I never watched too many scary movies but one that I remember was "The Grudge"...

To this date, I can still remember The Ring (Japanese version). It was the first Asian horror movie I had seen and that ending......well, it gave me the creeps for a few days.
I don't know how old I was when I watched Texas Chain Saw Massacre at 0:00 am. alone![]()
In my childhood It was really scaring

Looking back, the two films that still have the greatest impact on me are Night of the Living Dead and Alien.
N.O.T.L.D. was grim, depressing and totally lacking in artifice...and in the end everyone dies.
Alien not only featured the classic "chestburst" scene but very cannily keeps the actual alien unseen for the rest of the film so you really have no idea what to expect.
Plus, there is the art of H.R. Giger and Siguerney Weaver in panties...what more can you ask for?

I've read that too...interview with Veronica Car***ight, IIRC.
I was a bartender in D.C. when that film came out.
Up the street was a grand old theater and we used to comp drinks to the staff in exchange for invites to prescreenings.
They would hold midnight shows for the staff before the movies opened and it was always a great time...lots of alcohol and other stimulants- your basic drunken, stoned party in a big theater.
Alien scared the fuck out of the 50 or so people that were there...we stumbled out into the early morning in shock.
Ah, good times.
