What scared you the most the last time you watched a horror movie? We'd bet money on the menacing demeanor of famous villains like Freddy Kreuger, Jason Vorhees, and Michael Myers. It may surprise you to see, however, that the faces behind these ghastly ghouls are just ordinary people that bear little or no resemblance to the sheer terror their characters embody.
See each remarkable transformation below, and vote for the stares that spooked you to the bone.

Valak - Bonnie Aarons (The Conjuring 2, 2016)
Pennywise - Tim Curry (It, 1990)
I read the books when I was quite young. I was only 14 whe it came out and it was all the rage, had to read it. Since then, I have had deep seated fear towards clowns of any kind. They creep me out. And I only had my imagination back then... no internet to show you pictures like that one above. Although, surprisingly, my imagined Pennywise was very similar to the one later portrayed in the film by the magnificent Tim Curry.
Strangely enough Tim Curry was actually a sufferer.

We horror fans need a good horror film. The last genuinely scary one for me was insidious. horror films are more than just jump scares!
Try Asian ones, if you haven't already. Now, I'm not sure about the newest east Asian horror films, but, as you may know, their tradition of ghost films that creep under your skin is pretty famous. Leaving you with a mixture of fright and sadness, because in the end... All these are sad stories that make you sympathise with the ghost.

Great article. I'd add Javier Botet, the title character in "Mama." He was also in Conjuring 2 and others. Wonderful creature performer. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2306701/
Lyrics :) I've been watching you For some time Can't stop staring at those oceans eyes Burning cities and napalm skies Fifteen flares inside those ocean eyes Your ocean eyes No fair You really know how to make me cry When you gimme those ocean eyes I'm scared I've never fallen from quite this high Falling into those ocean eyes Your ocean eyes I've been walking through a world gone blind Can't stop thinking of your diamond mind Careful creature made friends with time He left her lonely with a diamond mind And those ocean eyes No fair You really know how to make me cry When you gimme those ocean eyes I'm scared I've never fallen from quite this high Falling into those ocean eyes Your ocean eyes
Do a little more research if you're going to post an article. Ari Lehman only played Jason as a child. He most certainly did not play Jason in part seven which is the picture on the left.
The valak one still looks the same even with the makeup and why didn't they include the sinister guy? He was very scay
I would kill them all if i see for ruining my mind :D especially Tim Curry :(
I loved the Woman In Black with Daniel Radcliffe...Beautiful & scary AF!
You should probably replace the Jason Voorhees picture next to Ari Lehman since he only played Jason as a child in the first movie.
Same! Great article. Last movie that truly scared the H out of me was the first Conjouring. Before that, The Ring. I love horror movies, but there's only a few that truly scared me. Still I love the suspense and jumping out of my seat fun that comes with most of them. Happy screams!!
Nice list! Although i really miss Javier Botet from Mama and [Rec]
I love how makeup and costumes change people's looks for the movies!
