Default Which TV show or film freaked you out?

As a child or young adult, what did you see on tv or on film that freaked you out or even disturbed you.
Mine were the Singing Ringing Tree on TV & The Exorcist

Singing Ringing Tree was creepy, still is.

My folks let me watch "The Devil Rides Out" when I was a kid. My father said when the angel of death appeared the colour drained out of my face. I remember I slept with my father's old police truncheon under my pillow that night, if the angel of death came near me he was getting smacked a good one!

Just a few years ago I was channel surfing and came across "The Grudge", the original Japanese version. First film for a long time that made the hair on the back of my neck stand up.

As a young kid it was monty python, I couldn’t understand what was going on so found it disturbing.

When I was 16 I watched poltergeist, frightened me 5hitless, I still won’t watch horror films to this day, saw a bit of the exorcist a few years ago and I had the horrors at 3am and kicked the ex wife out of the bed!!

I walked out of The Thing at the cinema, when they started dissecting the fused mass of bodies. Fair turned me over it did. I've seen it since but still get ribbed about it.
Wolf Creek is a bit of a shocker.
