I was scared to death of the Dr. Phibes movies. Now they are just stupid. Anyone else have one that scared them?

Phantasm. It's goofy as an adult, but man, when I was a kid, that little flying silver ball with blades that sucked people's brains out, and the Tall Man yelling "Boy!", that was scary as hell to us.

Not sure why my parents let me watch them. I was probably in elementary school at the time. Still have a thing about dolls and clowns.

Some cheap ass low budget film from the late seventies, early eighties. People were in some cabin in the woods. Lots of low POV shots hauling as in the woods. I think on I remember branches reaching for people, lots of screaming. I was terrified for weeks. Can't remember the name.

Thank God I'm not the only one. Heating vents terrified me, and there was one right next to the toilet in the bathroom we kids used.

Pet Sematary

Watching their 3 year old get flattened by a semi got to me since I had a brother around that age.

Didn't care about the evil cat. The person coming back as something else creeped me out a little.
