The Conjuring
The Conjuring racking up
phenomenal reviews around the world, we decided to ask you, dear reader, which
English horror film scared you the most and the results are gratifyingly
diverse.
Your list contains everything from classics to current scares,
from gore to genre-defying greatness.
Here, then, in descending order, are your ten scariest films of
all time:
exorcist
William Friedkin’s 1973 classic is perhaps the most
popular film about possession and exorcism in all of cinema, and the film —
starring a young Ellen Burstyn as the possessed and Max von Sydow as the
exorcist — remains chilling.
The Ring
The Ring, based on
Japanese horror film Ringu, created a worldwide
scare in 2002. The film was about a cursed videotape that would cause the
viewer to die in seven days.
The American remake, by Gore Verbinski, was effective enough but
purists swear on the original Ringu.
Evil Dead
Sam Raimi’s Evil Dead had a group of youngsters holidaying
in a cabin and finding an audiotape that leads to demons and gore.
Wildly original, often funny and devastatingly gory, this
low-budget cult classic changed and revitalised the horror genre when it
released back in 1981
