When i was 8 years old that time the most scariest movie is "EVIL DEAD" scare me so much, its really so horrable movie and i cnt see that type of horror movies in lonliness.
Gender: Male Location: Training the machines of War.
Scariest part in that was when the mannequin turns out to be a zombie and it jumps out. That scared me shitless and that was only a year or two ago, lol.

lol... I was 3 or 4 when I first saw it, to me the scariest scene was when the swat team made their way into the room where a a man (zombie) was missing his legs and was crawling for the young swat member... hell I didn't get enough balls to finally watch it until I was fourteen, great now I feel like watching it again...hehehe.
1. The ghostly moaning sounds from the original "13 Ghosts" gave me the creeps.
2. The original "Paranormal Activity" was creepy.
3. What actually scared the hell out of me as a young child (3 yo), what sent me into a screaming panic? One was an old "I Love Lucy" episode, the one where she wants to prove she can sculpt, but can't, so to impress Ricky she stuck her head through a hole in the table and covered it with clay. When the impressed art collector said he wanted it, Lucy opened her eyes suddenly wide. That moment freaked me out, and gave me nightmares of flying statue heads for years.
The other item was an old Max Fleischer cartoon about a greedy Humpty Dumpty (hey, I was 6 at the time). Just something about the whole drawing style was creepy, and when he and the whole wall fell, I lost it, just like with the Lucy episode.
Nothing else has ever come close to frightening me like those two instances. Since then, I might get the creeps over something, or be startled or grossed-out, but not out-n-out scared witless. Other movies that might scare me, like "Taken" (because I have a daughter), would scare me if I watched them (for real, non-supernatural reasons), so I don't.

As a little kid, the wicked witch in Wizard of Oz scared me bad. So did Guy Smiley on Sesame Street, which is funny considering he was the only human muppet.
Young adult and even today? The Exorcist.
Special mention to the ghost dancing to "Tip Toe Through The Tulips" seen through the window in Insidious. Creeped. Me. Out.
In or around 1974 there was an Exorcist rip-off called Beyond The Door that scared me so bad that the light bills in the house were substantially higher for quite awhile. Some say the movie came before the Exorcist, some say after, but no matter it was a chilling movie. Adding to that scare factor was the ever-present but unseen devil, who you heard breathing in the background. Not only that but the trailer was played regularly around bedtime for us young un's in the 70's, which was an extra scare factor!
If you think the poster is bad, try the movie on for size! As well as that, as I said before, the TV spot just before bedtime was an added scare. Perhaps one of the most played TV spots.
Night Of The Living Dead 1968 scared me quite bad too. Beyond The Door was bad enough, but when I went to see NOTLD at the drive-in with my cousin at around age 11, I was REALLY scared!
Making it worse, was when ABC (channel 7) showed it late at night.
I was sitting in the house alone one night when I was a bit older. Actually my dad was asleep on the floor and my mom was upstairs in bed, but I was effectively alone.
The part of the movie with the simulated TV newscast about the dead coming to life was on, and I was freaking out. Not to mention the fact that a loud thump was heard outside, which turned out to be my neighbor coming home from work. But sitting in the dark and hearing that broadcast was a truly scary thing as I was imagining what if it were real...
Oh man the original Dawn of The Dead? I was about 14 or 15 when the TV spots played at night. I was soooo-disappointed when the NC-17 rating was in effect. However, the local drive-in was run by people we knew for years and they let my cousin and I in (my mom too as she was driving) and the movie was the best I'd ever seen at that time! Aside from the TV spots for Beyond The Door the TV spots for DOTD were the coolest!
Here's one of the original American TV spots that I remember fondly:
Yeah, a joke that scared the shit out of an entire generation of us young un's. There too, we always had the original Dawn of The Dead and Zombie TV spots to look forward to, now they were cool!
