The 100 Scariest Movie Moments is an American television documentary miniseries that aired in late October 2004, on Bravo.[1][2] Aired in five 60-minute segments, the miniseries counts down what producer Anthony Timpone, writer Patrick Moses, and director Kevin Kaufman have determined as the 100 most frightening and disturbing moments in the history of movies.[3] Each segment includes interviews from horror genre experts and other celebrities who experienced the listed films, as well as film clips and movie stills from the films covered.[4][5][6] This 2004 offering was followed up in 2006 by the two-part sequel, 30 Even Scarier Movie Moments, as well as another countdown, 13 Scarier Movie Moments.[1]

In 2016, the New York Post Decider site called the series "the single best primer on horror cinema that has ever aired on TV."[7]
