Prepare to Scream: The Scariest Movies of All Time

The Vanishing

Taken scared everyone about the dangers of abduction, but Dutch filmmaker George Sluizer’s The Vanishing will put all other Taken movies to shame. Similar to the plot of the famous Liam Neeson series, The Vanishing follows a man who discovered that his girlfriend went missing from a bus stop. He would do anything to get her back, and we mean anything. 

The Thing

Directed by John Carpenter, this science fiction flick is sure to scare you away from any artic encounters. When a team of scientists finds a “thing” that can shape-shift into the victim's bodies, anyone could be the monster at any time. Believe it or not, for a movie that was made in 1984, this one hits just as hard as the topical modern films that are coming out now.
