Love' em!! The Tingler with Vincent Price. It will make your skin crawl!!
Anything with Peter Cushing.
Anything with Lon Chaney or Bella.

Love the 1950's sci-fi flicks also. " Day of the Triffids, War of the Worlds, Cronos, The Day the Earth Stood Still, Valley of the Gwangi, I could go on and on!" Great stuff!!!!

I like "The Shining". I like "crazy people"-scary more than "blood squirting supernatural"-scary.

Yes it is! it was produced in the 50's and scared the sh@t out of me when I first saw it. Vincent Price just had a way about him. "The Red Mask", was another good one. I could watch them for days. I grew up with them. While everyone else was watching cartoons I was watching horror and sci-fi flicks. He did alot of Edgar Allen Poe movies also. The Raven, The Pit and the Pendulum, Tell Tale Heart, great!! Many of his movies were cast in the U.K. The Brits have a way with making them that was great! Watch some of them.

I decided on this post after watching a movie last night titled "Ginger Snaps". It is a werewolf movie. What a lot of crap.

I like horror movies.

The Shining was scary, but The Exorcist was even scarier.

To me, nothing beats "Halloween". John Carpenter did a masterful job doing that movie. It is still copied in many ways today. Plus, it is the introduction of Jamie Lee Curtis.
