Probably Stephen King's It. I have always had an irrational fear of clows, even before watching that movie. ****ing clowns.

It never gave me nightmares but IT came pretty close...

The worst thing about that is being lulled into a false sense of security after being told its about a clown that helps people and sure enough it starts with the clown helping a kid whose lost a balloon down a drain so you invest in it then seconds later you run from the screen in previous unexperienced amounts of fear and regret.

Some movies scare me for a long while like the shining.

But when I was young I don't think I had any nightmares that came directly from watching a movie, but I had tons and tons of nightmares and I still have nightmares today.

Jaws.

I'm not near the ocean, but sharks just freaked me out. So I always had dreams I would be eaten by sharks.

Amazingly, Godzilla.

Strange, I was never the least bit scared by any of the dozens of Godzilla movies I'd gobbled up, but one night I had a nightmare about Godzilla rampaging through a cartoon version of Los Angeles while we were trying to get away....

Wait one second...Cloverfield ripped my dreams off!

Why would that scare you as a child?

If anything the adults around you should be fearing you.

Pet Sematary. I hated that movie.jointed

IMO the worst part about that movie is when the little kid is under the bed and slits the guys heels open when he gets out of bed. That made my blood run cold when i first saw that and every time after. I haven't seen that film in at least 10 years but that moment sticks with me...

The worst moment, in my opinion, was when Rachel (the wife) had to feed her sister. Argh, I hated the sound she made.

It, to this day I can't stand the sight of a clown. The Shining scared me half to death when I was in elementary school, as well as Nightmare on Elm Street.

I never saw the movie but the cover of IT made me hate clowns FOREVER.

The Shining gave me one nightmare and that was it. But as an adult - watching the japanese version of the Ring and Ju-on threw me off of scary movies for a loooong time.

When you're 7 years old and see chucky it's impossible to not have nightmares. I couldn't even walk by the fake dolls in the mall when I was a kid, was too afraid.

I dont believe in unecessary gore. I prefer the mental f*** type scary movies. Gore is just gross - not scary.

How can none of you not have nightmares after seeing...The Exorcist...that movie scared me ****less when I was eight. No joke I could not sleep for DAYS after I watched that horror show. Hell, I have friends that straight out REFUSE to watch that movie to this day. The face of that demon sticks with me to this day. You could not pay me enough to watch that movie again, guarantee you that buddy.
