The Wizard of Oz. My preschool teacher played the movie one time while we were under a tornado warning and as the first scene was happening, the tornado started to make that incoming train noise off in the distance and the power started to flicker on and off. I nearly shat myself. I now am obsessed with tornadoes, though .

Also, Scream was shown to me as a young-ish child (maybe around 10-12) and the scene where the girl was hung in the trees fricked up my sleep schedule for a while.

Boogeyman or Poltergeist. I forget which one I saw first.

The Exorcist. Saw it when I was 9, and in that house, my bed would shake a little when our washing machine was in it's spin cycle. Scared the shite out of me after seeing Regan's bed shake like it did in the movie.

The Fog (original of course)
ET

The Peanut Butter Solution messed me up, too. Just the scene where the kid's hair turned white.

Child's Play by far.

I still flinch when I go visit my grandmother & walk into her bedroom & see those god damned porcelain dolls staring at me.

this movie...


Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. I was real little when I saw it, and watching all the weird crap happening to those kids (didn't one of them inflate?)...

I think it permanently killed my appetite for candy

I'm 40 and they still frick with me. Nothing like thinking you're awake and you see a pair of red eyes in your bedroom and you can't move or speak.

The Exorcist
Followed closely by The Omega Man with Charlton Heston. Even with cheesy 70s effects it was better than the I am Legend reboot.

Nightmare on Elm Street.

Was too young to understand the plot, but all I knew at the time was that Freddy Kruger scared the everliving shite out of me
