why is this considered the scariest movie of all time? it's not even top 5
>>
>>86203772
Then name your top 5
>>
>>86203772

Critics tend to not like movies that are actually scary...They only praise horror films like this or self-aware ironic ones
>>
>>86203772
what are the top 5 then?
>>
it was a different time
>>
>>86203772
watch a shitty copy recorded for the nth time on a VHS film alone at night and tell me that again
>>
>>86203772
You have to watch scary movies as a kid to really appreciate them. Also it was ahead of its time generally. People actually thought the film itself was haunted or possessed when it came out
>>
Have you seen the movie?

but can you metaphysically watch this movie? or even psychically?
>>
>>86203772
Made during a time when critics were still largely Christian, and not liberal atheist dykes.

Also, the tone was much more horrific than today's internet standard. This young girl masturbating with a crucifix till she bleed was feint inducing. Plus the language

It's fucking disgusting how every living person lists this as the scariest movie of all time. Especially on r/horror.

>babadook
>top five horror
I mean it was decent flick but it wasn't horrorkino.

1.) John Carpenter's The Thing
2.) Halloween
3.) Night of the Living Dead
4.) Evil Dead (although it's more of an action-comedy at times)
5.) VHS

I never see this mentioned so here you go, better than most of your suggestions too.

>>86203772
I think the main reason this movie scared so many back in the day was because they felt is was playing around too much with the supernatural. A lot of people felt that simply watching such a movie could bring a curse on themselves, their families, and possibly even make them more susceptible to demonic possession. Those that don't understand this probably never grew up in a religious household. For some people buying this movie on VHS was almost like hanging a voodoo doll in your house.

This came out in the 70s when this shit was hardcore you could argue grindhouse movies were more gruesome but they never grossed 441,306,145 dollars
