The Hitcher... the original version with Rutger Hauer. that scene with the truck - despite being completely non-gory - messed me up something fierce.

/S

Dog Soldiers

I find it very entertaining.

Psycho.

One of Hitchcock's best.

nilcypher:
A Tale of Two Sisters, a Korean psychological thriller/ghost story and possibly the most disconcerting movie I've seen in a long time.

Seconded.
Also: Wolf Creek
Prince of Darkness
The Last Broadcast
The Ring trilogy (japanese versions naturally)
Phantasm (or any of the sequels)
Event Horizon
The Descent

Thats all I can think of off the top of my head.

Darkness Falls, the evil film made me jump (at a part with no baddie!!)
28 days later, just dont call it a zombie film on this site (even though it blatently is)
Evil Dead Trilogy, Evil Dead 2 is the best one
Black Sheep, Its' about killer sheep for jebus's sake

1408. A psychological thriller that actually works.

Make it three for a tale of two sisters

Alien (the first one): Slow pace, but oh so claustrophobic. Also i find facehuggers to be the single most creepy thing ever invented.

marebito isn't all that scary, but gives you LOTS of shivers down the spine.

And in the case of nice jump scares, seek out One Missed Call (the original by Miike): Not only that the film has "fun" heartattack-scares, it also makes fun of all these "Ghost with long hair in some piece of technology" Movies like the Ring in a sarcastic way

The most recent actually creepy movie I saw was The Grudge. You have to ignore the fact that it's Sarah Michelle Gellar, but that's surprisingly easy to do.

- J

The Orphanage
The Eye - not the cruddy American remake, the real one.
Uzamaki (the Spiral or Vortex) - not outright scary but very very very odd.
The Grudge 2 (American version) - strangely good, and probably very cheap!

Susan Arendt:
You know, I keep hearing Dog Soldiers is great, but the premise seems...well, silly. But I've watched movies about deadly cows, so I guess I shouldn't pretend I have standards.

Tried Phantasm and Prince of Darkness, hated them both, but The Descent is brill and Event Horizon is damn fun eye candy. Not familiar with The Last Broadcast or A Tale of Two Sisters, but I shall investigate further.

Really? I found Phantasm II & III hilarious. Helps watching them with friends i suppose. Same with Prince of Darkness.
Also forgot to add Black Sheep, a NZ horror film, and so very funny.
If you havent seen them yet, Bad Taste and Brain Dead are worth ago, again, very funny silly films. Theatre of Blood is an old Vincent Price flick, not scary as such, but good fun.
Reanimator is a camp classic. Near Dark is a decent 80s vampire flick. Slightly less brainless than Lost Boys. Theres always Jeepers Creepers 1&2 for sheer silliness and murdered teens too.
And then there is May, which gave my friend nightmares.
The Thing
Original Cape Fear and Night of The Hunter
Silent Hill gives my fiancee the willies.
The Eye (original not remake)
Ju-on: The Grudge

TheGhostOfSin:

Black Sheep, Its' about killer sheep for jebus's sake

How did I know that would turn up? Not really scary but highly horrifying for all the wrong (or right depending on you point of view) reasons.

Wolf Creek, one of those "It could actually happen..." movies based on real life serial killers in the Australian outback. Will make you think twice before accepting help from strangers.

Hide and Seek, De Niro and Dakota Fanning. Well acted and very scary especially cause its a kid doing the scaring.

Hmm...years of horror and sci-fi/horror have made me immune to scary films...that said, The Thing(Carpenter's version) is the only movie left that still gives me jumps. Maybe it's the puppetry, I mean, there's no CG or anything, so it's all so visceral rather than cheesy.

Eggo:
Americans do a terrible job with horror movies; just watch Audition, Tetsuo, and for something with a bit of video game influence, Oldboy.

Shortly after that, regret doing so for the rest of your life.

My god yes. Made my fiancee watch that the other day. The denoument brought a cry of "Oh fuck no! WRROOONG!"

Ooh, thought of another one- Dusk Til Dawn
Carrie
House on Haunted Hill
all the George A Romero zombie films, which i'll assume you've seen anyway.
The Omen, again, not the remake.
Severance
The Wicker Man (NOT THE REMAKE DEAR GOD NO)

i must be stupid; no scary movie has ever made me scared though al of them have made me laugh
though i whould recommend "the eye"

I honestly wouldn't reccomend Dog Soldiers, it's not scary, it feels stupid. But that directors next film The Descent, is VERY scary and has some great images and scares, just turn it off as soon as you "think" it's over, that ending is better.

