Last film that made you jump

The Forgotten ...

Spoiler:

...that friggin car crash came outta nowhere ... totally caught me off guard, damnit!

List yours and feel free to use spoiler tags if you think it's necessary.

Wait Until Dark. Anyone that has seen it will know the scene. Man did I jump!

Before that, it was The Butterfly Effect moment where

Spoiler:

mother Andrea Treborn walks past an opening to her kitchen to catch her young son Evan standing still with a butcher knife in his hand

. Not a huge jump scene, but still a nice creepy jolt that works so well since

Spoiler:

later on in the film, we learn that Evan holding the butcher knife was actually for much less sinister reasons than we were initially led to believe.

Not only did I jump, but One Missed Call actually made me yell out loud. It may have been the DTS though, but still...

Exorcist III.

Spoiler:

The scene where the nurse is doing her rounds and the possesed patient suddenly comes up from behind with the shears!

?

The Grudge made me jump in a few spots. Shut up.

I don't remember any specific one, but I'm sure 28 Days Later had a few jump scenes.

The Others had at least one real effective jump scene I remember, but that was a ways back I suppose.

The Grudge made me move, not really jump, but move once or twice. Still wasn't impressed with it overall.

That scene in The Forgeton that HB mentioned made me jump like a motherfucker. Pretty decent movie.

Not that it made me jump at all, but the best newer movie I've seen recently was Baadasssss!, that was just cool. Way better energy and pace than I imagined.

I'm with Hellbilly on this one. The Forgotten caught me with my defenses down.

The Chaostar · 02-15-2005, 09:36 PM

THAT scene in the Forgotten. One of the best scenes I saw this year. Btw, the movie wasn;t all that bad. Kinda of an existencial X-Files episode. Julian Moore is once again great anyway.

The Grudge made me jump a couple of times also.
TCM's remake wasn't all that frightenining but it was creepy - unexpectadly so!

The Grudge made me jump a few times too, though overall I couldn't get into it.

Watched Anchor Bay's Madman dvd yesterday for the first time, there were a couple of jump worthy moments in there for sure. Good film too-very atmospheric, despite the crappy music.

Actually my latest "jump"-moment too.

Such a great movie all around.
