I Shudder to think that there are members of the horror community who aren't subscribed to this app.

[@a-dent]

Sorry, my friend. I was replying to Mr. Leach. Hopefully you will have access soon. England is home to some of the greatest horror films of all time. It's only fair.

[@philipmullins2028]

The exorcist 3 hospital scene is the best ever jump scare. The set up, the still camera, the time just passing by making you drop your guard, then the best payoff with the screeching sound effect and zoom in camera. Top class

[@marcoslaureano5562]

And the fakeout scare with the patient right before the ACTUAL jump scare made it even better. You think everything is cool, feel that sense of relief and then BOOM.

[@tidepride86]

That part scared me so bad it made me shit a book, on how to puke.

[@SlasherInSuits]

I hate this movie. Its only known for this jump scare. Most kills are off screen. And the priest really has one scene.

[@nicolassmith7207]

We know

[@nosidam1989]

I’ve watched that scene in exorcist 3 and it is great but I’ve never seen the full film and now that I know damher watched it with some victims to get in the mood to kill and it was part of his ritual I really don’t want to ever watch it lol is it worth skipping?

[@jcvelez915]

That bravo 100 scariest movie moments was so good to watch during Halloween back in the day. Still is

[@onetnecghoti3473]

2:26 - intruder 3:41 - the hills have eyes 4:52 - the gate 6:16 - hellraiser 7:59 - the descent 9:14 - lords of salem 10:30 - the babadook 11:54 - -black christmas 13:54 - the dark and the wicked 15:28 - exorcist 3

[@marcoslaureano5562]

Thx!

[@onetnecghoti3473]

@@marcoslaureano5562 no prob!

[@ericsilberstein667]

I loved Black Christmas because I get tired of Christmas trying to intrude with my joy of Halloween even before the 31st arrives.

[@spooky_scary_skelejens]

So glad you mentioned Black Christmas. That scene sold it!

[@DesiSJ]

I didn't know there were monsters in The Descent so when we got that jump scare...HOLY CRAP. I nearly peed myself in the theater lol

[@PeterCarmichael332]

So close to 100,000+ subscribers much deserved. Been watching for years now. Keep it up bro

[@williamsummerson1204]

The hallway scene in the exorcist 3 scared the shit out of me as a young teen.😳

[@TheIshShow1]

I knew the Exorcist 3 would be here. Nurse station scene is the best Jump Scare ever

[@erikafigueroa5128]

Thanks!

[@lonelydog97]

The Exorcist 3 is hands down one of the most underrated horror movies of all time

[@Wakkoh420]

one of the most shittiest horror movies of all time

[@namethestars]

Honestly Shudder is the only platform I'm subscribed to lol, inexpensive and I feel their foreign horror selection is *chefs kiss*. As silly as it is when I was getting into horror one of the first watches was The Blair Witch Project and that end scene gave me chills for the longest time, it really sticks to your soul. Loving the regular content lately Cody 👌🙂 And as someone who has gone caving, The Descent really HITS the claustrophobic element perfectly.

[@stevecampbell3341]

I agree with you on black Christmas. Watched it for the first time a few years ago and when it got to that scene, the hair on my arms stood up lol. Totally freaked me out. Eyes can be scary

[@MrLando0]

Yeah dude, saw The Descent in theaters and that first half freaked me out. Even more than the second half. As I've gotten older, I'm way more claustrophobic.

[@josh043p6]

Best jumpscares: Exorcist 3 Sinister - the lawnmower scene. Oh my god that scared the crap out of me. What helps is Ethan Hawke's horrified reaction. It Follows - the part where the guy comes up through the hallway. It's great because the lighting messes with you. Your eyes adjust too little too late before you finally see it. Very effective

[@skyofthelivingdead]

The Exorcist 3 jumpscare almost made me shit my pants the first time, not even joking. It’s one of the best of all time. A few of my scariest/most impactful moments: -The reveal of The Tall Man in It Follows -Chucky coming to life for the first time in Child’s Play -Helen meeting Candyman for the first time in the parking garage -The opening scene of Midsommar (tho walking into it blindly shortly after the death of my bff might have something to do with the way it deeply disturbed me) -Pearl’s monologue in Pearl -The torture scene in Audition

