What is the all-time scariest movie moment?

You told us…

"The outdoor chase scene in The Shining, everything creeps me out: the snow, the maze, the night, the music...oh yeah, and the psycho with the axe!"
—Jake O’Donnell, Hamilton, ON

"The movie The Exorcist, when Linda Blair’s head does that complete 360 spin. It just gets into your head and stays there. That movie scares me as much today as it did when I first watched it 30 years ago."
—Liz Deli, Langton, ON

"It would have to be the ending of the movie Carrie, when Sissy Spacek is standing in front of her house and her mother’s hand comes up from the ground and grabs her. I jumped off the couch!"
—Phil Capobianco, Hamilton, ON

"I think I died a small death of fear when the Sloth victim sprang back to life in Se7en. That moment was, without a doubt, the loudest I have ever screamed while watching a movie."
—Genevieve Miller, Richmond, B.C.

"For me, it’s the scene in The Grudge when the cop is looking at the security footage. The ghost creeps slowly
up to the camera till all you can see is her eyes. I almost covered my eyes. Almost!"
—Chantal Larochelle, Sudbury, ON
