name me one movie scarier than THE RING (just saw the conjuring)

[darknessmanX]

saw the conjuring last night. there seems to be two camps of people with this film; those who thought it was awesomely scary and maybe "the GOAT horror movie" (to quote a miscer), and those who thought it was lame and totally unscary.

i'm somewhere in the middle. it definitely wasn't a waste of money and i actually enjoyed the film's deliberate pacing. the plot was a little vague, and the characters were underdeveloped. who's the protagonist again? not really sure there was one. the movie ended pretty anticlimactically. after the final demonic death scene, i was thinking "that's it...?" it seemed all too easy. there was no plot twist or tragedy; the flick ended all too happily.

there's been a lot of discussion about how scary this film is or isn't. for anyone who found it SO scary (as a lot of people claim), i really have to wonder; have you ever seen the ring? because the ring honestly makes the conjuring seem like a friendly walk through the park in comparison.

the ring traumatized me. i was only in the 8th grade when i saw it, so maybe i was more sensitive, but i've never even come close to being as scared by a movie as i was by the ring. i slept with the lights on for 3 months after that movie. to this day, a TV stuck on snow in the dark still sort of makes my skin crawl.

can someone please tell me one movie scarier than THE RING? don't come in here and tell me "LoL wtf the ring waznt scary boy you weak!!!!" without actually naming a scarier film.

bear in mind i am a horror movie fanatic who has seen and owns TONS of horror flicks, from every sub-genre. slasher, gore/splatter, thriller, possession, classic horror... i have seen tons of horrors and nothing touched me like the ring. please name me a scarier movie so i can hunt it down, watch it, and give you my opinion. there's been so many movies people claim are scarier than the ring that aren't even close.

sparks;
-the conjuring was okay, but not truly frightening
-tc is convinced the ring is the scariest movie he's seen
-requests other scary movies for comparison

gtfo with your peasant horror movies. Here's a movie that's still unmatched: The Thing (1982), but wait, you don't wanna watch because it's old, right.

i own it and first saw it 15 years ago. pretty good movie (nice gore) but it didn't at all scare me like the ring.

let me get this straight. you're me telling me the original The Thing scared you more than THE RING, correct?

i just don't get that. the thing was cool but didn't give me trouble sleeping, or anything like that.

In fifth grade a friend saw the ring and told me about it with details. Seriously scared me.

Brb something about a girl crawling up a well
Brb other things also
Brb a girl crawling out of a well


I was scurred

(Havent seen it to this day)

[GlassMoon]

ring wasnt scary brah

[darknessmanX]

ring wasnt scary brah

and what movie was?

so far i have been told The Thing which just doesn't cut it, good horror movie but not freaky.

can anyone compare Insidious to THE RING (scariest movie ever) for me in terms of how scary they are? the person i saw the conjuring with recommended insidious as a scarier movie, haven't seen it but it looks promising

look at how few candidates there are to compete with the true freakiest movie ever THE RING (it's better than RINGU too)

[DK91]

The ring was pretty damn scary

[Hjunbaek]

The Ring terrified me too when I watched in when I was younger, but I feel like The Conjuring would have freaked me out even more if I'd have watched it at the same age.

really!? no way man. the conjuring just isn't as paranormal or twisted as the ring. the ring was sooooo ****ing weird to me, whereas the conjuring is more like cookie-cutter type stuff that i've seen before.

i was a lot more freaked out by that few minute video tape in the ring than i was by the conjuring in whole

after the conjuring i slept in pitch black easily, that says it all

[LGeX]

Saw The Ring when I was young as fuk too and counted down the days until I died after watching lulz.

Sixth Sense also scared the chit out of me when I was younger. Brb never getting up in the middle of the night to pee.

Literally laughed through most of The Conjuring. Didn't scare me a bit

[Tweak919]

The japanese ring is scary. The pacing in that movie is incredible.

[madmirinmerlin]

Lol wtf the ring waznt scary boy you weak!!!!!


























Srs

[HijoDeHombre]

does the OP need a spoiler tag?

pls respond

[darknessmanX]

does the OP need a spoiler tag?

pls respond

somewhat, but not really. the only thing i mention is that the ending to me wasn't horrific enough, which is pretty general. it's a minor spoiler but not worthy of a tag imo.

[darknessmanX]

Lol wtf the ring waznt scary boy you weak!!!!

Srs

you tell me "srs" yet you cannot name movies that are scarier, which is the whole point of the topic.

now name some scarier movies or gtfo with telling me the ring wasn't scary. one or the other. i'm tired of people saying "the ring wasn't scary man" and then drawing a blank when it comes to naming a scarier movie.

