Horror movies don't do anything to me, but watching surgery...that shit scares me.

I love the piano wire scene in Audition.

That part is pretty creepy.

Another scene, towards the end when a guy in a bunny suit is giving this older man a blow job. That doesn't seem scary, but the way Kubrick shot it, plus the score behind it, fucking freaky.


Others:
American Werewolf In London is my all time favorite horror film.
Has everything I want (horror/comedy/gore/boobs/).
The dream sequences always scared me as a kid.
Watching the character (David) breaking the deer's neck and then eating it is fucking creepy.

The Exorcist
When Regan is sitting upright on the bed, head spins around.
The mother's nanny runs towards the room and the door slams shut, the dresser then follows barricading it. Regan then starts to talk with an english accent "Do you know what he did? You're cunting daughter?!!"

many others, but i can't think of any more this second.

This part of Hellraiser scared me when I was younger.

I'd say about half of Zombie Holocaust really freaked me out.

Watching Dead Ringers on the big screen made me incredibly uncomfortable. The crazy twin gynecologists using their tools for torture and pleasure really freaked me out. Not so much blood and gore, but psychologically, it was not something I wasn't prepared for.

well, there's 'scared' freaked out and then 'wow, that's fucking sick' freaked out.

ichi the killer had tons of the 2nd kind, but not so much of the first.
the shining had lots of the first but not so much of the second.

The Omen
That chilling shot of Damien's first nanny hanging herself from the roof at his birthday party is unforgettable.

The Big Wheel crap bothered me much more than the twins.

I thought The Shinning was a lot scarier than The Shining.

The part in The Thing when Doc uses the defibrillator on Norris and gets his hands sliced off. Also, when they're all strapped in the chairs and getting their blood tested.

The night scene with the lightning storm in Open Water.

OK. So this isn't a horror movie. But I rarely ever have to pull the "cover the eyes" bit in a movie. HOWEVER, the scene in Old Boy when he goes to rather insensitively remove the dude's teeth with the nail removing portion of the hammer I had to divert my eyes from the screen. It was one of those scenes where I not only looked away but I like grabbed my jaw because the thought of it made my mouth hurt.

On that note, the 'put your teeth on the curb' scene in American History X.

oh hell yes. awful.

Man, those are all good ones. I'm going to have to think about this...

Oh shit The Thing, good call.



i just shuddered.

but then doesn't half of Jackass work there as well?

Going into the alley behind Winkie's in Mulholland Dr.

Just about any Bob appearance on Twin Peaks. "What happened to Josie?!"

Fred disappearing down the dark hallway in Lost Highway.

This is easily the most disturbing thing I've seen. It is just so visceral and basically impossible to forget. Not scary but unsettling. I'll take the torture scenes in Ichi and Audition, the cutting of the Achilles in Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance, the drowning in feces in Dead or Alive, the rape scene in American Me, and the "manipulation" scene in Hard Candy before this any day.

No movie scene has ever disturbed me more than the scene of Joe Pesci being beaten within an inch of his life, then buried alive in Casino. The violence and brutality of that scene is just so realistic and unflinching -- Scores Easy really hit that one outta the park.

American History X - The Curb scene

Scary violence? So far for me absolutely nothing will come close to the shocking curb scene in American History X.

When I was a kid I loved B-Movies, but as an adult I don't really go for conventional horror movies. The scariest movies to me are ones that have "that could happen in real life" type scenarios. So movies that I find engaging and scarey are thinks like Peckinpah's "Straw Dogs" or Speilberg's "Duel".

Awesome movie. So simple, so perfect.

You can't watch it on cable, though, as the commercial interuptions ruin it.