[@skyofthelivingdead]

Oh, and that scene in The Strangers where one of the intruders is just silently watching Liv Tyler as she hangs out and has a cigarette in the kitchen. I still get the heebs sometimes when I go out for a cig at night 😂

[@highoctaneadventure]

Exorcist 3 is fantastic. Never saw 2. George C. Scott was at his crustiest/grumpiest, Brad Dourif was amazing and the visuals were great. The dude in the wheelchair that flashes the nurse is still is one of the funniest random sequences lol

[@BrittBratt183]

You are literally the only person I've ever heard mention Bravo's 100 Scariest Movie Moments. Lol I loved this series and actually ended up downloading it from YT many, many years ago. I still watch it to this day.

[@RaphaelRemington6969]

Awesome dude. So happy to see The Dark and the Wicked mentioned. That movie made my jaw drop, particularly the scene where the dude finally leaves to go see his family.

[@chipmunk1227]

Thanks for the review Cody, I must say I'm a casual fan so I'm not sure if you review shudder alot but I would love to see what you think about " in search of darkness: journey into iconic 80's horror"

[@erikafigueroa5128]

When you've been looking for this list and then realize that there were only 2 you have not see at all. Thank you anyway. It's a great list that I just shared with a friend.

[@danielwolski873]

Cody. The Exorcist 3 hospital scene was recreated in the Exorcist tv show, season two I believe. It was very effective also.

[@melinewaller1129]

The Bravo version of this is what got me into horror when I was like 16/17. It peaked my curiosity on the genre and I’ve never turned back

[@dogface1911]

Man I'm so glad I came across this channel. I know we're all in agreement on that. I feel like I don't even have to talk about horror films anymore. I can just tell someone to watch whichever video is relevant. Lolol. Nice work!

[@michaelcoffey1991]

@Cody thank you so much this was a very fun watch. Best wishes to you and your family thank you for always sharing your fandom and saying what YOU honestly believe. Quick question any chance sometime in 2023 you could do a top 10 or top 20 of your favorite goreless horror for that small niche part of your fans for which gore is a turn off. As you seen more horror then the average 25 of us lol

[@TwisterTerror]

Great list, when I think for scariest movie scenes I think of ones chill and freal me out and gives me goosebumps, here's my list 10. The Innkeepers (ghost bride revela scene) 9. The Strangers (Stalking in the house scene) 8. The Blair Witch Project (Apology scene) 7. Paranormal Activity (The Ending scene) 6. Summer of 84 (Victims scene) 5. When A Stranger Calls (Opening scene) 4. Hereditary (Finding the father burned, creppy old man scene) 3. Pet Sematary (Zelda, twist your back scene) 2. Psycho (The twist scene) 1. Tied for 1st place The Exorcist 3 (Jumpscare scene) Black Christmas (Ending Scene) That jump scare competes with the blood test scene from The Thing and Jason coming out of the water at the end of Friday the 13th 1980 for the best jump scare of all time like you said, it SERIOUSLY caught me off guard when I first watch TE3.

[@stepitup25]

The Exorcist III is my favorite horror movie with THE best jump scare! Also, as far as jump scares go, I would put the blood testing from The Thing at #2. I actually jumped off my seat! And the end of Friday the 13th would be near the top as well.

[@Killpopkulture]

Headed to rehab because I need help like yesterday but I wanted to drop in and say thanks your content saves lives Cody. I stop thinking about hurting myself for at least 20 minutes now multiply that by a percentage of your subscribers. Say, 15% of us are not doing so well. We are Fathers and Mothers and Sons and Daughters. We have reasons to live and eyes that look upward to us for leadership. My point is we will not hurt ourselves and the ones we love today because life is a gift and we will persist. Horns up and keep it fucking heavy Cody. I'm one day at a time brother - thank you again for the noise you provide \m/ \m/

[@CodyLeachYT]

Hope you're doing better man. Glad to help in any way.

[@distinguishedflyer]

As always, some nice choices. Had forgotten about The Dark & the Wicked, but I think you've just convinced me to go watch it.

