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

    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

    The Strangers. I lived in a house similarly isolated with a sliding glass door just like the one in the movie where she moves the curtain and he’s right there staring in.

    Those really weird thumb creatures from Spy Kids. Could not STAND them and the movie would rerun almost every day.

    Also King Rameses from Courage the Cowardly Dog.

      Spy Kids is creepy as fuck to this day. The writers had to be taking some kind of substance because that shit was weird.

    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!

      The part where the girl checked under her bed, then she looked back up and the monster was in the bed with her… That was the part that got me.

    The first Resident Evil movie. Not because of the zombies, it was the laser scene that got to me. I was convinced that lasers would come out of any reflective surface to get me. I didn’t like how they seemed to react to the guy avoiding them, making it impossible for him to escape, like they were intelligent and trying to kill him.

    Child’s Play. I was, like, 5? when I watched it. A lot of my toys ended in my older sister’s room because I couldn’t stand them, I was afraid that they’d chase me.

    Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The old animated one by Disney. The Witch/Evil Queen scenes would always scare the living shit out of little old me! When my sister and I would watch the movie with our grandparents, they would have to fast-forward through those bits.

      That and some other horror movies i really liked, like ghost ship that had an into scene where a bunch of people got sliced up by a quick moving wire. Then there was what, cabin fever?

      But yeah slice and dice was pretty gross.

    Definitely Stephen King’s IT, the 90’s miniseries. Tim Curry is absolutely terrifying as Pennywise. That lip curl he does when he says “Oh yes, Georgie, they float”.
