films that scared you

so I am sat here watching "Island of Dr Moreau"

I know that as a kid I saw this and it scared me ****less, now it still scares me for no reason whatsoever.

So, what did you see that you shouldn't that really scared you?

I know I've said this loads of times but the one that really does it for me is "Night of the Demon" and black and white film with Dana Andrews.

"The Moonspinners" has one scene that made me jump.

The Incredible Melting Man!

Scared the living daylights out of me. I went to see it with my mum and dad when I was about 13/14 then they dropped me off at home and popped out for a quick drink, which is something that the rarely did. Omg, I have never been so scared - I ended up phoning my Grandad so that I had someone to talk to. He was going to come over but my mum and dad came back - they'd been out for less than half an hour probably. I'd probably laugh at it now but omg, omg, omg!

Oh, and Dr Who!

I can't remember the name of the episode but there was a series of scary stories on TV once introduced by David Buck. One was set in a library. I was watching it with my cousin, our parents were out for the evening. This spooky dead guy was tap tap tapping along the bookshelves and we were huddled together on the hearthrug watching by firelight when there came a tap tap tapping at the window! We both nearly leapt out of our skin! It was my mother. She said she hadn't wanted to startle us by making a loud noise at the front door!!!