[@terrycrawford1476]

Sitting in a packed theater during that little scene from Exorcist 3, when nobody had any idea what was coming was the biggest scream I have ever witnessed. Everyone went NUTS! There was applause and cheering! We couldn't even hear the next 2 minutes of the movie because of all the chatter.

[@peterm.torres5273]

I'm sorry bro...BUT YOU GOT A BADASS OPENING THEME TO YOUR VIDEOS!!! I ALWAYS LOVE LISTENING TO IT!!!

[@mayoayo001]

You've become one of my fav Movie reviewer

[@bushidoblues9302]

I'm the same age as you so I remember watching that bravo series. I loved how it had the film makers talk about their reactions to these films and the scary moments and how they reacted to it. It was so influential for me as well. It definitely turned me on to alot of great horror films and i feel like I'm still finally watching all of them.

[@taylorpack7705]

I tell you one that always gets me Cody is the scene in dark skies when the dad looks at the video recordings and sees the aliens standing over them while they sleep. I mean just imagine seeing that.

[@keithtedder2556]

The Descent reveal definitely scared me!!!

[@keithtedder2556]

"Thank you Cody!" Keep doing it! You are so on target, & good on horror movies!" I, however disagree with you on Zombies Halloween 2! 😁👍

[@ilovethetalleys7375]

The scariest scene in horror for me would be the Hills have eyes remake when doug is fighting pluto in the house. That still scares me.

[@rozwynn2349]

All great picks! Great to see the sponsorship, well deserved. Also, great to hear about the fact that you enjoyed these movies with your Dad. It is always refreshing to hear people with good memories of childhood.

[@mellyyy1290]

Thank you for this video.. I know of shudder but was always too overwhelmed not knowing what to watch on it. Besides the famous movies ofc.

[@jasonvoorhees310]

Holy shit i was just about to watch this. Been waiting on the new episode which is today. I remember the original one that was on the Bravo channel back in the 90s when I was a kid. 100 scariest movie moments. So seeing this new one is just pure nostalgia. Glad to see you give your own little top 10. I love this time of year. Great video Cody.

[@jlaurie99]

The ending of Don’t Look Now sticks with me

[@thecorrected7401]

The first Hell House LLC movie is probably the scariest modern found footage movie i've seen. Shudder created a nice little trilogy with this series.

[@philliplallathin2341]

Agree one of my all time favorites

[@Nephyness]

I liked the first one a lot myself. The others...eh not so much. If you like footage style movies and can handle subtitles, I highly recommend Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum.

[@hoodiejalen366]

That’s funny I was just on Shudder and was wondering if you ever talked about it before

[@cjkent88]

Also in Black Christmas when he grabs her hair… and the transition to the suffocated girl in the rocking chair. The Babadook scene that also got me was when she saw it behind the police officer at the station

[@Strongbad251]

I can't overstate how much I love Shudder! There are such great movies and series on this.

[@brockgangell5759]

Not much of a selection imo but still good

[@johnanderson6614]

Signs when you see the Alien in the kids birthday party video gave me chills more than any scene ever.

[@Trill_Tour]

The 2 moments that stand out for me are: 1. Doppelganger scene from Lake Mungo 2. Coming down from the attic scene in Summer of 84 The monster reveal in Smile was pretty damn terrifying as well

[@jedshaffer5956]

I was also gonna say Summer of 84, but another scene: Mackey's warning to Davey. I showed it to my 16-year-old sons, and both of them said after that scene "well, I'm not sleeping tonight".

[@marcoslaureano5562]

Even though I was expecting Mackey to be in the house - that attic scene still surprised me because I thought the kid would just open his eyes and Mackey would be standing over him. Very effective reveal.

[@themuchdingdong]

Yeah that fucking lake Mungo scene man, at first when they did the jump I laughed and was like oh yall got me and I felt fine but later on it started to get under my skin and I didn't walk alone at night for months

[@Nephyness]

Summer of 84 is a movie I wish more people talked about. That ending was surprisingly horrifying. Scared me in a way I did not except or by conventional standards.

[@jedshaffer5956]

@@Nephyness Agreed 100%. I think the ending also has extra oomph because, until the last 15-20 minutes, it isn't a horror movie. But once it becomes a horror movie, it jams the pedal down.

