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 noticing a distinct lack of Terrifier and Terrifier 2 in these comments. Art the Clown is perhaps the best antagonist I’ve ever seen in the horror genre and true originality is rare in the modern horror filmscape.

    The Ring is also good for originality as far as modern classics, though it’s a whole book series in Japan.

    Edit: I also liked The Shrine, forgot to mention that one. Again, originality.
