The original Haunting of Hill House done in 1963. Scared me to death (nightmares to this day) and read the book (written 1959) with the same results. I steer away from scary these days!

Psycho has always been one of my favorites.

A few of my older favorites:
"The Haunting" with Claire Bloom; probably the scariest movie from my childhood.
"The Changeling" with George C Scott
"Stir of Echoes" Kevin Bacon
"What Lies Beneath" Harrison Ford

I don't like gross, bloody movies - I like old, classix b&w horror flicks - Bela Lugosi, Vincent Price, Boris Karloff

Psycho, a perfect film in every aspect (acting, cinematography, score, direction, etc.). Only one movie has ever given me a nightmare, a harmless film I saw as a very young child called "The Shadow On the Wall". Not at all a horror film but one scene still gives me shivers. The film is so old (and so am I) that the social worker was played by Nancy Davis, now Nancy Reagan, former first lady.

The Changeling - George C. Scott
The Shining - Jack Nicholson
Storm of the Century by Stephen King
Amityville Horror - James Brolin
Blair Witch
-Can't watch them anymore either now that I'm older and have to get up so many times in the middle of the night
