Most of the ones I've thought of are ghost/haunted house stories.

I'll submit Poltergeist.

ETA - movies in which no one dies. Memories and visions don't count.

Didn't the house slaves kill themselves by hanging in the tree?

Technically, we saw dead bodies in a swimming pool in Poltergeist.

I took the OP as someone getting murdered and not flashbacks or visions.

Poltergeist


That movie scared the shite out of me as a kid. Krueger, Jason, Halloween, etc. didn't phase me but Poltergeist did.

I watched Poltergeist for the first time in probably 30 years not too long ago, and I think it held up pretty well.

I don’t remember seeing any bodies, but memory is foggy. Been a long time since seeing it.

Yes, that's how I would define it
Movies I'm which no one dies - memories and visions don't count.

did they? while it's assumed, there's certainly nothing on screen proving this. i actually think BWP is a pretty good pick for this category.

First one that came to mind. The Sixth Sense scared me as a kid and a good movie.

I've never viewed Signs as a horror movie at all, but I guess it sort of could be. If so, that's a good one for this thread.

ETA: As for the BWP debate, I still would argue that there are deaths in that one. Even if not shown onscreen, it has to be assumed that the one dude dies when they find what is supposed to be his teeth/jaw or whatever. If BWP counts, then I guess that's a good choice. But the whole premise is that they "disappeared" and their footage was found. So them dying is all but drawn into the plot itself.

Poltergeist is definitely a good choice, and may win the thread so far.
