Bar none, the scariest movie ever

Rating: 10/10 (25 July 2004)

No movie has ever disturbed me quite like this one. When I say disturbed I don't mean upsetting, but more like, once you see it you will be haunted by it for years to come. No horror movie has come close as far as acting, suspense, direction, and genuine terror partly because most don't take themselves seriously like this one did. This movie was made over 30 years ago and still has the same shock value that it did then ( without hardly any gore ). Even if you're not a fan of demonic possession flicks (although this is the one that started it all) you have to at least appreciate the psychological tension and general uneasiness this film gives off, long after you've seen it. Even the score (Tubular Bells, I think) is haunting. You will not disappointed.
