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

Critters or Ghoulies? Never watched the latter but the vhs tape cover had one coming out of the toilet:

I never watched Ghoulies, but I'll never forget walking through the rental store and the box was eye-level with tiny kid me. Scarred me pretty bad. After that I was terrified of flushing the toilet, so toilet lid always had to be down and as soon as I flushed I would run from the bathroom.

Took me probably twenty years to completely get over it.
