Ooooh, the Zuni doll! What a freakin nightmare! The clown doll from Poltergeist fucked my head up royally as did the tree.

Jaws made me quiver every night, 'specially when my sister hummed the famous tune of its fin whenever I got up to use the loo in the middle of the night.

Can't think of too many more, those weirdly winged guys from Beastmaster (what ARE they called?!) gave me the creepies, and speaking of creepies, after I saw Night of the Creeps, I was insanely paranoid of looking under the bed or in small dark places...

The scarecrows in Screcrows - seemingly so benign - but those lumpy, difficult-to-read faces...

"They're coming to get you, Barbara!"

The first time I saw 'Night of the Living Dead' (I was MUCH younger than I should have been...) those damn walking dead haunted me for months.

Also, I must have been in 7th grade when I saw 'Evil Dead' for the first time. Ash's girlfriend (Linda ?) posessed by the dead and giggling like a little girl, twirling her hair spooked the Hell outta me...

And all of you that mentioned 'Poltergeist', I'm right there with you.

Bigfoot movies have always especially frightened me. The Legend of Boggy Creek and The Creature from Black Lake the two best. I know with both movies it was just some guy in a cheap gorilla suit trying hard to keep hidden in the shadows so you wouldn't see any zippers, but it was still damn scary stuff. Boggy Creek may have been the first horror movie masquerading itself as a serious documentary film, pre-dating Blair Witch by almost thirty years. More recent stuff would be the Predator -- something unnerving about that mandibles mouth and almost human eyes -- and the werewolves from the Howling. If werewolves were real, that's exactly how I figure they would look.

i have given this a lot of thought and have a few of my own.

if humans can be monsters and they can...i would choose jack nicholson in the shining i saw that when i was 4 and spent many nights thereafter in bed with the parents. lol

as far as creatures go, the alien creatures from the thing also scared the pants off of me when i was but a wee lad. the giger aliens also caused trauma...

The vampires in Salem's lot. Mostly the one taping on the glass in the window scene.

The shark in Jaws of course.

The Thing, is doesn't get better then this.

And the Aliens of course.

Cheers!

The Alien. the chestburster still freaks me out cuz I had severe stomach problems as a kid and my sis thought it was really funny to make me watch Alien to explain what was wrong with my insides...

The Thing. easily one of my favorites... has everybody downloaded the trailer to the game yet? it's a zipped realplayer file over at:
http://www.xboxgate.com/Movies/trailers/the-thing.zip

it looks pretty good!

eh, to continue...

Jaws. I saw this when I was six. I've always loved sharks, and I always will, but I;ve always kept dreams of being eaten by a huge great white shark in a shark cage... I know he didn't die in the flick, but he did die quite nicely in the book!

the Deadites. I never have had problems with zombies, but these guys are a whole different thing. Evil Dead is a truly scary flick!

Freddy Krueger scared the fecal matter out of me when I saw the first Nightmare on Elm Street. I was 11, and went to sleep with the lights on like a little be-yotch for the following three days. The scene where he was walking down the alley with his claws scraping the walls really stuck with me.
