The first Resident Evil movie. Not because of the zombies, it was the laser scene that got to me. I was convinced that lasers would come out of any reflective surface to get me. I didn't like how they seemed to react to the guy avoiding them, making it impossible for him to escape, like they were intelligent and trying to kill him.

Fantasia, not specifically the Night on bald mountain section, but the bits with the orchestra.

Also a TV series in the UK called Mealstrom. The paintings would come to life, which was ok but the intro was creepy AF https://youtu.be/_FwP5LAXd7U

killer klowns from outer space. now as an adult i find out its considered a comedy!

An American Werewolf in London. My parents were watching it when I was like 6. The opening sequence on the moors scared the hell out of me, and they decided I should go to bed. I think they had heard it was a comedy, so weren't prepared for actual horror. That scene stuck with me for like 20 years before I ever rewatched it. It's a good movie as an adult.

The first scene of Willow

My Girl. The ending with the kid dying from getting stung by all those bees messed with my mind as I was only like 5 or 6 when I saw it.

Wrath of Kahn.

I was not ready for the ear worm scene.

That was scaaary for young kids, I was afraid to watch it again 30 years after. Now it is almost funny.

The Tall Man from Phantasm scared the shit out of me

I still have a nightmare once a decade about him chasing me screaming "BOY!"

Maximum Overdrive. It has taken me until adulthood to get over the irrational fear that big machines like trucks will come alive and drive me over. For many, many years I always got a slightly uneasy feeling when I'm cycling and a big truck goes by (even though I live in a country with good bike infrastructure and bike on separated bike paths). Even now at 26 I occasionally get the feeling. It's silly, and I've mostly gotten over it. I guess my interest in cars and anything mechanical has helped me get over it, thankfully curiosity is sometimes strong than fear.

Funnily enough I occasionally listen to AC/DC and at some long ago point I stumbled upon their album "Who Made Who" and it became a favourite of mine. It was only a few years ago I realized that the album is the soundtrack to Maximum Overdrive!

Several years ago I actually bought a DVD copy of the movie; it's still wrapped in plastic to this day. It's not that I'm scared to see it, I just haven't gotten around to it yet, and by now I'm unsure where it even is any more.

The Exorcist, specifically the part where she runs down the stairs upside down on all 4s and screams. Me and my brother cried forever that night lol

After whining for a long time my mom let me see Carrie on a Wednesday afternoon, the Sissy Spacek version. After watching it pretty unscathed to the end the scene came where they show her grave and the hand rises up from the grave....My first official jump scare and since I still remember it today, it has left quite the impression.

The terminator, and Ed209 from RoboCop. Even back then I knew it was quite a possibility.

I don't recall the name of it, it was not a big Hollywood movie or anything, and it was super low budget.

But it was some old Christian movie about what will happen to you if you don't get "saved" before the Rapture happens. I remember a song called "I wish we'd all been ready" playing. Not sure if that's the name of the song, not even positive it was actually in the movie at all, or if it was just something I heard around the same time and the memory is getting blurred.

From what I recall, it looked like it was made in the 70s.

I wish I remembered more about it. It was intended to scare the shit out of you to believe in religion. Worked on me at the time, I remember praying like a million times to make sure I did it right the night I watched it, and randomly at times for years as I remembered the scared-shitless feeling.

Religious trauma is a hell of a drug.

I kinda wanna watch it again now that I'm older.

When I was 4 and watched Spirited Away I was terrified

Something was on TV and I have no idea what it was nor do I care to try to find it. Someone was in the hospital and transformed into some sort of monster while the nurse was out of the room and when she came back in it reached out from under the hospital bed and ripped her fucking leg off. I'd never had thoughts about monsters under the bed before but after that I always jumped as far away from the edge of the bed as possible when I got out.

Superman III

Stephen King's IT.

Tim Curry is a phenomenal actor.

Schindler's List. Saw plenty of scary movies before this, but that scene where the officer murders the engineering prisoner who's just trying to tell him about a problem with the building. It just sticks in my mind to this day as maybe the first time my young, sheltered self had been confronted with a realistic example of what dehumanizing could do.

Shutter, but the original Thai version.

For years after watching it I needed to make sure I was holding the bottom of my blanket with my legs all night long. Damn..

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The old animated one by Disney. The Witch/Evil Queen scenes would always scare the living shit out of little old me! When my sister and I would watch the movie with our grandparents, they would have to fast-forward through those bits.
