LONDON (Reuters Life!) – “The Exorcist” was voted the scariest movie of all time in a Halloween poll published on Wednesday.
this is bullshit, unless the question asked contained the caveat, ‘…excluding ‘suspiria’, ‘ringu’, ‘salem’s lot’, ‘deep red’, and the original ‘the omen’.’ we’ve never seen ‘the exorcist’, natch, but we are sure that just the scary noise alone from ‘the grudge’ is more frightening – as are ‘the eyes!’ from ‘the beyond’ and michael myers’s theme song.

please add the following to films more horrifying than ‘the exorcist’:
black christmas (1974), kairo, night of the living dead (1968), don’t look now, friday the 13th part 2, tombs of the blind dead, burial ground, hellraiser, maniac, texas chainsaw massacre (1974)
