The Exorcist.....nightmares for years. I still can't watch it.

Then there was some movie they showed in kindergarten where some kid chases a red balloon around. Don't remember anything other than the feeling I got watching it.
 
The Philadelphia Experiment. Now it seems ridiculous but hey I was like 10 years old and it was awe inspiring.
 
ALIEN. And it disturbed me so much that I couldn't sleep well for years.

Saw it around 1985 in a movie theatre, I was eight years old.

I remember that one.

Here's another: The one where the guy gets annoyed by a spring, and wishes that all the springs in the world would vanish. He gets his wish, and along comes this animated guy who keeps saying "noooo springs!" I think MST3K did a thing on it.

Creepy.

I also saw Night of the Living Dead when I was like 8... That freaked me out at the time.

Never Ending Story, it had a popular theme song and who could ever forget that big dog.

Yes lol! Same one for me (if we're refering to American films hehe).
 
most memorable...dunno...maybe TMNT?

I do remember this one time sitting in my grandfathers house watching a kung fu movie. This guy did this move where he put his hand on this guys stomach and twisted it. He was pretty much dead. Even to this day i still joke around with my brother with that move....lol..silly kung fu movies.
 
Survive, aka Supervivientes de los Andes about the Rugby team that crashed in the Andes mountains.

Just something about being 10 years old and seeing flesh being ripped from someone's back to be eaten that makes an impression.

Wasn't it called Alive in the US?

My grandma let me watch Texas Chainsaw Massacre when I was 10. That freaked me out for weeks!
