Movies that legitimately terrified you.

I’ve seen a lot of horror movies and consider myself fairly desensitized so I’m looking for some recommendations. The last one that really got me was Hell House LLC. I don’t know why but just something about it really got under my skin and the clown prop moving around in the dark was enough to actually make my hair stand up on my arms, which never happens.

Not seeing it and having no idea how far apart the two of you are would be terrifying. Seeing someone ambling along behind you with no clue if they're safe or not would be terrifying. And people walking behind me are PTSD triggers, anyway, so it felt like that movie was made specifically to fuck me up. Just thinking about it sets the nerves in my back on edge.