[@lostlifevids]

Yeah I grew up with bravo movie moments as well. Stuff like audition would’ve never been on my radar without it.

[@grumpyoldwizard]

Shudder is a great channel. It is inexpensive and has a lot of quality movies.

[@emilyboggs9442]

Love your videos! Keep it up!

[@willthomas2310]

Nice recommendations! I think the bravo doc back in 04, is still the definitive horror documentary. This new one is still pretty good tho

[@gavinwolves2528]

Love shudder! Great reviews and perfect sponsor Cody 👍

[@STINKAHBELL]

"u can bring me the boy" lives in my head rent free

[@marcoslaureano5562]

Not trying to shoot down Shudder since I'm a subscriber - it's AWESOME - but for those on a limited budget, TUBI has an EXCELLENT horror selection this month (I'm assuming it's for the Halloween month). Way better than Netflix, but not as good as Shudder obviously. I'm subscribing month to month - so thx for the code. Makes sense for me and wifey to go for the whole year. Appreciations brother!

[@ilovethetalleys7375]

Would you do a review of frailty ?

[@danieldoesdumbstuff]

great film

[@ilovethetalleys7375]

Yeah he has said he likes it before so I figured he had reviewed it but he hadn't. I would like to hear his in depth thoughts on it.

[@takearushfan]

Dude, that scene in The Gate (I think I was only 5) freaked me tf out 😂 it felt like electricity pulsing through me

[@The_Knight_Mayor]

Shudder is for horror fans. Some great hidden gems and classics. I have AMC+ for The Walking Dead and SHUDDER is the fucking bad ass bonus.

[@SirHatchporch]

The canoe scene at the end of "Friday the 13th" gets me every time.

[@michaellrakes5521]

I was 7 when The Exorcist III came out and I remember my mom renting it, sitting up watching it with her and my sister and while it was losing me as a kid with some of the criminal investigation elements; the bizzaro sequences kept grabbing my attention. Things like the old woman on the ceiling, the train station dream sequence of all the deceased and time running backwards, the "It's a WONDERFULL life" scene all had my interests. But when that goddamn hallway scene kicked on, I absolutely flipped. I mean screamed out, tears in my eyes and shaking, going " Wha-Wha? WHAAAA WAS THAT?!?!!?". We kept rewinding that scene over and over and it never got less scary. It's STILL the benchmark to this day for what a jump scare should be

[@kimbasciano_]

I’ve been wanting to download shudder for years. I think I need to now! Love your videos Cody !

[@MrLando0]

I'm digging this show so far. It's interesting they also include series like Twin Peaks Return and Haunting of Hill House. I'm cool with it though. Intruder is baddass.

[@terrygracy8345]

That scene in exorcist 3. Because of the jump scare we just had I wasn’t ready. I couldn’t yell or react. I just exhaled really fast and couldn’t breathe for a couple of seconds

[@jahdorose8659]

Few of these movies on Tubi TV as well great list

[@my3rs307]

It's cool you mentioned Intruder!!! I've always wondered if you've seen it or not, thought you hadn't. An underrated 80s slasher!!! Maybe you'll even review it someday

[@archibaldsalyards926]

Love your picks!!! #1 is #1!! For me: when Michael Myers is coming for laurie down the stairs!!.. still gets me with Carpenters piano bit to support it. Second: an episode of the X-Files called HOME. When the sheriff and his wife are killed.. totally creeped me out!

[@onetnecghoti3473]

seen half of these, time to see the other half!😁

[@thectk1000]

I recently picked up Shudder to check out the latest entries in the VHS series. Im happy to say VHS 94 was a solid return to form after Viral. Had some truly creepy moments and some batshit insane moments as well. Now waiting to see 99.

[@vashishtramoutar8122]

You saved me. I've been trying to remember since last year what was that horror movie I watched with the eye in the boys hand. I was 10 when I watched the Gate. Thanks for the reminder.

[@tidepride86]

One of my favorite scary movie moments was in 1408 when Cusack looks across the street to the other building and sees himself in the other room. Then gets jump scared by Benny the Jet.

