For me it was the Temple of Doom where they lock the girl in the cage and lower it down into the Ican'tevenremember.

I watched the movie the Rock when I was 6.  I didn't really plan on watching it, I just happened to be in the same room as my mom when she was watching it and didn't leave because I was faking sleeping so I could stay up late (kind of confusing back story when i type it out).  Anyway, I think there's a scene where some green ball gets dropped that contains some type of nuclear/poison thing and the guys face just kind of melts off, but not like the Nazi in Indiana Jones.  For some reason, that scared the shit out of me.  This movie also made me think that when a person died in a movie, that was it.  The end.  They were actually dead and I wondered where they put all the dead people from movies.

One year, i think i was nine or ten, i wanted to be the guy from scream from halloween.  My mom thought that if I was gonna be him, i should at least see the movie.  So we watched Scream 2 (i'm pretty sure it was 2, when the fat chick tried crawling out of the dog door in the garage) together one night right before halloween.  Granted, its a terrible movie but i was constantly looking over my shoulder for a few weeks.

All of this makes my mom sound bad, but she did a good job raising me, haha.

Also, I didn't see the Shining til a couple years ago, but I don't think I would have found it scary when i was little, unless you count the scene with the old lady and Shelly Duncan's face.

Shitfuck; you're not even 20!

No!  I'm not old!  I was in high school when that came out.

Disneyland fucking terrified me as a child.

I was seven, eight? I ended up choosing a bunch of horror rides to go on, NOT KNOWING THEY WERE HORROR RIDES. I don't have many good memories of Disneyland. I remember leaving there screaming and crying in terror thinking that I was going to die, because these were fairly realistic things I was experiencing in real life, in real time, not a movie.

Fuck Disneyland.

Yeah, my older brother took me to see that in the cinema and it really broke me. 

Also Young Sherlock Holmes the following year - people hallucinate awful stuff until they die from freaking out, and, yeah, it didn't feel good at that age.  In particular, the scene that's supposed to be comedy value, where Watson's hallucinating he's being killed by animated cupcakes, freaked the shit out of me.  Cuteness turned evil?  Always scary?  I think so.
