Was there a jump scare in a movie that happened out of nowhere that scared you?


I'm sure you know what a jump scare is..it's when something unexpected happens and makes your blood pressure go up...

For me, it was in the movie "The Others"..when the kids were hiding in a cabinet and suddenly the door opens with the crazy lady...the loud music got me..

So what was yours?

Actually scared me? Nope. Made me jump? Sure.

Can't really think of any that are memorable except the one from The Dark Knight but even then it was pretty minor.

There are a few. One that comes to mind is in Independence Day, when the possessed scientist flaps up against the lab window.

Can't recall the jump scares some films have given me but some certainly have. Not scary though.

This, I wish they'd go away entirely. They're cheap, lazy attempts at suspense and shock.

I think, that people think that a jump scare scares people but really it's actually startling them.

The dead body in Mulholland Drive. Nothing else comes close. Not even the first appearance of the homeless man in Mulholland Drive. I think they're both different than normal jump scares, but they get the same reaction.

I pretty much agree with these posts. The jump scare I posted is one of the few that genuinely scared me a little (it helps that it came out of nowhere, without the usual stupid music buildup).

Most notable to me was near the start of playing outlast when you go into the room and the hanging body flies down at you as you open the door. Jump scares aren't too bad if they're done well, after doing a little marathon of insidious I kinda got the understanding on why people frown on jump scares.