[@G-TV_TheOneManArmy]

I forgot about the gate I use to watch it on fearnet back in the day

[@alriley05]

Dope video Cody. Really liked this one 🙌🏾

[@kylecarlstrom1106]

Funny enough I have watched all episodes up to this point (waiting on episode 8) and the whole time I was thinking, "I hope Cody knows about this!" And here we are haha.

[@YaredYahu1212]

Exorcist 3 has the greatest jump scare ever made possible in film.

[@jasonsturges3540]

My top 10 favorite Scary movies of all time. Friday the 13th. Halloween. Nightmare on Elm Street. Salem's Lot. Cujo. The Howling. The Shining. Silver Bullet. The Conjuring. & The Changeling.

[@jasonsturges3540]

What does that mean???

[@RobertMere]

Hereditary and The Babadook are the only movies that have ever creeped me out

[@bobh1184]

I’d definitely check out Terrified and Deadstream on Shudder if you haven’t yet.

[@simonbarnett8668]

Hey Cody. Just letting you know I like Exorcist III: Legion more than the first film as well. I'm pretty sure I'm about eight years older than you, but we seem to have VERY similar taste in horror flicks. All the best from New Zealand.

[@sourpatchkid394]

The dark and the wicked freaked me out!! I watched it after my husband and kids went to sleep I was freaked out. I wish we got alittle more out of it. And yes bravos 100 scariest movie moments I watched it every year and I would take notes. “The gate” was a movie I saw when I was really young and I couldn’t remember what it was called I remember a hand coming through the center of the house and an eye in the kids hand and he stabs it…

[@DavidGutierrez-ib7rg]

Agreed. The Dark and the Wicked is top notch! Love it!!!

[@kgamzz26]

Yeah I’m loving shudders countdown. Bravos was great and I watched it multiple times. Luckily Shudder doesn’t have to censor itself. I know Shudder has included a few shows in this and I have to say that I’d be happy to see the jump scare from Haunting of Hill House. I am never really affected by those. But that one got me!

[@howardnick93]

I’d love a holiday horror favorites list!

[@hudsonsirheshicks2653]

THE GATE (1987) is underrated as fuck!! Incredible use of forced perspective - and excellent Craig Reardon makeup effects.

[@joyceshiver6622]

The Bravo series was the original goat! Loved that show, still watch it to this day

[@PetalThunder]

The first time I saw the jump scare in Exorcist 3, it scared me so bad that I screamed and woke my brother up 😂

[@Hobblone-xe3jv]

The scene in Alien where the size of the xzenomorph is first shown after it was hiding.

[@Deadpoolzilla]

Hey Cody, have you thought about doing a list for good entry-level horror movies for kids?

[@tysonjamesstroh5012]

Mad props to William Peter Blatty for directing this film. This was his 2nd film to direct. If you haven’t read The Exorcist or Legion, you are missing out.

[@FreakaJebus]

Intruder is such an underseen and underappreciated movie. Every Evil Dead fan should check it out.

[@ilovethetalleys7375]

Have you ever seen the ring with Naomi watts ?

[@HauntedHeme13]

Never heard of it...

[@cullenbohannon1408]

The Ring is overrated crap.

[@ilovethetalleys7375]

The ring is one of the scariest movies ever

[@Redhotwings_]

Ringu is better

[@ilovethetalleys7375]

I've never seen the original ringu.

[@jayboyjay17]

There's a film called "may the devil take you" on Shudder that has a few scenes that could of made this list. To quote Deadpool - "this guy's wearing the brown pants"

Cody thank you I never watched the Friday the 13th remake in 2009 I took your advice and watched it I really liked it very much thank you.

[@knoble1985]

The sequel to the descent ending really pissed me off. A person makes a sacrifice for nothing.

[@AVIT_yt]

No clue if it's on Shudder or not but the conjuring would have some moments on there for me.

[@douggrimes4022]

Bone tomahawk's ending is just brutal

[@kennymcgee1694]

If you haven’t watched it yet, you should watch Speak No Evil. I think it released on shudder like two weeks ago.

[@dkres82]

You know 06 Black Xmas is definitely awful but man do I love it. I usually start my Christmas Eve with that and end on the original with some Silent Night Deadly Night and other random stuff in the middle

[@jacobdenton6065]

It’s a terrifying film I watch it every Christmas Eve
