I was freaked out while watching it, and then the feeling disappeared almost instantly as soon as the credits rolled.
I was freaked out while watching it, and then I was even more freaked out being in a dark, quiet house.
Dawn: I feel safe with you. Spike: Take that back!

It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

My computer's sluggish and I don't have the patience to page through the whole list. Would someone please tell me what was #1?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Though really, my favorite Ring story is from a con, when we watched a very creepy Ring vid, and then half the room decided they had to show it to someone else within seven days. And then people started wondering if pets counted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Audition.

Punishingly Intricate
Blair Witch scared the bejesus out of me. I loved it.
It also scared my bejesus and I HATED it. See also The Ring. I couldn't sleep for days after seeing it.
I don't really like horror movies like that where the protagonists can't really fight whatever the source of the horror is.

Ringu gave me nightmares, which is very rarified air for a horror movie to be in after three decades of watching just about everything in the genre that hits regular theaters.
I haven't seen Audition though. While I may be pretty hardcore about scary movies, I know my limits and something tells me a movie that freaked Rob Zombie out is going to be beyond them.
The only thing horrifying about Alien 3 was how far the quality dropped off from the first two movies.

I went to Netflix and looked at Event Horizon & Audition but neither intrigued me enough to add to the queue.
Right now I'm watching We Jam Econo: The Story of the Minutemen and it's pretty awesome.

This is exactly what DH said about the movie.
