Wow I agree with so many of your picks. I haven't seen the Exorcist the extended version, but that head roll thing didn't scare me as much as I thought it would. Probably had already anticipated that from what I'd heard.
- Definitely the twins in the hallway in The Shining, I spent the next few nights wishing I hadn't been so stupid as to get that image in my head in the first place.
- I agree with Thunder Chunky. I hate clowns as well, since I was a little kid. I'd hoped to overcome my fear by watching IT, watched the first 15 mins without audio and still freaked.
- There's also a movie I don't know how many have seen, stars Shannen Doherty titled Almost Dead, where she plays a girl haunted by the ghost of her dead mother. The scene is where she's running and decides to take refuge in a church. When she looks up from her prayer, her ghostly corpse of a mother with rotting skin, and sunken eyes is looking back at her all gleeful with a rat crawling out of her mouth! I can't get that face out of my mind till now for like almost 10 years!
- The last scene from Misery where Paul Sheldon is in a cafe and imagines Annie Wilkes coming to him with a knife also haunts me at times.
- And this isn't from the movies but there's a theatre play in London that I caught titled Woman in Black about a house with a dark secret. In all the posters, brochures and theatre guides do they feature only two men and their props, but during the show you get a glimpse of a ghostly woman's pale white face in a completely black suit appearing and disappearing, till you believe you've really seen a ghost. There's a scene where she appears in a little girl's room on a rocking chair, rocking it harder and harder till it seems she'd fly off the chair but she doesn't. I couldn't sleep all night after that.
- Also I don't know if this is the right place to post this, but a scene that spooked me out very recently was the video of Nick Berg's beheading. Now that was scary beyond measure.
