Top Ten Scariest Movies

10. 28 Days Later (2003: Directed by Danny Boyle)

Just because its number 10 don’t let it fool you, this movie has a great story and plenty of scares to spare. Being the only movie that was filmed in this decade to make the Top 10, with multiple horror movies released each year this one truly deserving of its spot at number 10.

9. Friday the 13th (1980: Sean S. Cunningham)
This movie is one of the greatest “horror/ slasher” film and like most of its peers TOO MANY sequels have been made. Regardless of all the failed tries to surpass the original nothing could blemish what made Crystal Lake a forever scary place.

8. Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974: Tobe Hooper)
Why do you think there’s chainsaws galore at every haunted house... You guessed it Texas Chainsaw Massacre, this movie single-handedly made the roaring engine of a chainsaw truly scary.

7. The Thing (1982: John Carpenter)
What’s scarier than being in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by nothing but snow and being chased down by a man hungry alien/creature?

6. A Nightmare on Elm St. (1984: Wes Craven)
Freddy Krueger in general is just a insanely creepy guy, throw in the fact he can control your dreams and kill you while you’re asleep and you have a perfect horror film. (And for those of you that hate all horror films this movie started Johnny Depps career)

5. Night of the Living Dead (1968: George A. Romero)
This movie I feel has created more books, movies spin offs and horror films than any other, opening the door to the dead walking the earth.Plus it's also a really good movie

4. Halloween (1978: John Carpenter)

Michael Myers might be very scary and overall the movie is just great, but the music in my opinion is what set this movie apart from some of the other slasher films. Every aspect of this movie is terrifying which makes it a timeless classic to watch on Halloween (of course).

3. Psycho (1960: Alfred Hitchcock)

Psycho is one of the greatest horror films made by one of the greatest and most influential directors of all time.

2. Alien (1979: Ridley Scott)

This horror film by Ridley Scott made space an even more terrifying place then it already was.
“In space no one can hear you scream”

1. The Exorcist (1973: William Friedkin)
There still isn’t a man, woman or child that isn’t terrified while watching this movie. It is the SCARIEST MOVIE OF ALL TIME
