Oooh, I just remembered! The last scene in Nomads.
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
Another great one that just leapt to mind: The Night Of The Hunter.

Lots of people have mentioned my biggest scare moments, but the one moment that freaked my shit out more than any other came from watching Carpenter's The Thing at the age of maybe twelve or so, late one night on cable.
It was scary and all, with many shit-freaking moments, but the worst was at the end, when Kurt Russel and Keith David decide to just sit among the dying embers of the destroyed arctic station and drink whisky while waiting to see if either of them turned into the thing.
It was the first
WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE GOOD GUY DOESN'T LIVE????????
moment for me. Fucked me up for days life.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Something that freaked me as a kid, in the '70s remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers at the very end, when one of the two survivors runs into the other survivor, and discovers that the other survivor has become a pod person.
Oh, and there was a bulldog with the head of a human.

I'm trying to think of my favorite horror films. I liked Ravenous, but I don't think it's a horror movie (although it's filed with horror on the shelf).
RAVENOUS is way too funny to be considered a straightforward horror movie, but I do love it.
Oh, and there was a bulldog with the head of a human.
Oh man, even when you know it's coming it's freaky.
It was scary and all, with many shit-freaking moments
Heh, one of the few times they let you off the hook in that movie is the end of the (deeply fucked up)
defribulator scene and "You've gotta be fucking kidding me!"
Actually, that one's got a few good tension break lines:
"I don't know what's down here but it's pissed off and weird!" and "Yeah, well FUCK YOU, TOO!"

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
In somewhat less scary news, Where the Wild Things Are and The Life of Pi have both been greenlighted: [link]

Thrive to spite them
The Cell wasn't a good movie, but it creeped me out.
I liked The Others, the ending was slightly marred for me by the woman sitting next to me who said very loudly "I don't get it!" right after the big reveal but while the characters were still reacting to the reveal.
Someone made a really good vid to The Others, I don't remember the vidder but the song is called Forget Me Not.
