I agree.
I think I've already mentioned Mulholland Drive, but David Lynch movies always have such a weird, nightmarish quality. Inland Empire and Lost Highway are another couple of his that are like a relentless fever dream.

If anyone is looking for a creepy film to watch 'The Skelton Key' is now on Netflix. Kate Hudson and Peter Sarsgaard. Worth a watch IMO.
Threads.
Still chills me to the core.
Didn't watch it as a kid because I was already terrified of nuclear war (early 1980s).
Because it was filmed in the North (Sheffield- I'm from Leeds) and used many of the community as 'extras', it seemed so naturalistic and believable, which, for me, means that no horror film, etc. has ever come quite as close (for fear reaction).
Ghostwatch was a lark, too, but I suspected it was a 'hoax' quite early on.

I watched La Cabina. Thought it was really good. Reminded me similar to Tales of the Unexpected. I can see why it would have been scary more as a kid. I enjoyed the simple but bizarre premise.
I had never seen it and watched the link posted. I also thought it had a 'Tales of The Unexpected' vibe.
Oh my christ Is never heard of threads but just googled it and watched a trailer! That looks horrendous
I had never seen it but watched it recently... ended up falling asleep to it... not a good idea. It is really realistic, I wonder if something similar would be made today? like Ghostwatch I couldn't imagine either, there would have to be a million warnings about it for people's sensitivities I imagineOh my christ Is never heard of threads but just googled it and watched a trailer!

One of the creepiest films I’ve seen is The Others with Nicole Kidman. Genuinely think it’s one of the best psychological horror films I’ve ever seen. Doesn’t seem to get spoken about much but I love it, it’s so atmospheric.
The novel is well worth a read.
The Strangers scared me, mainly because of the fact the murderers had no motive - they were just hunting people because they happened to be in.
Saw 7 had me checking the back of my car for some weeks - this was not something I’d chosen to watch and I hadn’t seen the previous ones.
Oh and one that I found particularly scary and disturbing is a Japanese film with torture scenes called ‘Imprint’. That one is f*ed up!

Funny Games is similar.
i couldn't finish this i found it so disturbing, apparently the original which i think is russian is even worse
I think the original was German. I've only seen the American one.
Great movie with superb twists
One of mine is an episode of Taggart, I was about 8 when I saw it, the murderer was played by Dougray Scott and he was murdering people by putting snakes and spiders in their beds or shopping. I remember as a child one scene showing a woman trying to talk and blood coming out of her mouth and eyes really freaked me out, and my parents had to check my bed every night for months before I'd go to sleep.
The Haunting of Hill House really spooked me out. There was no way I could watch that on my own at night. I really wanted to watch it though but could never find the right opportunity. However, I ended up on a psychiatric unit and was placed on 2 to 1 observations so I thought, if any chance, here's my chance to watch that show as I'm never gonna be alone 
I watched the entire series and wow, good job I watched it while I was on observation because it was super creepy and had lots of jump scares. Thank you staff for keeping me safe from ghosties in the dark

Late to the party answering your comment, but I loved Dead End! I’d forgotten all about it. Brilliant film.
Also another vote for Ghostwatch from me. I was 5 at the time and have been nervy of the dark ever since I watched it that night.
Eden Lake is pretty good too. It being British makes it a bit more real for me.
The Entity scared me to death when I saw about ten mins of it once. I was quite young though and had snuck downstairs to get a drink.
Sinister - those videotapes are creepy as hell.
Martyrs - was very disturbing and I’d never watch it again or recommend to anyone who is easily affected by things. It bothered me for ages.
The Human Centipede -
I’ve never seen it but I remember reading the synopsis of A Serbian Film on Wikipedia and just reading that really bothered me. I could never watch it. I struggle to even comprehend how someone could come up with the idea of it.
I came across this one night while flicking channels. It had just started so had no idea what it was about. I couldn't believe what I was watching....and couldn't even turn it off I was so dumbfounded. The actors must have been really desperate for cash to even consider filming it!The Human Centipede -

Is that The Human Centipede or A Serbian Film you were watching, as your quote mentions both.
