What are the scariest horror movies?

I love horror but apparently I don’t vibe with a lot of recommendations I find online.

I’d seen so much hype about Event Horizon and I absolutely hated it and didn’t find it scary. I just watched Late Night With the Devil and whole it was definitely enjoyable, it wasn’t the least but frightening. I also just watched Let the Right One In and really didn’t like it. It also was not a horror movie in my opinion.

I will say one of my favorites is Sinister or the first Conjuring. Sinister for the stomach twisting dread and suspence throughout and Conjuring for the same.

So, what movies do you find to be the scariest?

I’m pretty dead inside so not a ton can get through in the horror department, but I always thought 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later did a fantastic job making zombies a bit scary again.

Today ,

Cloverfield - not sure if thats horror

Frailty

Insidious

As a kid i loved the early Jason and Freddy movies.

“Host” fucked me up and is the reason I don’t watch horror movies anymore. I’m a huge baby though.

As Above, So below is reasonably solid

There’s a bit of a Mary Sue issue but otherwise good.

The original Candyman.

Everything about it is excellent and holds up even now. The musical score is exceptional.

Don’t bother with the reboot. It has a message it’s trying to send, which I get, but they’ve done it to the detriment of the horror. Something could’ve been done with the premise but they fell short.

OG all the way.

Drag Me To Hell was surprisingly scary and also just a good movie.

If you like the supernatural/demon ones, check out The Autopsy of Jane Doe. I loved it, the tension is absolutely perfect and a fantastic cast to boot.
