Even today....
My fears still come out when I see that classic scene where Linda Blair’s head spins around. 😵 Nothing has scared me so much since then. |

I thought that was sad, not scary! Bawled my eyes out at the end |

| I think The Omen (1976). That the beautiful boy with the creamy white skin, and beautiful blue eyes was "The Beast" was terrifying...add the dark characters, the exceedingly beautiful good characters (Lee Remick, Gregory Peck) and the operatic sadistic music and well....the overall tone was deeply frightening. A classic. |
