    It's not the best, but The Strangers is severly underrated.

    I'm gonna assume you've seen the more famous classics like The Shining, Rosemary's Baby and The Omen.

    This is a pretty solid list of haunted house films with a good summary on each: http://omghorror.blogfaction.com/article/101857/feature-the-20-creepiest-haunted-house-movies-ever-made/

    From it, I'd particularly point out The Haunting (1963), The Devil's Backbone and The Innocents.

    Paranormal Activity kind of freaked me out; that and the woman who mentored me in film is her best friend. And her other film was directed by a personal friend of mine.

    Cube (1997)

    That movie was so boring. I couldn't even get all the way through it.

    Ahh, that movie was brilliant. I actually loved it.

    I quite enjoyed the Amityville Horror (the remake), and The Messengers. The Hills Have Eyes was pretty awesome too.

    Although you can't class Jeepers Creepers as scary, I thought it was hilarious and a fantastic film as well.

    Seconded.

    28 Days Later, 28 Weeks Later, and [rec] are all quintessential zombie movies.

    Repulsion & Rosemary's Baby, both by Roman Polanski

    Jeepers Creepers is pretty awesome.

    The second movie was pretty good too. More of a suspense factor in that one.

    The Messenger I thought was complete and total dog shit really.

    Me and my friend walked out of the theater going "um....That was fucking gay".

    I see that as a generic shitty horror movie of the 2000+ generation.

    Starting with strangers. Jumpy but not scary at all. To me it was no better then the new prom night which I thought sucked major balls. Also I have seen the shinning. It was the best psychological horror movie I have ever seen. And as for paranormal activity. I had a bunch of friends say it sucked but that movie trips me out. Scary shit. All these ideas are good thanks guys.

    I'm watching The Shining as we speak and it's definitely good. I wish download paranormal activity after I get to watching American Psycho.

    Paranormal activity had like 15 minutes of excitement through the whole damn movie. The rest was eventless shit.

    As much as I wouldn't mind seeing more of her tits, they'd veer from the horror aspect of the movie.

    Thats what half the people say. The other half says its eerie as shit IMO. But i do know where your coming from.

    You guys have shitty taste in women. That girl was nastier then Namaste or whatever the fuck her name is. IMO

    First of all to the justing Beiber comment :facepalm: fml. And second of all that girl from paranormal was not attractive in any way. not even a little bit.

    Of course you wouldn't find her attractive; you're homosexual.

    You should look into the following:
    May
    Session 9 (I can't really stress this one enough, watch it NOW)
    Cthulhu
    Jacobs Ladder
    [REC] and [REC]2
    The Orphanage
    Pet Semetary

    Theres so many good ones really. (and a fuckton of bad ones, case in point:Blair_Witch_2_cover.jpg)

    Another good one I just remembered is Dead End (2003). Low budget, but surprisingly effective. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0308152/

    This scene is prettly lulzy out of context, but I remember seeing it in the movie and thinking "damn, thats pretty fucked."
