Movie Scenes That Frightened You The Most

One recent film people talk about is Insidious. I found it to be okay, but nothing spectacular. The first half was decent, had a few creepy parts (the baby's room scene), but then fell apart after the first hour. It had potential to be a good quality haunted house flick until they overdid it.
The scene when the mother sees a dancing demon/ghost/boy/thing(?) in her house is one of the more talked about ones, but I didn't find it all that impressive or scary. The song that is played when she discovers him in her house is a little creepy, but that's about it.
Okay ghost movie if you forget all the cheesiness of the idiotic 2nd half.

I remember as a kid the movie When a stranger calls (late 70s or early 80s). It scared the crap out of me. About a year or so ago I fell asleep watching TV on the couch. Well if I don't wake up to the line "have you checked the children lately". That was it for me. I was plastered on that couch until the sun came up much to my husband's amusement.
In a nutshell this movie is about a babysitter who starts getting creepy calls. Turns out they are made by a psychopathy hiding in the house. There has been a remake but the original is much creepier.

I heard they're planning on making a modernized re-remake of this film: "When A Stranger Texts."
Woman is sitting on sofa in a large house. She receives a new text message from a strange number:
Text: "Have you checked the children lately?"
Confused, the woman texts a reply: "Who is this???"
After hitting the Send button, she hears a text alert coming from upstairs.
Man's voice: "Dang it!"
Woman runs out of house safely.
The End
(Okay, I never said it was going to be a LONG movie).

Nah...I dug Insidious (though the last 30min was a bit...."Huh?).Watched this and the scariest thing is that i will never get the time invested in this pile of baloney back
It's even better when you watch Insidious Chapter 2, which answers a lot of questions. I thought 2 was very well done.
Here's one that falls under the category of scary when you're a child, but laughable as an adult. (Seriously, was this considered special effects back then?) From 1979's original The Amityville Horror, it's the little girl's imaginary friend "Jodie".
If I remember correctly, "Jodie" was some sort of evil pig/monster thing. (Doesn't the father see it later in the attic window hissing at him or something?) Despite the dated special effects, the original Amityville was a classic ghost story, but the 2005 remake was pure garbage...as most remakes are.

The part in Indianna Jones Raiders of the Lost Arc when they open the arc creeps me out. Same in Last Crusade when the guys drinks from the wrong grail and he starts to transform to death.

In Rosemary's Baby for some reason I find the scariest moment to be when she locks herself in the apartment and goes to call for help. Then as she is on the phone someone runs by in the background. It was just this moment of, "Wait was that a goof? Who was that, she just locked everyone else out? What the hell is going on?"
And this is a movie that has creepy old people and Satan raping the protagonist. Yet, the part that freaked my out was someone running by in the background.

The Blob was definitely a good movie to freak me out as well.
The Birds scene where they show the eyes pecked out of that guy also scared the bejebus out of me.
Apparently there's a creepy doll in The Conjuring named Annabelle. I haven't seen that movie, but it got some pretty decent reviews, which is a rarity for modern horror films.
