What Makes A Movie Scary?-- Part 3: Freddie and That Giant Skull

**  Means I've seen it.

**  A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET  (1984)--  The movie that gave us blade-fingered Freddie Kreuger.  Don't go to sleep or he'll get you.  Freddie's kind of a funny guy at times.

**  THE OMEN  (1976)--  Hey, Damien is the demon child.

**  POLTERGEIST  (1982)--  That spooky old tree scared me, but not as bad as that huge skull coming out of the closet.  I almost had to leave the theater when that happened.  Man, that was scary.

**  PSYCHO  (1960)--  Alfred Hitchcock's mama's boy goes awry.  You can check in, but I don't know about checking out.

**  ROSEMARY'S BABY  (1968)--  It's a slow-builder, but creepier the whole time.
