The Exorcism of Emily Rose was PG-13 and I liked that a bunch. Was just as much horror as the original Exorcist was.
1408 was PG-13.
The original Poltergeist was PG.
//Willard was also PG-13, that's a surprisingly great one.
///The problem is not the movie though. It's the fact that we have this enormous society with thousands of years of quite visible culture to draw upon with a rich history of highs and lows; what we are most worried about is not the preservation of such a transmissive dynamic nor the undertaking of something real, something graphic, but the fact that our children may see too much of the world - our world - all at once. On one hand, who wouldn't be truly afraid? But on the other, just what are we so ashamed about? Etc.
////The Others was also PG-13.
1408 was OK. nothing spectacular. but almost all of SK's stories to films have been sub par (Misery and Secret Window were prolly the best).
I liked The Others. but i wouldn't call it a horror movie. more like just suspense/thriller.

Regarding Stephen King: I heard the movie right for the Dark Tower series were sold to J.J. Abrams and the Lost-guys. I don't really like the books that much, but I feel you could make a good movie out of them. I'll hope for the best and expect the worst...

if its made for TV, you might as well just kill yourself now.
As a kid I watched pretty much every horror/splatter movie that came along & read all the trade magazines. Nightmare on Elm St 1 & 2 were my favs. Creepshow 1 & 2 were pretty decent too I remember. Last movie that scared me (and I know many won't agree) was Blair Witch. I saw it right when it came out when all the hype was at its peak, and I couldn't walk into the woods at night for at least a year. As for just plain creepy, David Lynch takes the cake. Inland Empire, Lost Highway, Mulholland Drive, and many eps of Twin Peaks have an atmosphere that just haunted me long after watching.
