*Black and white makes water look even more ominous.
Let's Scare Jessica to Death

Creepy kids...even worse in black & white...

Burnt Offerings
Suspiria
The Amityville Horror

Again, period films really work this way.

There are way too many good films in there to even begin commenting on them. The only one I have never heard of or seen is that one titled Sauna. That image was very cool and paired up with the rest of the pack, I would guess it's a good movie?
Matt - Sauna is a really atmospheric yet rather slow movie. Doubt it's for everyone but I couldn't resist all its creepy goodness! It's Finnish, but the dialogue is sparse at times so not annoying. Decent story...eerie stuff.
I don't mind slow if the story is good, and I love me some good atmosphere. I'll be adding it to the list...thanks for the recommendation!
Pan's Labyrinth might lose something with this conversion.
Some of these look AWESOME and I wouldn't mind one bit rewatching a few of them in black & white. That could be quite interesting, as a matter of fact.
1 vote each for Lake Mungo, Trick or Treat, The Machinist. hell, the Machinist one is totally off the scale... excellent!!!
