A lot of the originals were better than their newer counterparts. Texas Chainsaw Massacre was by far one of the scariest movies I have ever seen but to my friends, they laughed the entire time because they couldn't understand why a man (overweight at that) dressed up in a mask could outrun a college woman in fit shape (yes, both my friends were in track and field) with a heavy chainsaw in his hand the entire time.
On that note, I have the black and white versions of The Haunting and Night of the Living Dead and boy I tell you they are scary as hell and far better than any color version. I can't say if itâs the black and white or what, but they really made me, and many friends, sleep with one eye open.
Other horror media I liked and found scary were The Howling, Hell House, black-and-white Twilight Zones (like the doll that said, "I'm going to kill you," and the little girl that fell behind her bed into an alternate universe), Resident Evil series video games and Silent Hill.
Personally however, because of the way I view our cosmetology, the stars, the possibility of other dimensions, death and life, demons and angels, I was most frightened of the movie Event Horizon after having seen it. I'll just leave it at that because most people thought it was pure cheese from beginning to end, but I loved every terrifying (for me at least) moment of it.
