As scary as vampires are, Blacula isn’t so much scary as it is creepy and just plain fun to watch (catch it and it’s sequel Saturday at 6pm ET). But that’s because it doesn’t tap into the things that truly scare people.

Given that’s its Halloween time, we figured the best way to illustrate some of the things that scare us is to look at the films that best show some of the things that give make you thikn twice before entering a dark room.

So, without further ado, we present the Top 3 Scariest Movies . . . To Black Folks.

Jaws
What It’s About: A New York cop moves to a beach town for a slower life only to find he’s up against a ruthless killer – a really hungry great white shark with an appetite for anyone brave enough to get in the water.
Why It Scared Black People: If you listen to comedians, Black folks are afraid of swimming but take a look at any public pool in the summer and you can debunk that myth. What Black folks are afraid of is swimming with wild animals. Namely, ones with mouths big enough to swallow Volkswagons.

Cujo
What It’s About: A mother and son battle their pet dog that has become insane after being bitten by a bat with rabies.
Why It Scared Black People: Given our uneven history with dogs, specifically those employed by local police departments, you’d think we’d be really frightened of dogs. Unfortunately, Michael Vick has proven otherwise. That said, Black folks have a healthy respect for mother nature and untamed creatures, especially when those creatures have rabies and want to bite you. Cujo could have been about a rabid squirrel and we’d still be hiding behind our fingers.

The Exorcist
What It’s About: Supposedly based on a true story, Exorcist tells the story of a young Washington, DC girl who is possessed by the devil.
Why It Scared Black People: It’s not called the scariest movie of all time for no reason; all that head-spinning, projectile-vomiting and bed-shaking frightened the world, but let’s be clear, it scared the mess out of Black folks. Simply put, we don’t mess with the devil. Not on screen, in books or even cartoons. Deviled eggs, maybe. But THE Devil, not so much.

When you’re watching Strictly Business this weekend (Saturday at 9pm [ET]), I want you to remember that this film that changed the lives of Black women every where. It was the beginning of the Berry-era, where like death and taxes, Halle Berry’s sexiness would no longer be questioned by any man – boyfriends, brothers and husbands everywhere are willingly under her spell. Watch the trailer for Business here.

One could make the argument that the Berry-era should have started with Berry’s debut role in Jungle Fever. True. And what most men won’t admit is that while watching Berry play a drug addict, they were secretly thinking — “Damn, that crack-head is fine!”

So how does Berry preserve her sexy while taking on various roles and fending off the constant barrage of upcoming starlets? I’m guessing some sort of Hollywood kryptonite, or perhaps, magic. But to be sure I had to do some research into the roles that kept Berry an icon of hotness.

Boomerang (1992)
Role: Angela Lewis
Sexy Factor (1-10): 7. Despite this being one of her most famous roles, Berry was actually the “good girl” vs. Givens’ vamped-up character. Still, her wholesomeness was still . . . hot.
Competition: Robin Givens, Tisha Campbell and Lela “Sunshine” Rochon
WATCH: Halle gives you cute and bilingual in this hilarious scene.

Swordfish (2000)
Role: Ginger Knowles
Sexy Factor (1-10): 8. After years and years of waiting, Halle Berry revealed the one thing men everywhere had been waiting for. Actually, the two things they had been waiting for. While some hated on her decision to go topless, Berry earned an extra $500,000 for the role.
WATCH: No, it’s not THAT scene, but here is Halle macking it down with Hugh Jackman.

Die Another Day (2001)
Role: Jinx
Sexy Factor (1-10): 10. Slow motion was created for two reasons and two reasons alone; 1. To playback really good plays during a sporting event.
2. To watch Halle Berry come out of the water in that orange bathing suit, shaking her hips like a hoola-hoop.
WATCH: See the trailer for Die Another Day right here.

QUESTION: Is Halle still Black Hollywood’s sexiest woman?
