Gotta go with The Green Mile
I remember fainting of the movie "Cats and dogs" ๐
It convinced me that animals (our cat) can speak. ๐
Came here to also say third scene of Trilogy Of Terror
The terminator, and Ed209 from RoboCop. Even back then I knew it was quite a possibility.
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.
Body Snatchers (1993)
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.
Not a movie, but The Real Ghostbusters episode (showing that age) with the Boogeyman was downright terrifying
SAW
if cartoons count, the "return the slab" episode on Courage the cowerdly dog, scared the hell out of me and I couldn't be in the dark for months after.
When I was quite a bit younger, The Mask freaked me right out. On top of the Goosebumps episode about a mask overtaking you, I straight up refused to put any on for the longest time. Still don't love them.
The start of the Goofy Movie, during Max's dream...those dark vibes hit me hard. Would wait in the bathroom until it was done.
The Ring was a big one because my "friend" called and did the whole "seven days..." thing. Before we had caller IDs. The same friend made me watch Darkness Falls, and I think I repressed it all because I remember nothing about it other than hating the whole experience.
Not much of a scary movie fan to this day. Go figure.
The Stephen King movie Silver Bullet. I have always really liked but been freaked out by werewolf movies and something about Everett McGills performance as the priest mixed with the usual stalking of the wolf really spooked me.
Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I had a room in a very messy basement at the time, in the dark it looked very similar to the one in the movie.

That was scaaary for young kids, I was afraid to watch it again 30 years after. Now it is almost funny.

Haunting in Connecticut. Iโm from Connecticut.
Saw Backdraft when I wasn't supposed to. Still have to have the door closed to sleep.
