User blog comment:Seddie alwayz/What's your favourite Scary Movie?/@comment-4060828-20110906020530

Soooo many... Mostly the classics ala Alien, Aliens, Hellraiser, etc. but I'm bored so I'll make some recommendations 'cause I'm feeling givey right now :)

The Others and The Changeling (with George C. Scott from 1980). Both are really good little "ghost story" type haunting movies.

Critters and Gremlins/Gremlins 2: The New Batch (Critters and Gremlins 2 are somewhat hokey but fun little creatures invade and take over type movies. The original Gremlins is probably the darkest of the three but worth watching before Gremlins 2, as the 2nd movie makes some call backs to it.)

House (from 1986) and Disturbing Behavior (with Nick Stahl and James Marsden) are both decent movies. House is a bit of a weird haunted house/zombie type movie whereas DB is more of a teen mind control type thriller from the late 90's.

Poltergeist only watch if you want nightmares for a while and have never seen it. It's pretty intense scare wise but is generally considered a classic of the genre for a reason. This blows the socks off movies like Paranormal Activity and Insidious.