[Deutscher32]

I'm one of the horrors 2 bro.

Watched the conjuring 2 weeks ago. VERY average. 1 of the girls had her eyes covered most of the movie lol. I think it just depends how you look at it. You know somethings about to happen, so it doesn't scare you. Maybe I don't get involved in the movie and think it's not real?

The Ring is definitely one of the scariest movies I've seen. Another movie is the Grudge (which reminded me of the Ring)... I jumped when the chick went in the attic... other than that it's some freaky kid lol. Another movie I remember clearly is Gothika.. when she was hiding? under water and opens her eyes and she sees it.

A scary movie to this day... Blair Witch Project lol.... watching it through their camera running through the woods etc...

[MisturrBlake]

the exorcist

[Lvu5ever]

The ring doesnt scare me. But paranormal activity 1 an blair witch give me nightmares.

[MightySTAR1]

watch the japanese version of the ring. also the grudge.

[DK91]

Dat scene when the girls falls out of the closet...

[doughnutking]

The Haunted, made for tv movie. Saw it when i was a teen, haven't forgotten how it rustled ma jimmy.

Also that other movie more recently where the gilfriend stands over the boyfriends bed and they are tape recording it in the room.

[darknessmanX]

The ring wasn't scary. it was creepy.

The thing was scary but when you were watching it. A legit scary movie would make you check under the bed and no movie has made me do that yet.

then you're probably not easily scared (right?), some people just don't feel horror movies. i occasionally find myself scared by them so i feel like a pretty good judge, and none of them have scared me like the ring. you can split hairs between "scary" and "creepy" (to me they're synonymous), but can't we all agree that the ring is pretty high up there for a legit scary film. unless you just claim "no movie scares me" which is an unimpressive reply.

at least you named a film for comparison. nobody else can even man up and give me an answer.

i feel how you did, the conjuring wasn't too scary because it was obvious when you needed to brace yourself for a thrill. nothing caught me off guard.

i never got to see gothika, but the grudge was no match to the ring for me. after seeing the ring, i NEVER trusted a horror movie the same way. it was like being raped or something. the grudge had it's moments but the movie as a whole was weak sauce in comparison to how the ring got me.

one of the only movies that had me as scared as the ring is called Phantoms (1998), not a very popular movie but it was scary as ****. petrified the whole film, granted i was very young. but still nothing like the ring, which ****ed me in the head for months.

[cowmooolester93]

The Strangers. It is eerie, creepy, and imo best horror movie of the past 10 years.

[FOCKURDOARTA]

went to watch conjuring on the weekend, didnt find it scary at all, was kind of disappointed cause everyone made it sound so good lol, even laughed at a few scenes. but mind you i actually hate horror movies, i screamed like 100 times in insidious.

the ring was fukdd up i was young when i watched it too, probably was in primary school still, took the tv out of my room for like 5 years (lol srs)

havent seen the grudge.. too scared, only interested in the jap version though

[DasWunderBrah]

The ring was pretty damn scary

this. if you watched it as a kid, chit was damn scary

[ExcuseMeMisc]

I thought the "childs play" early film serioues was pretty scary back in the day...































But what do I know, i know someone who cried at the end of transformers 3...

[Bensfitness101]

Bum cheeks getting moist, I'm outta here.

[breno2342]

The problem for determining which movies are scariest is that you watch movies under different circumstances. Some you watch when alone in the dark when you're 13, others you watch in a theater with a bunch of loud people when you're 24. I saw The Conjuring in such a theater and didn't find it scary whatsoever, but I'm sure if I watched it alone in the dark at home, I'd be haunted. The Grudge (followed closely by The Ring) was probably the most scary movie experience of my life because I was 15 at the time, but watching it 9 years later, it's not scary at all.

Btw, I'm a huge asian horror fan, but I think The Grudge and The Ring are two of the only asian horror remakes that are better than the originals.

[Kavliari]

Have you seen VHS brah?

VHS2 is good as well, but more awesome than scary.

[poppycock101]

watched it in 6th grade. mentally scarred me for a couple months.srs

what didnt help was i went to a haunted house (fukin amazing one) and for part of it they made us stand in a really eerie room with a well, and out comes samara. literally got right in my face i almost fuking shat myself.

wanted to see if i still thought it was scary, so i went to blockbuster like a year ago to get it but they only had the 2nd one. thought it was pretty bad.
