The instant-classic horror movie based on the book by Stephen King. Director Stanley Kubrick brings his trademark psychological aspect to the film, but that's not all that makes it scary. The music in the beginning captures our ear drums and let's you know that something is not right with the Torrance's as they make the long drive to the hotel. Different camera techniques also build up the tension of the events unfolding. Jack Nicholson's portrayal of Jack Torrance's descendent into madness is groundbreaking and not to mention rather scary. The main reason why this film is the scariest movie on this list is because of the unexpected. There are scenes that upset our psyche and make us feel really uncomfortable. Here's a classic scene from the movie.
