Has anyone ever been scared by a horror film? I have yet to find a film that scares me, I'd love to find a film that leaves me scared out my wits (weird i know lol)

Honestly? The Shining first time I saw it also Alien. Both of them had me hiding behind pillow.

Evil dead scared me when i first saw it, as i was 9 and watched it while staying in a woodland farm house which my auntie owned, I was scared of going for a walk the next day in fear of being attacked by the 'evil fog'. That and a tree could have raped me. Also in the wood there was a place where all these wind chimes were hanging from trees around these gnome statues... frick'n wierd.

A cartoon about Dracula, I was 5 at the time. Only film to give me nightmares, but strangely turned into someting about Thundercats. Also only the bad one I can remember

i haven't found 1 that scares me yet, but 1 did leave me a little uneasy and that was Stephen kings Pet Cemetry. It wasn't so much the story or the effects. It was the little boy. He reminds of when my son was little.

I'd recommend watching What Lies Beneath on your won with all the lights off. (every single one - no cracks in the curtains and cover up the little red powerlight on the tv!). Turn the volume up and have a new pair of pants handy.

Also i saw an ace slasher called Switchblade Romance. Originally in french called Haute Tension (high tension). It's pretty hardcore.

Those killer dolls from 'Barbarella' scared the crap out of me when I was five...

That clown in Stephen King's It, think its name is penny wise. The film itself should be renamed SH "It" but my god that clown

I never used to be scared of horror films and used to watch them in the dark on my own. Then a weird thing happened I went to see The Blair Witch Project at the cinema when i was about 6 months pregnant. Not sure if it was a hormone thing but it scared the bejesus out of me. I had to sleep with the light on for about a week, and now horror films are a big no no. Shame really because i used to love them.

Ginger snaps fight the crap out of me when i first watched it, although i was on 8

this is silly but the first time i saw scream it scared the wits out of me lol.mind you i did have the lights of and my ex phoned me at the same time playing about saying stuff like "i can see you" silly prat

I'm quite embarrased to say this but...

Blair Witch, lol don't laugh. I was young when I watched it anyway and by myself lol

Gotta be honest, no films have actually scared me!

kids movies scare the hell out of me. especially disney. I got more nightmares from these than anywhere else!

oh i forgot about this one it still scares the hell out of me even now......dont laugh

the never ending story

i know your laughing but what the hell its a flying dog for god sake and a giant one at that.my dad had bruises for a fortnight when i first saw this at the pics (i was 5 and that big @ss dog is scary at that age).

(I love the never ending story its great )

But i mostly agree wit Kill ichi, Evil dead was the only film that truly scared me....n i also was afraid to go into the woods for a while after watchin that film lol.

Yes, when I was about 15 many years ago!!! It was a balck & white french film called "Eyes without a face". Very scary and now very topical, it's about a face transplant

American werewolf in london ( only the moors bit ) i was 5 when i 1st watched it. not a nice thing at that age

The Burning. But maybe the reason that movie has had a lasting impact is because we weren't allowed to watch it, but did anyway, and our babysitter thought a fitting punishment was to flip the lights out and chase us round the house with a pair of garden shears laughing maniacally!!!

I'm not scarred honest, we all laugh about it now.

The Haunting, (the remake with Liam Neeson and Catherine Zeta Jones etc) - i was like 12 at the time.
