alien and the conjuring cant be compared its not the same type of horror
but as a whole alien is far better
conjuring franchise is fine
if u like conjuring try sinister the first is great, the second is ok, i hope they do a third eventually
babadook is great
didnt like midsommar, the witch and hereditary, there some wtf moments but overall for me they missed the mark
Sinister was pretty solid. Definitely one of the scarier movies of the last decade.

Oh yea alien as a whole was def a great movie but I wouldn't put it anywhere near scariest. I think what really made conjuring great is its based on true story or at least the possibility of it. The fake outdated unrealistic scifi doesn't do it for me. I am pretty sure the "THING" was way more SCARIER If we going to compare
The Thing is obviously another classic great scary movie.
Alien used a lot of horror similar to Jaws. The first time you see the shark in Jaws is a top 10 scary moment in cinema history imo because of the anticipation and build up of not seeing the shark for most of the movie. Alien did the same thing which made the few scenes with the Xenomorph that much scarier.
And lol at saying the Conjuring was realistic. Shit is as possible as Star Wars.
