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

I'm stretching the definition of "movie", but MJ's Thriller caused me to start screaming when I wandered over to MTV while watching Mr Rogers. My mother ran in and changed the channel. It was on the transformation scene. Whoo!

I wanna add to that the MV for Pink Floyd's The Wall. Seeing all those kids with mangled faces just standing on the conveyer belt, falling one by one into the meat grinder and being turned into a mush just messed with my young brain

That video haunted my dreams for years as a child, both the werewolf and zombie scenes. Even hearing the music still gives me chills. I watched the video a few months back and it was about 50% as scary as I remembered.
