#7 Lord of the Flies

What made this movie scary was not the threat of a supernatural force nor scenes of murder and mutilation but rather the realism of the movie. Everything that happened in this movie could really happen. This events of this movie show that people can become monsters in their minds. In this case, it's a group of once ordinary boys.

Another intense phycological thriller from the marvelously morbid mind of Steven King. In one little room all the darkness in a mortal man's mind slowly comes to life.

#5 An American Haunting

I found this movie not only scary but also very disturbing. It has it's slow points but also some intense points. It introduces a supernatural force beyond explanation AND the horrors of incest.

#4 The Amityville Horror (2005)

The story of the Amityville Horror is now said to have been a big scam, but it makes for a nice work of fiction so what the hell?
It makes the origonal version look like a joke and it has the scariest final 10 seconds I've ever seen in a movie.

#3 The Grudge 2
What was once contained is UNLEASHED in this movie and seeing humans become one of THEM was a nice touch too!

#2 Cabin Fever

Fairly realistic movie. While camping in the woods, group of teens fall victim to a flesh-eating virus. The scenes showing the virus' effects on the teens are very grotesque and convincing. The teens get infected with the virus through contact with contaminated water of infected blood. They also fall victim to their worst impulses, which makes it even scarier, made me very quesy, indeed.

#1 The Excorcism of Emily Rose

Words can't even begin to describe the emotional impact this movie had on me. It opened my young mind in ways I never expected. We live in a very gray world in very gray times. Where is the black and white?
Do good and evil truly exist? If so, for what reason? Can good ever truly triumph over evil? In this life, are there any certainties?
Is it really important to have "faith"?
