Poll: A movie or game that has genuinly scared you...

[Ramare]

Well, I'm a courageous person.
There's always parts in a game that make you jump, but seeing as I played Doom 3 when I was 11 and only jumped when Imps jumped through doors at me.(And ironically, I jumped startled in real life, and jumped literally in-game, ironically getting the *Jump* on the Imp(I jumped over him XD))
After that, I actually PREDICTED when, what, and where things happened.
Somewhat boring.
There are only two games that actually keep me on edge nowadays.
Going into the Deathclaw Sanctuary in Fallout 3 armed with only a .357, scoped .44 (Almost broken and with only 13 shots), and a combat knife, I was pretty uneasy, in fact, I snuck in, took a bobble head, book, and ran like hell.(Hey at least I had a mod that changed the .32 to .357 and increased the damage of said .357(.32), otherwise I wouldn't have even gone in.)
And Bioshock was atmospheric, actually kept me uneasy 'till I got the shotgun.
Hooray for electric buck.

Friday the thirteenth part IV.

It's not exactly a good idea to watch it when you are like nine or eight. It just isn't.

Easily the movie that scared me the most was Misery. It did what I say is the most important thing in a horror movie, it plays tricks with your minds constantly lures you into a sence of safety and then slowly unravels it and keeps you on the edge of your seat from not knowing if the person who is nursing you back to health is trying to save you or doing so for their own twisted reasons, and even then it hard to not only be terrified by said psychopath but almost sympathetic twords them. And it does this so well that it doesn't need any sort of jump out scares or gory speacial effects(something current "horror" movie need to remember). I have never been more scared by a movie than I have been by that one(from the scene after Buster is killed to the end of the movie is one of the most terrifying things I've ever seen).

The SNES version of Clock Tower.

The Exorcist, definitely.

Not to much any more since most games now lack the intense moments but back in the day Resident Evil 1 and 2 when I was younger scared the shit out of me.

It kinda sucks now games to try to scare you its all action packed with mass gore nothing to really scare ya.

I'm a big scaredy cat (err... fusky ^^; ) most of the time. F.E.A.R. startled me alot and creeped me out at certain points. but believe it or not the original amnityville horror movie scared the bejeebus outta me. As did The Thing. I'm already scared enough of clowns without seeing It so yeah...

Also, Cujo the book was pretty scary in a real world sense. (I refuse to see the movie ^^; )

Pretty much every single film/television programme/game with significant amounts of horror.

I thought that was cute D:
The thing that kept me from finishing was victim 7&8.

The first film that ever made me lose sleep was *ahem* [small]Gremlins[/small]. I must have been about 6.
Nightmare On Elm Street came close. But as I've got older, I've become harder to freak out... *flexes*

DooM 3. People tend to focus primarily on the monster closets and dismiss it as being full of nothing more than cheap scares, but a slow playthrough will reveal a wonderfully frightening atmosphere that would make the game scary in its own right, with or without monsters trying to claw your 'nads off.

Seriously, play it with the lights off, and the volume on high. The ambient sounds in particular are beautifully creepy. I daresay that with a little creative modding removing the demons and pitting you against the collapsing base itself, the game could be an environment-style survival-horror game, much like Disaster Report (only scary).

The japanese version of the ring. I craped myself and didnt want to sleep for weeks. Never again

Silent Hill 3... Pitch black, the walls are covered in burning blood vines, hospital beds covered with sheets in one corner and fleshy creatures jumping at you. If that's not a nightmare then I don't know what is.

Silent Hill 3 had me on edge most of the way through, and at certain moments, it scared the piss out of me.
