It's a controversial one but the 'Heeeeere's Johnny' scene from The Shining has been voted the scariest horror movie moment and before you start to argue, 'scientific' tests have proved it.

Play.com conducted a poll where the heart rates of audiences were monitored while they watched scary movies. The tests revealed that viewers' heart rates increased by over a quarter when they came to the famous scene where Jack Nicholson runs rampant around the hotel, terrorising his family.

Overall, the poll found that A Nightmare of Elm Street was the scariest film. Filling out the top five were The Exorcist, The Ring, Alien and The Silence of the Lambs.
