10 Biggest Jump Scares In Star Trek

8. Dusk Of The Dead

This is not the zombie apocalypse, nor is it George Romero's 1978 chef-d'œuvre of the genre. Imagine, if you will, that something has gone terribly wrong. Yes, it's that flipping sex candle! Whatever possessed them to make Sub Rosa in the first place was a boon to silliness, with an attempt at a fright from beyond the grave.

Nothing says gothic horror more than anaphasic alien, a backlot copy of the Scottish Highlands some 200 light-years away, and fog on the 24th century starship. Ned Quint did try to warn us, and Beverly, in… an accent… of the shock to come. He was dead before you could say 'primary power conduit of the weather control system'.

Down on the crepuscular Caldos colony, it was all going orgasmically well for some. That is, before the exhumation. Transporter technology is a grave robber's dream, and an opportunity for Ronin the Unfriendly Not-Ghost. Nana Howard was back from the dead, bolt upright with bolts of green. Trust in the candle, Beverly. Trust in the candle! Within the definition of 'jump scare,' this was just about preposterous enough to count!
