What, in your opinion, is the scariest film ever made?
Omnicide:
I think a good horror film tends to be all in the soundtrack- imagine The Shining without the pizzicato or Suspiria without the drums and moans.
I'm going with The Shining- no other film gives me such a lasting disquiet afterwards.

I'm not a horror fan, so this may be a dumb thread for me to post in, but the movie that scared me most was Nicolas Roeg's Don't Look Now. Donald Sutherland is great in it.
I remember going to a party at a friend's flat and he had Suspiria playing on a TV in one room and Eraserhead in another. Hm.
Generally I find things scarier if they're from the 70s, don't know why. :)
Scandanavian War Machine:
i'm gonna go with The Shining simply because of one small scene that haunts me to this day. i don't know why.
the scene where he is walking up a flight of stairs and he gets to the top and looks down the hall to his right and one of the rooms is open and inside is some dude sitting on the edge of a bed and there's a guy in a dog suit sitting at his feet. then they both look over at the camera or stand up or something. it's a really short scene but it's always freaked me out since i was a kid.
also; the naked old lady.

He was actually totally being fellated by the fellow in the bear suit, I believe it was.
I am still afraid to watch the end of Pi. It's pretty scary.

I'm not really scared by horror movies, at least not in terms of scares that last anywhere past the initial jumpiness I have right when a scene takes place. The movie that gave me absolute bone-chilling nightmares though when I first saw it is Silence Of The Lambs. I can't remember how old I was, but it was shortly after the movie had come out on video. I was't even watching it; I had come out into the living room right as the elevator scene was taking place, but that combined with the part where the one guard is strung up in a crucifix pose gave me nightmares for days.
The shit that really scares me is the more psychological mindfuckery, and not so much the slashiness.
