For me it was Event Horizon, that was scary as hell when I was a kid, I had nightmares for months.

I can't believe I just scrolled through 77 responses and nobody said "Poltergeist" yet!

Creepy clown on the chair, monster unter the bed, tree tapping at the window, coffins in the pool, whispers in the dark ("Get... out..."), little girl staring at static on the TV, etc. So much of it has become tropes now, but that's because they were so effective the first time!
