31 Scariest Movies of All Time: Chris Nashawaty\'s Picks

EW critic\'s fright Hall of Fame; see where he ranks classics including \'\'Scream,\'\' \'\'Suspiria,\'\' \'\'The Evil Dead\'\'--and his choice at No. 1

David Cronenberg is creepy. And Jeremy Irons is creepy. Put them together and what have you got? Wait! Before you answer, what if I threw in

Jeremy Irons just to up the creep factor even more? Irons, in what can only be described as a magic trick of a performance, plays a pair of brilliant identical-twin gynecologists who fall in love with the same infertile patient (Genevieve Bujold). Needless to say, it does not go well. You watch enough horror movies and you grow numb to machetes, axes, and chainsaws. But catching a glimpse of Irons\' \'\'surgical instruments for mutant women\'\'? That\'s something you won\'t be able to shake for a while.
