of a locker they are searching.

I watched that with a lady with a LOT of nervous energy holding onto my arm. She drew blood!

[Sticky]

20. The Exorcist

It terrified me for years. To this day I will not even look at an Ouija board.

[FDRrocks]

21. Friday the 13th Pt V

The scene where the fat guy is filming the girls, and Jason slices the underside of his stomache, and his guts fall out.

That deserved to be on there, damnit! :)

[zbdent]

22. I'm blocked. Is the climactic scene in "Fatal Attraction" in there?

You know, the one where she is confronting her lover in front of his wife, picking at her leg with the knife to the point of the blood running down her leg?

[m-jean03]

24. Is anything from The Haunting (original version) on here?

If not, really should be. That film has several heart-pounding/stopping moments!

[Delano]

28. Jamie Lee Curtis gets a glimpse of Michael Myers among the drying laundry.

In Halloween. So fleeting, but chilling.
