Watching Alien when I was a kid gave me nightmares that lasted decades, long past the time when horror movies actively scared me. I was fully aware of all of the aspects of movie making, I was in school for film, knew everything it took to make the original film and STILL would have nightmares. It dug into my hind-brain and didn't let up.
