"A Nightmare on Elm Street. Why? A slasher that kills you in your sleep! It doesn't get much scarier than that."

So...
"What's your favorite scary movie?"
"Okay, not favorite in the sense I love it (I don't love scary
movies. I'm a total baby when it comes to them) but best scary movie because it
scares the crap out of me! Annabelle, I hate dolls! Chucky gave nightmares for
years. And my sister liked to collect porcelain dolls that freaked me out. One
talked, and it would randomly says very weird things. No dolls allowed in my
house!"
"Hands down, my favorite scary movie
is The Others, starring Nicole Kidman and directed by Alejandro Amenábar. It's
more of a psychological thriller than a horror movie; all chills and no
gross-out stuff (I hate gross-out stuff). Also, it's a character examination
against a spooky backdrop with some phenomenal acting. Not to mention all the
creeptastic sets (the movie takes place in a remote manor in midcentury
England) are absolutely beautiful. And the haunting soundtrack... This is the
one scary movie I choose to watch over and over just because it's gorgeously
made."
"For
actual horror I'm tempted to say Army of Darkness or Tucker and Dale vs. Evil
but those might count as comedy so maybe Event Horizon? Pandorum was a better
movie but Event Horizon terrified me. I watched it as a teenager in the middle
of the night at my friend's house when his family was out of town and it
creeped us out so much we drove back to my house to sleep where we wouldn't be
the first people to die."
"My favorite scary movie is Paranormal Activity. I love found
footage films and my favorite ones are where I have to question it authenticity."
"The Thing: John Carpenter is one of my favorite horror film directors. The music along with Kurt Russel's acting, some slight humor and a great plot
makes this movie an instant classic."
"Monsters INC. Yes, the Disney movie because I don't
do scary movies!!! But Monsters has strange creatures popping in and out of
closets so maybe that qualifies."
Did your favorite make our list? Leave a comment and tell us which scary movie we should watch this year. Next week, vampires vs. werewolves-the GH authors and editors duke it out in the age-old debate.
Until next week,
the GH family
