8. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)
Memorable quote: “Hit ’er, grandpa, hit ’er.”
Scare factor: Frankly, there’s not much to not be scared about in this movie. Even before the bodies hit the meat hooks, the movie is simply unnerving. Once Leatherface makes his entrance, get ready for a full hour of psychological terror. If you ever complained about your in-laws, watch this movie and thank your lucky stars.
