What scared you the most the last time you watched a horror movie? We'd bet money on the menacing demeanor of famous villains like Freddy Kreuger, Jason Vorhees, and Michael Myers. It may surprise you to see, however, that the faces behind these ghastly ghouls are just ordinary people that bear little or no resemblance to the sheer terror their characters embody.
See each remarkable transformation below, and vote for the stares that spooked you to the bone.

We horror fans need a good horror film. The last genuinely scary one for me was insidious. horror films are more than just jump scares!

Try Asian ones, if you haven't already. Now, I'm not sure about the newest east Asian horror films, but, as you may know, their tradition of ghost films that creep under your skin is pretty famous. Leaving you with a mixture of fright and sadness, because in the end... All these are sad stories that make you sympathise with the ghost.

Great article. I'd add Javier Botet, the title character in "Mama." He was also in Conjuring 2 and others. Wonderful creature performer. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2306701/
