Trek fright night - Scariest StarTrek epsidoes

[TheMasterOfOrion]

I was just think I might watch a few of the more 'horror' orientated episodes this week

What would you include ?

Scotty and Sulu transformed into mindless zombies ?

Riker in TNG trying to perform in a play detailing the recovery of a patient at an asylum

How about the Borg or the Vidiians (Gross Phage people) who go about stealing people's organs

 

[GodThingFormerly]

The Ultimate Computer scared the crap out of me as a young kid, particularly the scene where that engine room monkey gets vaporized by M-5 when he attempts to disconnect its power supply. The transporter accident in ST:TMP is also worthy of note.

Trek immaculately nailed horror in Empok Nor.

I'm in 100% agreement.

The Haunting of Deck Twelve was a good episode. So was The Thaw. Both would probably be more "creepy" than "scary", but I enjoyed both.

Some of the Expanse Arc episodes were pretty good too.

TNG: Schisms
And the Voyager episodes with Vidians

 

[Lateralus]

I don't know if I'd necessarily call it 'scary', but Deep Space Nine's Season 7 episode 'Field of Fire' certainly had an eerie/spookie feel to it.

TNG: "Frame of Mind", if psychological horror is more your bag.

Also give ENT: "Impulse" a shot if you're a Zombie-fiend!

The "I am for you" woman in "That Which Survives" always creeped me out. Especially the way she disappeared by flattening into a vertical line.

The holodeck was used very effectively in this episode, I've not seen it for an age but I remember the recreation of the surgical scene very well.

Another creepy episode IMHO is TNG's "Identity Crisis", another great holodeck recreation and a convincingly eerie planet to boot. Seeing Geordi slowly recreating the invisible alien that was stalking the Victory crew and the building panic from the Enterprise away team made the episode.

Next Gen - Disaster. Some funny parts in it, too.

I hated The Thaw! Scary!!!!!!!!!!!

Night terrors - beverly in the morgue.

The thought of the BoBW borg is pretty chilling too.

A lot of people did, I guess. I thought it was brilliant.

:: drumroll for the scariest of all my boyhood TOS's ::

Without question... Gamesters of Triskelion

Still creeps me out

 

[Corran Horn]

I'll go with "The Thaw".

 

[JD]

I'd also go with Genesis myself. I've always thought that was a fairly well done "horror" episode myself.

 

[Angel4576]

I'd agree with the posters who said Night Terrors and Identity Crisis. I wouldn't describe either as honestly 'scary', just 'unnerving'.

 

[AdmiralGarak]

Frame of Mind - In my opinion, it's Star Trek's best and creepiest mind-fuck episode. Dark, claustrophobic, and utterly unnerving.

 

[K-Star]

Phantasms, Masks, and Genesis were pretty creepy.