Session 9 is good if you like subtle scares and find old Mental Institutions scary.

Jacobs Ladder, the film that inspired the Silent Hill games is pretty good.

Audition, japanese flick, is interesting as it starts out like an Indie Romantic Comedy then turns into a Noir Mystery and ends like a terrifying Nightmare. The shift in tone is what makes it really scary.

John Carpenters "The Thing" is brilliant, especially if you like freaky deaky monster design and movies about paranoia.

In the Mouth of Madness is alright, especially if you like H.P. Lovecraft, but it's not brilliant.

The original Texas Chainsaw Massacre is very, very raw, suprisingly violent and very scary because of that.

If you're choosing between the North American version of The Ring and Ringu, I reccomend the NA version, it's got tighter film making and better acting.

The Hills Have Eyes remake is amusing, not that scary but it's got some great scene work.

Videodrome, a David Cronenberg Classic, is very good, not exactly "scary" but very cool.

Braindead (if you can find it, otherwise settle for Dead Alive) rocks the show, but it fits in the Evil Dead 2 category.

The original Dawn of the Dead is pretty good and fairly bleak.

Silent Hill has a piss poor plot but the visuals make it worth watching at least once.

Black Sheep is truly silly and very gory.

Braindead is Dead Alive

Shutter, the original korean version, easily the scariest movie i've ever watched

Mimic. As long as your not a insectophobe.
The Devil's Backbone. (Truly Brilliant)
Ringu.

Anything with Vincent Price, Peter Cushing or Christoper Lee.

Or you could watch Streetfighter....that's a scary scary film.

Susan Arendt:
Oh, HELL, no, I am not watching Oldboy. I know more than enough about that to know that there are some things that simply cannot be unseen.

The Thing is a great choice, one of my favorites. Alien, too. Haven't seen either in a while, so it might be time to roll them out.

I think Wolf Creek had been built up too much for me before I watched it. It was well done, very sparse and tense, but I was ultimately unsatisfied. I think I simply went in with the wrong expectations.

May is brilliant, and surprisingly subtle.

Let me make a recommendation of my own: Venom. Creative kills and one or two truly horrifying moments. The story of the villain's creation is a bit silly, but surprisingly well-done film, just the same.

I'll have to look that one up, thank you ^^ Don't know if it counts, but Dark City I enjoyed a lot.
Last one, one im kicking myself for missing:
Slither.
Its got Nathon Fillion in it. That should be all you need to know.

The Japanese version of Pulse! The American one stunk

I second the 1408, it was a good movie.

Susan Arendt:
Oh, HELL, no, I am not watching Oldboy. I know more than enough about that to know that there are some things that simply cannot be unseen.

What's wrong with Oldboy? I thought it rocked the show, it's just more of a NeoNoir mystery than a horror movie. What scene are you referring to.

Oh, if you enjoy excessive Gore and S&M check out Ichi the Killer, but if you don't care about gore, DO NOT WATCH IT! I saw an edited version and that pointed out that without the violence, this movie has a stupid plot and no real redeeming features. If you're gonna check out Miike, watch...

Imprint (Masters of Horror) or
Audition

Those are two of his best. Oh yeah I forgot one...

The Brotherhood of the Wolf (IN FRENCH, never see this movie in english on pain of death) is quite good, despite some silliness.

Oldboy isn't anywhere nearly as bad as Audition or Tetsuo :]

I actually thought it was more of a thriller than a horror movie.

Tetsuo is just...ugh *shivers*
Audition is pretty good.

Oh yeah, and Battle Royale
would have mentioned Ichi, but wasn't sure if it counted or not.

Can't really contribute much, I nearly shat myself watching Mothman Prophecies, so obviously not a fan or scary stuff. I have heard that Dog Soldiers is good, or you can watch this stunning masterpiece of cinema, known as Werewolf in a womens prison, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j01dPdN5Fbs

More votes for Tale of two sisters (Korean version if possible).

Really anything from Korean/Japan will be better than most western horrors.

Reincarnation is also one of my favorites.

[Rec]'s probably the best horror film I've seen in years and is well worth a look before Hollywood butcher it (It's gonna be called Quarantine when it gets released in the states). I also heartily recommend The Thing, Jacob's Ladder, Oldboy (I can guess what part you've heard about it, but you really, really, really need to see the movie. It's surprisingly beautiful when it wants to be,) and the original The Grudge.

Only one thing I've got to say about Audition: Kiri kiri kiri kiri... *Shivers*
