For me it was Event Horizon, that was scary as hell when I was a kid, I had nightmares for months.

Pet Cemetery.

But not, like, the zombie cat, zombie dog, or zombie kid. What scared me shitless was the short little flashback of the wife's sick sister in bed.

This! The original one.

I dreamt that the white dog/wolf jumped over me and my midsection spasmed and it jerked me awake.

Also, Arachnophobia was terrifying! I felt that it was where my fear of crawling insects came from. Because when I was younger, I was not afraid of catching spiders as large as my tiny hands.

the original

Oh yeah, there's a remake now, huh? I, too, mean the original lol

Arachnophobia I saw when I was a little older, and thought it would scare me (since I hate spiders) but it was actually kind of funny.

yeah, looking back, I'm surprised that it affected me that much. You never really know what could trigger a lifelong change in your state of mind. Specially wen you think about it. I have actual first hand experience of catching a spider, yet a movie with made up scenarios made me not trust my experience and drove me to be afraid of spiders for probably the rest of my life.
