Do you like scary movies? Sure you do. It's spooky season after all, so what better way to get into the Halloween spirit than by plopping down in front of a film engineered to scare your pants off.

Scary movies are a dime, a dozen of course, but every one of us has one movie that really got to us.

A film so deeply terrifying that it haunts our dreams

and sometimes like when you go downstairs to get a drink of water in the middle of the night that

invades our real lives as well.

I'm Aisha Harris. And I'm Glenn Weldon and today on

NPR's pop culture happy hour we're talking about the scariest movies we've ever

seen.

Joining us today is NPR producer Mark Rivers. Welcome back Mark.

Very happy to be here, Glenn.

Happy to have you. And also joining us is Jordan Cruciola. She is a writer and producer and the host of the podcast Feeling Scene on Maximum Fun.

Hey Jordan.

Hello, good morning everyone.

Hello, hello.

All right, I love it when I don't have to write an elaborate table setting

or do a really big explanatory comma,

no preamble, no table setting, just a simple premise.

Scariest movie you've ever seen, Mark hit me. All right, so there have been plenty of movies kind of over the years that have kind of gotten under my skin or, you know, really unnerved me.

I remember when I was young, Carrie really hit me hard, but I think the one movie today that anytime I watch I'm just calling his death grip is the Babaduke.

Babaduke.

Dook.

Good pick.
