In light of the non-holiday!

Halloween is around the corner and though I don't recognize it as any kind of a holiday I do enjoy catching a scary movie on AMC from time to time... When I lived with my roommates Caleb and Clay a scary movie in October was a must... But I differ from most when I think of what is scary and what is not... I like reality, the fact that a movie is plausible or at the very least is set up so you think it is happening makes the effect more chilling than a slasher that can never die. Also I hate movies that "jump the shark" which is going too far to scare you that it actually does the opposite... For example with the movie Creepshow, I liked the short story of the box that is found in the basement of the university, it's eerie, creepy and makes you wonder what is in there. However when they show they beast it made me completely shut down and I was just disappointed. I've compiled a list of my personal opinion some of the world's scariest movies/shows whatever. Since this is my opinion of course you can disagree, I would like to know what others you felt got nixed or ones you disagree with...

1.)The Exorcist
Scary, freaking and something that does actually happen

2.) The Shining
"All work and no play," the hotel is creepy and the back story is crazy! I've heard the book is better but the movie is dang good...

3.) The Wicker Man (1970s)
Nick Cage's version is crap, but the independent original from the 70s had all the things necessary to blow your mind... the final scene is one of the creepiest I've ever watched...

4.) The Midnight Sun (Twilight Zone)
This episode is among the best, and the ending gives leaves you feeling empty, a sign of a great film, the fact that they can do this in less than 30 minutes makes it more impressive

5.) The Mist
Before you judge this one, you got to understand where I come from. This movie was set up to make you feel like this was happening and if the creatures weren't enough, you have the people turning into creatures themselves as the fear engulfs them... This movie, in my opinion, was absolutely great and proved that Stephen King is still a master of horror...

Now i know i have left some good movies off but these are 5 movies that blew my mind and royally scared me... Enjoy!
