Woman in black

Oh. My. God.

This is without a doubt the scariest movie I have ever seen. Now, to be fair, I am not exactly a horror movie aficionado, but this movie is scary as hell. I don't want to give to much away, but it is your pretty basic ghost/haunted house story.

What makes this movie so scary is what makes it so good. There isn't a hole lot of gore, but jump scenes abound. A favorite tactic of the director is to zoom in on a character's face off to the side of the screen, and have the ghost show up dimly down the hallway. Major freak factor.

I don't recommend this to people who like jump scares, but if you can handle it, it is a movie worth watching.

It is quite a bit different from the original book ( which is also super awesome and super scary) but both of them are worth the sleepless nights.
