The Terminator (1984) did scare me as a kid, since I first saw T2 (1991), I really were not up to how much more of a dark and grittier atmosphere/story, the original had going. And the one scene that always kept giving me the chills, are the future "dream sequence" scene with Kyle Reese looking on at this seemingly unstoppable enemy, that are just relentlessly slaughtering every human being around, along with those red beaming eyes of death, that keeps staring at you in the dark, but also hearing the suffering screams of people dying.
That was quite a shock, and of course the police station scene, where you would like to think that with all those armed police officers, Sarah would be safe, but instead it turns into another bloody massacre.

I was a child of the 70s. Let's Scare Jessica to Death (1974) scared the crap out of me as a kid.
The original Halloween (1978) also gave me some sleepless nights.

Snow White when I was about 3/4 lol, older Disney films are pretty scary though. I remember seeing an advert for The Excorist being on tv when I was 8 and it frightened me. I watched it though and I thought it was boring. Oh wow, that reminds me: Phantasia. I had bad dreams after.

The music alone is creepy as hell, and I am kind of glad I did not watch this as a kid, but if I had, it would easily been amongst the top 5 scary movie scenes of all time.
Tarman, surely the creepiest looking zombie ever put on the big screen. As a kid I did not think of the film as a "comedy", as it scared the living crap out of me, and I must have spent some time looking down under the basement stairs, after seeing this film, and hoping that good 'ol, Tarman is not hiding there and waiting to eat my brain.

The Bat (1959) with Vincent Price
The Blob (1958)
And when I was about 10 I was going through the channels, and one of those 'restricted static' channels, you know the kind, you try and watch porn through the gray squiggles and snow, Night of the Demons was on, and I came in during the lipstick scene, that f*$ed with me for years, that and the coffin scene. And I never knew what it was until I was looking on Youtube for the movie Demons and found it by mistake, until that time I thought it was a very weird porno and didn't dare ask anybody 'what's this movie?' even on the 'need to know' board.

I saw the original Poltergeist on HBO as a kid in the mid '80s. The scene where the clown doll attacks the kid didn't help my issue with clowns creeping me out.

Trilogy of Terror (1975) - I was only 5 when this premiered on television. I doubt I was able to understand the first two segments, but the 3rd one... oh, you can believe I slept with my parents that night.

I was only around 5 or 6 when I had the misfortune of being babysat by these horrible people one summer. One day I went with them to their next door neighbor's house. On the tv set Poltergeist 2: The Other Side was playing. I had no idea what the movie was and because it was a spanish household it was being watched in Spanish dubs. We walked in during the last 15 minutes and I had to stay in the living room while they chatted with one another. My eyes never left the screen and I was scarred for years afterwards. Then I wanted to find the movie and that was so hard because as a young child I registered the Native Americans in the film as being Spanish so for the longest time I was looking for a Spanish horror movie. Anyway, here is part of the scenes that imprinted themselves on my mind:

Salem's Lot (1979), where the vampire is at the window. That scene scared the crap out of me.
Killer Party (1987) - some scene near the end when the killer (a possessed person) is chasing people around. Don't know why this one was scary. I saw it in a hotel room with a bunch of friends while on a school trip. I remember feeling scared but not wanting to let on like I was.

One of the very first horror movies I ever saw was William Castle's HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL (1959). It contains a scene that made me jump out of my seat, and it still packs a wallop today! Try this on for size and tell me what you think:

The only movie that ever really scared me was the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

I was petrified by Child's Play. My first experience with it was the ending sequence in Child's Play 2. Chucky is pretty scary when you are young, then so goofy when you get older.

Jaws, didn't even like taking baths let alone large bodies of water
Jurassic Park, raptors scared me more than the T-Rex.
Alien(s), Xenomorphs are simply nightmare fuel.

The whole transformation scene in The Howling (1981) was something else, and probably the only werewolf in a movie that really scared me as a kid. The music and Dee Wallace´s face/reaction says it all. Nowadays, most of the CGI used in monster/horror movies look so goddamn cheap and trashy, but I guess kids today would not have enough patience to sit around and wait more than 10 seconds or less to watch through a werewolf transformation scene.

Try this on for size and tell me what you think: I grew up on this movie, I LOVE it, yes, that old lady was scary as hell, just how she came out of nowhere, and just glided out...but to me, that movie was creepy, but it wasn't downright scary, to me, Vincent Price's The Bat from the same year was VERY scary.

Glad I'm not the only one. What I remember the most from the second one was the scene when Chucky rips off his hand and puts the knife in its place. It scared the hell outta me. Why oh why was I exposed to all three Child's Play movies? Hahaha.
