I'm actually stuck on what to call the scariest film. I own so many of them. Cat's Eye scares me a lot, due to that scene with the ledge!
Anything with Exorcism in its name and I am gone. I also get squeamish over certain bodily injuries involving hands and the facial area. So any film that fits that criteria will trouble me. Except for the Conjuring franchise, those movies are overhyped and a huge letdown to me.
The last movie that actually spooked me was the original Spanish version of [REC]. The 3rd act is horrifying.

There's a guy who compiles charts for music and movies, and he somehow calculated all the grosses for films in the U.S. that were successful at the box office since 1922. His primary source is Variety. Studios started to do their own compiling in 1981. But anyway, I went and made a list on Fandom, of every number one horror movie to date. So, this will make a great reference for people.

List of box office number-one horror films in the United States
**Films listed before 1982 are from the weekly box office charts, and reports. The Monster (inaugural US No. 1 horror film, and peaked 18 February, 1925) The Phantom of the Opera Frankenstein King Kong Hold That Ghost Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde House of Wax The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms It Came...
My Underrated Horror film: Deep rising.
To view archived Variety pages for a year, it's $600 (but only if you're in America). It could be twice that amount elsewhere.
But anyway, you can see the whole list of top 50 grossing films, which is just about impossible to find anywhere online.
I made sure to save as many archived pages as I could, as you only get 50 searches per month.

I love action movies, like Dirty Harry, First Blood, Rocky, Police Story, and Jurassic Park. I think Home Alone is the best comedy film ever to watch at Christmas.
Tom Hanks is one of the best actors ever, so anything with him gets my vote as well. Or the master of martial arts - Bruce Lee!
While the latest trailer for Rambo: Last Blood looks cool, I fear this could end up just being like any other action film!

I like the part where the guy gets eaten on the toilet.
I love Godzilla as well. But the Japanese version.
They butchered the Alien films. I still say the original 1979 film is timeless. I love the sequel as a great, solid action film with drama. The rest are kind of average. Put it this way, they all got increasingly worse. The last one tried very hard to be like the original, and I have mixed feelings about it. Where the heck is the third part of the prequel trilogy anyway? We need at least one last movie to connect all of this to the original movies.
Legend has it that the actor John Hurt didn't tell the others about the now infamous chest tearing scene where Kane births the Xenomorph, in order to make it come across as more authentic. ??

Some singers could have made great actors too.
In fact, certain ones have been in a few movies.
But, by the way, this video is cheesy.
