A guy being shot to the head until it turns into mushy red pulp from 4chan. Might have been the reason for all my psyche problems ngl.

Alien. Saw it when I was under 10 years old. I wouldn't say it haunts me but close enough.
Dad was watching and i was 3 at the time I have no fear of that movie love watching it...... But critters... When there's the one in the toilet and the guy rushes in and sits on it. Well lots of teeth in a toilet only has one outcome and it scared my away from the toilet for a long time. I was like 6 at the time

The Gate
Khilona bana khalnayak. Tatya bichchhu. Om bhatt swaha!
Saving Private ryan. I was 11 or 12. The slow knife scene hasn't left my mind till this day.
There were a couple for me:
I was young when Alien came out, but my grandfather had it on VHS soon after. Ermagherd. Still one of my favourites films.
Xtro.
But there's one I'll never forget. A woman on a boat, with a metal bucket tied to her belly, with a heat source underneath it, that contained a rat. The rat would do anything to escape the heat... and the film showed the process. I was probably 10 at the time, and it's an image/predicament I'll never forget. No idea what the film was called.

The first Friday the thirteenth when i was 15 or so. My parents didn't even allow me to watch the news or any movies aside from a few cartoons, so i was shocked.

Casino.
That scene at the end with the bats... Still haunts me to this day.
A Nightmare on Elm Street. I think I was ten? That was not a good night's rest.
The Silver Bullet. That Werewolf scared me soooo much as a kid.
Mine would have to be Hollow man (2000) it was on TV at the time and for some reason as a kid watching the shifting both the animal and the human scene where they turn invisible where the skin disappeared then his muscles and veins, was absolutely terrifying, I don't remember well but my parents said I wouldn't let them sleep for weeks.
Brain Dead was plenty disturbing to me when I was a kid. Still one of my favourite movies and now I understand that it's a hilarious comedy, not just a gross out fest although there is plenty of that too lol
The Blob (80s version), The Thing, and House. The first two still hold up really well but the third one I rewatched as an adult and it was so stupid I was embarrassed I had been so terrified of it as a little kid.
I was a late teenager when it came out, but I got incredibly horrified once I saw the poster for My Little Pony: Equestria Girls. Seriously, who knew turning ponies into humanoids could end up looking so uncanny?

I joined my older brother when we was watching the zero boys on VHS.
I would have been around seven at the time and some scenes were a little too much.
spoiler
The suffocation scene is the one that stands out.
Hereditary. I’m old and I still insist I am too young to watch it.
Nothing probably haunts me to this day but there were some horror anthology series that were pretty harsh when I was little. I also vaguely remember a movie about some creepy doll. I don't think it's Child's Play, but just about any creepy doll would do, though.
The Horror Show. That's when I decided it wasn't a good idea to watch unlabled VHS tapes from the basement.
