The 100 Scariest Films of All Time, according to LLMs Web Research

Gemini's Deep Research > ChatGPT's Deep Research > Grok's DeeperSearch > Perplexity's Research

"What are the 50 most frightening/terrorizing/scary films ever made?"

Technique to average the results was the same as this other LLM list.

Notes:
- Gemini fumbled (no proper output) but opened 500-1000 websites and could still make a beautiful infographic in a static site out of the failed research.
- Perplexity didn't give me a list at first, I had to ask for one specifically.
- Each model had some variations in how they wrote film titles (punctuation, spaces, capitalization).

I put an X on the films recommended both in the linked list and this one.
