What, in your opinion, is the scariest film ever made?
fish across face:
The remake?
Will:
I really, really wish that Silent Hill hadn't been made as a video game-to-movie port. I thought that the movie itself, as a standalone, was not all that bad. It had some really cool visual moments - the scenes where the ash is falling like snow is, in my opinion, quite beautiful - and the acting wasn't all that bad. If it had JUST been a movie, or even a movie inspired by the game, I think it would have worked. Instead, it tried to be a movie adaptation of the game, and of course did not succeed.
Lines:
I never played Silent Hill, but I really enjoyed the effects in the movie. I wasn't scared while watching, more like intrigued by how awesome the creepy things were, especially the guy with the triangular helmet head with the chain. He was awesome.
But then again, I guess I have problems with scary movies. I usually end up really liking them. Slashers are pretty sucky, though, I was never a fan of those. I prefer good ghost stories, thrillers, and religious-type horror movies.
Favorites are: Alien and Aliens (not so much the other two, but these two are amazing), The Shining (omg AWESOME), Silence of the Lambs (probably on my top 10 favorite movies of all time), Se7en, The Exorcist (for the time period, the effects are pretty sweet), IT (probably why I think clowns are creepy and this was the first movie that ever really did scare me, because I saw it when I was around 7 or 8?), and Rosemary's Baby (classic). I own all of those except The Exorcist and IT and watch them several times throughout the year. But yes, scary movies are good movies when made very well.
Ravenbomb:
Scariest in general: Paradise Lost: The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills
Scariest horror movie: Audition nowadays, but the time I've been most scared by a movie was when I first saw Halloween.

It's a remake? I know it's based on the Wes Craven novel.
