The Innocents: This 1961 movie is based on the Henry James’ novella Turn of the Screw. Ghosts real or imaginary, you decide, make this movie quite the scare-fest. Although there are no big special effects nor high definition shots, this movie is pretty scary.
The Wicker Man: The original Wicker Man and not the Nicholas Cage remake is definitely a lot creepier. It’s filled with atmospheric nuances that keep you wondering. In the movie a British police officer heads out to a remote island which plays home to an odd cultish group of inhabitants. Although this horror movie isn’t packed with once a minute thrills it is well worth the watch.
Rosemary’s Baby: This Roman Polanski movie is seriously creepy.

Eraserhead: David Lynch is known for his odd and surreal works and this one is definitely one of the odder ones from his oeuvre. Eraserhead uses a lot of weird imagery to unsettle you. Eraserhead’s misshapen son will definitely make your hairs stand on end.
Amityville Horror: A young family movies into their first home. The home happens to be haunted. Bad things ensue. A ghost screams at a priest to get out and there are glowing red eyes in the walls. It’s based on a true story too.
