Welcome to a very special Halloween edition of the Sunday Question. The place where you get to rant, rave, rebuke, rebut, or any other argumentative 'r' word you can think of whenever I come up with a good question.
This Week's Prompt: It's Halloween. All of your friends are at your house for 2 hours tonight to watch a scary movie. You want one that is going to destroy their sense, and scare them to hell. WHAT Is Your Go to Movie?
Considerations: First and foremost you want a movie they haven't seen, so obscurity in choice is a solid pick. Secondly you want a movie that's not also going to scare the *@#$ out of you (would kind of ruin the moment). Thirdly it needs to be a movie that will be worthy of mention as a film buff. We could all go House of Wax for the sheer terror of Paris Hilton's placid acting, but I'm talking proper scary. Trapped in a hole, chased by a monster, whatever. Make your case!

Who says women over the age of 80 or even 90 are past their prime? Just ask
June Squibb who at the age of 94 stars in her first leading role, in an
action ...

That's easy: Psycho. It's not too scary, but it's scary enough to mess a few people up.
BTW, nice tweaking of the photo.
If I'm goinjg for shock, Cannibal Holocaust. Genuinely scary slasher, Suspiria.
I feel like Event Horizon's always good for freaking the crap out of someone but from experience, I find the old standby the original Halloween works just fine. That Michael Meyers is one creepy mother.
A film that is going to scare but that no one has seen - Them ("Ils"). Great little European horror that taps into contemporary fears plaguing society today and remains unfairly ignored. Here's my review of the film - http://www.top10films.co.uk/archives/3995
