Creepy Movie Moments!


Creepy Movie Moments!

Creepy movie moments that just won't leave your head! We all have them. Even though we can differentiate between fact, fiction, reality, and Hollywood back drops .....there are still movie scenes that will forever be with us. Like the infamous shower scene in Psycho - which to this day freaks my stuff out, in so much as, I have a glass block walk in snail shower. I see it all, no surprises! Also key point in those stick-with-you-forever-scenes is the music that goes with it. In this movie, it was Bernard Herrman's music that has been repeated hundreds of times and when I hear it, I instantly visualize the shower scene. *I'm damaged now!*

So what movie scene has stuck with you over the years....decades?!

Re: Creepy Movie Moments!

Update! I watched one of the creepiest movies I've *ever* seen yesterday, though I didn't expect it to be so unnerving - the Machinist, with Christian Bale, directed by Brad Anderson. It's about a machinist who hasn't slept in over a year who begins to lose touch with reality (but perhaps not for the reasons you'd assumed). Sounds interesting but not frightening, but I swear, I had to pause the thing multiple times because it felt vaguely like being slowly stabbed with some kind of corkscrew - psychologically, anyway. You just feel so awful for two hours, jeez.

Re: Creepy Movie Moments!

There's a fine line separating creepy, scary and gross - one of the 'creepiest' movies I've ever seen is 'The Tenant' (or Le locataire) by Roman Polanski. I'll probably end up giving away the plot if I describe it, but it's basically about a man who moves into the apartment of a woman who attempted suicide who starts 'absorbing' her personality. Which, needless to say, is not a very pleasant one - given that she jumped out a window and crashed through a glass roof.

You'll know what I mean after the first twenty minutes - one particularly creepy/memorable scene shows the woman in a full body cast, screaming - all that's visible of her is a black hole in her face. Shudder. Who knows what Polanski was thinking. I recommend you watch it if you want to be deeply disturbed. Part of the reason this film's so unsettling is that it's so subtle, it isn't histrionic or overdone, just damned weird.

As for the previous posts - those twins are CREEPY. But what creeped me out most in 'The Shining' were those montages with all the dead people, particularly the one involving that man with the figure in the dog mask in the hotel room. Scared the hell out of me.

My Top Creepiest Movie Moments: 

Se7en (Seven)

se7en The part when they find this man and their first speculation was that is was a corpse....however the man was still alive!!

 

The Sixth Sense 

sixth sense When the teenage boy asked Cole if he wanted to play with his father's shot gun. It was the first scene where the audience believes they see the first ghost.

 

 

The Blair Witch Project

blair witch At the end when you see the dude facing the wall and then the camera falls. The witch got 'em!

 

 

The Pet Sematary 

petsematary The scene where the man's dead wife kisses him....then stabs his @ss!

 

 

Halloween

No other scary movie villian got under my skin quite like Michael Myers.

You're upsetting me....on several levels.

Re: Creepy Movie Moments!

For me, it wasn't the shower scene of Psycho. It was the ending... After I saw it, I sat there for 10 min with chill bumps when I saw just how deep the characters ran.... Still my favorite movie.

Re: Creepy Movie Moments!

I think 80% of Hostel falls under creepy movie moments...

like when he sliced the back of his ankles....... and then started walking...... ewwwwwwwww

Re: Creepy Movie Moments!

 See I really really hate horror movies.  Well about about 6 months ago I walked in to catch just a part of SAW 2 and well it left me with nightmares and totally freaked me out......

 

That was the part I saw - I watched like all of 5 mins of it and had to leave the room - yep I'm a horror movie chicken for sure! I hate to say clicking on this thread may end up making me have dreams tonight - ugh

 

Re: Creepy Movie Moments!

 The Shining has to be one of the creepiest movies ever!  The little girls...

"Come play with us, Danny..."

 And this horrifying scene:

 

PS- That clip from Trainspotting is disturbing on so many different levels.  Fantastic movie though.

Re: The Shining

I'm going to have to agree with you on this one.. the lady in the bathtub is still scarred into my mind.. The person in the bunny costume on the bed is another very 'creepy' scene..

Re: The Shining

i'm thinking this face alone does it for me

Tuna ><((((*> the other white meat! I am Keeper Of The Whip!

Re: Creepy Movie Moments!

Anyone remember the movie Trainspotting?:

trainspotting

Re: Creepy Movie Moments!

That's a great movie. Lots of funny/disgusting heroin filled moments. The bad-trip withdrawl baby on the ceiling is freaky, but when they find him dead in the crib its almost worse...

Re: Creepy Movie Moments!

I saw the original Carrie at the theater on opening night.  The end where Amy Irving's character has the dream sequence - walking along the sidewalk, stopping at the burned lot where Carrie's house once stood.

She reaches down to the rubble to lay some flowers down and that BLOODY ARM pops up and grabs her!  The whole theater screamed.  I had to sit and calm myself for 10 minutes before I could get up and leave.

Re: Creepy Movie Moments!

anthony hopkins is by far my favorite actor. but i have to say, after silence of the lambs, he is forever Hannibal "The Cannibal" Lecter. and this movie creeped me beyond ever watching the sequels.

Tuna ><((((*> the other white meat! I am Keeper Of The Whip!

Re: Creepy Movie Moments!

"I don't know where I'm going from here, but I promise it won't be boring."

Re: Creepy Movie Moments!

*edit: Sorry I forgot to add the name of the movie

The Ring 

the ring This crap creeps me out everytime i see it, no matter how many times I see it.

Re: Creepy Movie Moments!

 The movie The Exorcist always manages to give me that, looking over your shoulder for a demon, feeling.  There are so many creepy scenes but the one where Regan (Linda Blair) does the spider walk down the stairs, is one of the worst.  I can't even watch it without half covering my eyes.

 

"I don't know where I'm going from here, but I promise it won't be boring."

Re: Creepy Movie Moments!

yeah another creepy scene which I won't copy here, is what she does with a crucifix!

LOL!  Call it payback for posting that picture of the girl from The Grudge.  Until your post, I had never actually seen her face.  I'm not kidding.  I always shut my eyes when they showed it!  You scared 10 years off my life!  Hahahahaha.

"I don't know where I'm going from here, but I promise it won't be boring."
