3 Creepiest Movies

[JonFrum]

The original Boris Karloff Frankenstein scared the bejeesus out of me when I was a young kid. Those of you who grew up watching Halloween and the Texas Chainsaw Massacre won't know what I'm talking about.

The Brood by David Cronenberg - Cronenberg is a freak, very disturbed.

Marathon Man - I can't watch the dental scene. That's scary, but in a repulsive way. I prefer psychological horror, but Marathon Man did make me turn away.

Amityville Horror both the 1979 and the remake in 2005
The Haunting in Connecticut (based on true events)
The Exorcism Emilly Rose (the best ones are the ones that are true story's like this one )
So if you need a good scream check these out for your self

I'm glad to see at least a few people post films that aren't necessarily considered to be "horror" films, since "creepy" and "horror" are not synonymous. Creepy means producing the feeling of uneasy fear, a sensation often described as something crawling over your skin. That doesn't necessarily have to be a horror movie. For instance, I found the mere act of looking at the "finished" Michael Jackson after all his plastic surgeries to be creepy. Listening to the monotonic drone of Wolf Blitzer on CNN gives me the creeps, too.

That said, one particular film comes to mind when I think of the word "creepy:

Donnie Darko

Alien (I knew what was going to happen, and that made it worse!)
Poltergeist (Living trees! Animated clown dolls! Skeletons in swimming pools! Mommy, make it stop!)
The Ring (The footage on that damn videotape is one of the most disturbing things I have ever seen *shudders*)

"Critters" scared the shit out of me as a child. For years I feared walking around in the dark. I thought the little killer critter monsters were rolling around on the floor and if I walked around they would get me. It kept me in bed at bed time. I don't have that fear anymore. Now I fear demonic possession thanks to "The Exorcism of Emily Rose" and the show "Paranormal State". I have recurring dreams/borderline nightmares of a demon attempting to attack and possess me. I believe in ghosts too, so this doesn't help.

Allright, these are both creepy AND weird! (both produced several quesey, uneasy moments)
"Naked Lunch" (another David Cronenberg film I think) and
"Gummo"
Watch them at your own peril...
