10 scariest movies of all time

The Omen (1976)

Is this movie really that scary? It's actually true. And that part with the bloody dogs is always one of the scariest scenes. Of course, we are not talking about a sequel or a remake, but about the original, a terrifying cult classic.

Submerged shadows (What Lies Beneath, 2000)

Is this movie really that scary? Well, yes… very creepy, a bit tense, sometimes shocking. It's everything you'd expect from a horror movie.

The Evil Dead (1981)

Is this movie really that scary? Imagine that you are one of five students who decide to vacation in an isolated cabin somewhere in the woods. After finding the tapes, you unleash demons and ghosts, all of which lead to bloody chaos. Scary? Pretty much!

28 Days Later (2002)

Is this movie really that scary? It's a bit odd to have two films combined into one, but that doesn't matter. Try to find a more tense and terrifying opening to a film than this gruesome chase at the beginning of the sequel.

Alien (1979)

Is this movie really that scary? Perhaps this is the most general choice on this list, as there is no shortage of alien movies that vary in quality and content. But if we take the first film about the eighth passenger, then this one is really quite frightening and a landmark in the sci-fi genre. The sequel definitely loses out on the horror, and the whole thing becomes more of a mess.

Poltergeist (1982)

Is this movie really that scary? Did this movie really not scare you? Not even when you watched it when you were younger? Maybe re-watching watered down the scares a bit, but it's still scary enough to give us goosebumps.

The Exorcist (1973)

Is this movie really that scary? Maybe you think it's too silly, but it's actually not far behind other horror movies. It's still enough to make you cringe like a cat.

Paranormal Activity (2007)

Is this movie really that scary? It's scary all the way to the end, except that this one disappoints us a bit. But the rest of the film will by no means leave you indifferent.

Psycho (1960)

Is this movie really that scary? Maybe not today or maybe not. Some people find old movies much scarier than modern horror movies and thrillers, where we know that everything revolves 'only' around special effects.

The Shining (1980)

Is this movie really that scary? Undoubtedly, it is a great film that will not leave us indifferent. It also has no shortage of scary, terrifying elements.
