The Legend of Hell House. I was 11 and snuck into the theater to see it.

Probably not what you're going for, but Jack and Jill. Adam Sandler as a woman. Nightmares for weeks.

To me the Blair Witch Project was BEYOND scary!!! It was a psychological thriller, that as I watched was creepy, but thinking about it later made me scared to death! And other people I knew who saw it were like me and thought it was really scary and others thought it wasn't scary at all! Seemed it went one way or the other. Nobody I knew said it was just OK or 'kind of scary"!!

Not the scariest but I think my favorite horror movie is the original Amityville Horror!!!! I LOVE that movie!!!

I always had a fear of dark water and Jaws didn't help. I can watch the movie without a problem now but watching it at the theater for the first time scared the heck out of me.

I thought it was scary too. It's one of the rare horror films I saw in the theater more than once. That ending still gets me. And it's not just the movie, but the tie-in documentaries they made: Curse Of The Blair Witch, and The Burkittsville 7 (which was about Rustin Parr, whose house they go to at the end.)

And you're right, people go one way or the other on it. What's funny, a friend who I thought would like it hated it, and a friend who I thought would hate it liked it and thought it was scary.

I couldn't shake The Shining for days after seeing it in the theater. It can still unnerve me if I happen upon it while channel surfing.

There are a lot of movies that are way too scary for me.
I remember the very first scary movie I saw. It was called Return To Oz. I don't recommend letting 6-year-olds see that movie. Heads that can be removed, a case full of heads that can talk, being strapped down to a bed in an institution, etc. It was creepy. I saw that in 1985. The Child's Play (Chucky) movies are too scary as well.

The Ring is pretty scary, a dead girl crawling out of a TV to kill her victims is pretty creepy. Plus, the videotape in the movie is pretty damn creepy. A worm coming out of someone's mouth, a chair spinning by itself, a finger going through a nail, a woman looking right at the viewer, the same woman throwing herself off of a hill, a burning tree, a box of detatched fingers twitching in a box, blood rushing into an ocean, a bunch of maggots..so damn creepy and disturbing.

About 10 years ago, I caught the original "Night of the Living Dead" on TCM in the middle of the night. It really unnerved me and I didn't sleep for the rest of the night.
