The guy ripping his face off in Poltergeist freaked me out as a kid...
I forget the name of the movie, but a woman was raped by a ghost, that disturbed me.
And although I only remember bits and pieces, Don't be Afraid of the Dark is one movie that made me afraid of the dark...

Snow falling and night falling fast, oh fast
In a field I looked into going past,
And the ground almost covered smooth in snow,
But a few weeds and stubble showing last.
The woods around it have it--it is theirs.
All the animals are smothered in their lairs.
I am too absent-spirited to count;
The loneliness incluces me unawares.
And lonely as it is, that loneliness
Will be more lonely ere it will be less--
A blanker whiteness of benighted snow
With no expression, nothing to express.
They cannot scare me with their empty spaces
Between stars--on stars where no human race is.
I have it in me so much nearer home
To scare myself with my own desert places.
Desert Places--Robert Frost
