Finding a “Real” Scary Movies are so hard nowadays. i mean meh, I have watched a lot of horror movies but only few of them are even 4/10 for me personally. see?! that’s not even a good rating and it got me wondering what are the Most Scariest Movies Ever Made?.
I spend months, days and a lot of coffee to find these movies on the internet and on every social medias! and today i’m going to share these sacriest movies with you! Here are The 10 Scariest Movies Ever.
The number one on our list is the movie “Hereditary”. It came out in June 2018. Writer-director Ari Aster made his big debut with this film. It’s a super scary family drama about grief and supernatural events. Toni Collette’s performance as the troubled mother Annie was so amazing, but sadly though she didn’t get an Oscar. The film has a lot of big surprises that of course i won’t reveal. “Hereditary” impressed many viewers and even made Ari Aster a famous director. that is why it is on the number one spot the 10 scariest movies ever.
You might not think The Exorcist is the scariest movie ever, but it’s not a surprise that it’s at the second spot of our list with 19% of the votes. William Friedkin’s movie about a child possessed by a demon and the efforts to remove it became the highest-earning R-rated horror film and was the first to be nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars, winning two awards. Besides its success, the film is famous for causing a big reaction across the country, with protests and reports of people feeling sick and fainting while watching it. Even though its pace and effects might seem old-fashioned now, the movie still has a strong impact on viewers.
Quite a few of the books and stories by Stephen King have been made into movies, with quite a few of these movie versions considered classics. Some well-known ones include Carrie, Misery, and Pet Sematary. There are other popular films also which are adaptations of his work and belong to other genres, not horror, such as The Shawshank Redemption and Stand By Me. But above all, Stanley Kubrick’s movie version of The Shining stands out. This movie is just brilliant in its set and production design, and it gives a very creepy twist to the usual haunted house story. The Shining is full of unforgettable scenes, and Jack Nicholson’s acting is very well-known. There are not very many sudden frightening moments in this movie, but what there is gives one a very intense scare. Where it truly excels, however, is the manner in which it slowly but surely builds into making one feel that the main protagonist, Jack Torrance, is going insane. Due to all this, The Shining rightly is considered one of the best horror movies ever made and came in third place in our 10 scariest movies ever.
James Wan is one of the well-known modern-day horror film directors. He is responsible for having directed various movies, including but not limited to Saw, Dead Silence, and Insidious. One of his most popular films was inspired by the true story of Ed and Lorraine Warren, famous investigators of everything paranormal and unseen. The Warrens were most famous for their work on the strange case which spawned the Amityville Horror films, which likewise inspired The Conjuring 2. Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga appear as Ed and Lorraine Warren in the film. They make the jump scares and Oh my God. moments so credible with the suggestion of how weary and seasoned their characters already are from such events. James Wan and his actors found new ways of scaring people using some of the familiar ideas from horror movies. This fruit of their labor is a big movie series, getting big, attracting more and more fans.
Taken together, the top four movies on this list got 42% of all the votes. Following these top four were six other movies, each receiving about 3% of the vote total. That is, the six were very close in votes to one another, separated by at most 60 votes. The first of these six films is a very low-budget slasher film directed and co-written by Tobe Hooper, very loosely based on the crimes of Ed Gein. This gives The Texas Chainsaw Massacre a dirty and rough look that makes it seem very real, adding to its scariness. Some would say, “This could really happen!” The threatening, giant Leatherface, portrayed by Gunnar Hansen, also made way for other horror icons such as Michael Myers and Jason Voorhees. Several have attempted to remaking the story of Texas Chainsaw; yet none completely equaled the original in terms of sheer, crazy fear with the use of power tools. and that is why The Texas Chainsaw Massacre took the fifth spot on The 10 Scariest Movies Ever.
The movie that occupies the sixth place in our list is the one that introduced the world to Jamie Lee Curtis, who later became a famous scream queen, and it also made John Carpenter a well-known director. This movie, Halloween, is often referred to as one of the first examples of the slasher type of horror films that we know today. Even though it does not contain the very realistic blood and gore most people are used to for this kind of movies, it is still very tense and contains some clever scary moments within its simple setting. The influence of the movie is immense and well-respected. The mask worn by Michael Myers has become iconic, and the huge unstoppable killer and the “final girl” are both tropes integral to horror. There’s a reason the Halloween series remains popular and continues to be made well over 40 years later.
It is seldom easy to take something that is popular and works in one culture and make it equally successful in another culture. However, Gore Verbinski did this with the movie The Ring. This movie is a remake of a thriller by Japanese director Hideo Nakata, about a videotape carrying a curse. The scenes that were particularly iconic and eerie, such as the spirit of a young girl in a white dress with long black hair covering her face, remained in Verbinski’s remake. Such scenes were truly terrifying to viewers regardless of their geographical location. Although not received with critical view as great as the Japanese original, the film did feature a powerful performance from Naomi Watts, who was gaining popularity at the time. For many viewers, The Ring was an introduction to East Asian horror and thus is a very important film in terms of popularizing this style of cinema with a wider audience. and that puts the ring on seventh place in out 10 Scariest Movie Ever list
James Wan is a name that will pop up earlier in this list as well, but before he got together with Patrick Wilson to create The Conjuring, both of them are working on another project called Insidious. This supernatural thriller narrates the story of a young lad who falls into a deep sleep – also known as a coma – and starts communicating with an evil entity. While the basic story wasn’t altogether new or groundbreaking, Leigh Whannell, a frequent collaborator of Wan, added an interesting background and mythology to it. This made the movie popular enough to lead to four more films in the series. James Wan said that Insidious was supposed to be a shift from the highly violent nature of Saw because he wanted to do something that dealt more with spiritual fear. The result was a profoundly effective horror film that includes what many people believe to be one of the best jump scares ever shown on the screen.
we have reached the movie that was said to be scariest according to said study. Before Scott Derrickson joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe in 2016 with the movie Doctor Strange, he had directed several horror movies, and some of these gained quite an underground popularity. One of these movies is a haunted house and possession story about a true crime writer. The character played by Ethan Hawke transfers his wife and children to the same house where a family got murdered. Soon he finds out their new home may already have a very evil presence living within. The movie was scripted by C. Robert Cargill, who was inspired by a nightmare he had after watching The Ring. The story has a small similarity with The Ring due to its eerie focus on a mysterious and frightening film. However, for many people who watched it, the surprising plot twists and spooky scenes were much more important than any reused horror ideas that might have been in the movie. There is also at least one report.
The fear of clowns is real for most people, regardless of how common that subject has been made to become almost insincere. If that were not enough to substantiate the point that people do actually fear clowns, just look at the box office haul for the 2017 release of IT. The movie is based on a book of the same name by Stephen King, which beat The Exorcist’s 44-year record for being the highest earning horror movie of all time. IT also placed 10th in this list. Helmed by Andy Muschietti, the big budget rendition of this story relies a lot on feelings of nostalgia to tell a story about children deeply affected by the traumas of their childhood. Bill Skarsgard’s performance as Pennywise, the shape-shifting evil clown, was wonderfully weird and creepy. Meanwhile, the film is replete with surprise scares, great set pieces, and brilliant CGI for a goofy-grisly horror dream of a movie that’s equal parts fun and terrifying.
