: ....but,I've seen all of these and the only one that was scary was The Exorcist. The Shining was cool. I never considered it horror. More like a thriller. Amityville was also cool but I really liked Poltergeist. Craig T. Nelson is harsh.
: : The Exorcist is always a good choice. Original release or new.
: : The Shining is excellent, as is Halloween (the original).
: : And for some reason, The Amityville Horror always gave me the willies (of course I haven't seen it since I was about 12, but hey...).
I watched the 1994 version of Frankenstein again the other night. I really like that story and thought the movie was handled fairly well. Plus you've got De Niro playing the monster :)
Or get the 1992 version of Stroker's Dracula
These are classic stories so they may not be enough to scare the shit outta you, but they are still very good.
