OH GOD! That was another film I refused to watch as a kid.
That scene is pretty damn creepy.

Another one for videogames: Alien 3

I know its based on a horror film, but compared to the other games I had, like Robocop vs Terminator, (loved the "tomato gun"), this game was just really, really damn scary.

It wasn't just the close up of the aliens, (which is incredibly well done), I could get past that, it was the game itself.

It is a really hard game, that fills you with dread.
Those damn aliens can pop out almost anywhere, and they can be hard to kill sometimes, because they can climb walls, squeeze through small spaces.

The game brilliantly conveyed the idea that nowhere was really safe, but you had to look around to free people and get items.

The sound effects and the music just added to it!
