The Shining. The unsettling feeling throughout the whole movie, the score, the lady in the bathtub. Frightened me when I was younger. Still my favorite horror movie.

Event Horizon. I had a stomach bug when I watched it in the theater which raised my sense of unease but even without that it's still a really scary movie.

Fire Walk With Me is one of the most harrowing movies I've ever seen. The levels of dread and the different kinds of horror on display, from abstract terror to very real horrors that people have to cope with every day, made my skin crawl and stuck with me long after the credits rolled. I can understand why a lot of fans and critics ravaged it at the time, despite how incredibly unfair I think that is. It's simply not a fun watch past the first 20 minutes and really gets under your skin.

Child's Play 2. i was about six at the time, and i'm walking through the den and my dad's watching, and he goes "hey come check this part out". Phil proceeds to walk down the stairs and Chucky trips and kills him. it didn't help matters that my mom, who brought a bunch of her old stuff back after a trip to her parents, gave my sister a doll like this earlier that day: i slept with a wooden bat by my bed for the next year ET and My Girl, when I was like 3-4. i'll second ET, especially the opening. eerie music, its dark and foggy, everything's silhouetted, then the government agents show up and ET starts shrieking and running through the woods while his chest glows. its goddamn nightmare fuel for small children

Nosferatu, he scares the hell out of me especially when he just stands and stares.

ET kinda scared me. I always thought he looked so creepy and gross. As I got older, I realised that him looking like a giant ballsack is probably what creeped me out.

I remember being scared of The Haunting. The remake one, I think? A good chunk of it was thanks to me being on the way to a pretty bad fever as I watched the film in HBO. That factor didn't help at all.

As a kid, Darth Vader choking to death that one resistance soldier scared the hell out of me.

That factor didn't help at all. Me too. I think because it had a rating of 12, so I was allowed to watch it when I was 9 or 10 because, hey, how creepy could a 12 movie be? When really, it slways seemed like a film that should have been rated 15.

The transformation scene in The Witches terrified me when I was a kid to the point that I’ve never, ever seen the the film in full since

Jaws. It didn’t really scare me at the time because I thought sharks were cool when I was a kid. However the imagery from the movie stuck with me so much that when I went into the ocean for the first time I didn’t want to go too far out due to the concern that a shark might take me under. The movie definitely affected me. I just didn’t realize it at the time that I watched it.

28 Days Later.
Maybe it's because it was based in the UK but the abandoned London scene and just how realistic the Infected seemed..More so than your average Zombie types.
I was round a friends house when I first watches it..I remember walking home afterwords, I was consistently looking around and got nervous by the slightest sight of movement.
Not many movies make me do that.

I think the movie is called gargoyles. They used to randomly show it on TBS. There's a scene when the Male gargoyle looks into the camera and let's out and evil laugh then the movie goes to commercial. I used to have nightmares about that scene.

The Birds saw it in 4th grade. Big mistake. I still don’t trust those things.

Jacob’s Ladder and Altered States. The surreal feeling of the films with the more grounded stories makes them deeply unsettling to me.

No joke, the original Night of the Living Dead scared the shit out of me as 6-year-old and it was over 30 years after that film was released. I couldn't sleep in my own bed that night.
The original Texas Chainsaw Massacre used to scare me so much that I'd leave the room whenever I'd catch snippets of it. Leatherface was one of the most terrifying characters I'd ever seen.

I don’t know if “scared” is the right word, but there were two moments in the 1990 TMNT film that were very hard for me to watch when I was young:
First, when the Foot Clan ambushed Raphael. Like many young Turtles fans, I grew up with the cartoon and was unaware of the series’ darker comic-book origins. Sure, the Turtles would usually get into some predicament in each episode, but it was resolved in a few minutes and they were cracking jokes and eating pizza in the end. There was nothing funny about what happened to Raph, despite the attempts to lighten the mood during the brawl in April’s apartment.
Second, when Tatsu completely lost it and beat the shit out of the young Foot Clan member. Again, this wasn’t the TMNT I was used to.
Not the movie as a whole, but The Blank (from Dick Tracy) creeped me out as a kid. The moment when we first see him and he’s just staring at the camera really unnerved me. And that voice ... I would not want to hear it in a dark alley. *shudders*
Sinister, especially the part when Ethan Hawke is walking down the dark hallway and the ghost kids appear.
I was dealing with some pretty bad anxiety when I saw it, so that may have been a reason.

Hereditary. Everything about it. Especially the ending.
