For me it was Event Horizon, that was scary as hell when I was a kid, I had nightmares for months.

Night of the living dead. My brother and I rented it when I was about 7 I think. Didn't make it more than 10 minutes into that movie and I was begging him to turn it off.

Ernest scared stupid... Don't ask me why, I just remember I couldn't watch it entirely, and I would hide behind my older brothers. It just freaked me out!

Saw Backdraft when I wasn't supposed to. Still have to have the door closed to sleep.

Another victim to Event Horizon here, man that film fucked me up for a while.

Shallow Ground terrified me. I've had nightmares for a while after that.

An honourable mention: The Pirates of Dark Water - The Beast and the Bell. Fuck Keroptus.

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

I watched The Ring and The Grudge when I was 12. I had trouble sleeping for the next year or two because I kept imagining I could see Kayako watching me from the ceiling of my closet, and slept with the TV on because it scared me less than the blank screen.

I was not a smart child.

Fire in the Sky. It's about an alien abduction and the dude has PTSD and flashbacks throughout. Ruined maple syrup for me for a long time.
