That surreal final boss in Earthbound. And OOT's mini-boss that was surrounded by hands coming from the ground.

I actually found Big Daddies in bioshock to be kind of scary. They themselves weren't scary, but it was them + environment + that bellow that you hear when they're nearby. Especially early on the game, I was terrified of engaging in these guys.

I'd easily say that SA-X from Metroid fusion is up there with the worst and one of the very few monsters that has actually scared me in any game, and the Metroids always makes me panic. I do not want to be in the same "in-game" room as the, And yes I've played pretty much every horror game worthwhile). I'd also like them to include The Many from System Shock 2

Yeah totally, the first time i played it they made me jump, but you get used to them lumbering around if you dont do anything to harm them.

The t-rex in the original adaption of Tomb Raider scared the holy moly out of me when i was a kid. I literally ran into the next room when the screen started to shake because I knew what was coming.

Yeah, although I think Controllers were slightly scarier, especially in Call of Pripyat where the screen would turn yellow/blue if one was near.

No nemesis=fail. You were crapping your pants when you heard the stomps get louder and louder and then the music starts and your like "OH MY GOD GATTA RUN". The siren zombies were scary too. Mainly cause the evil laugh and the fact they never die.

First time playing Super Metroid in Super NES, this mother***** scared the **** out of me when it came out:

As scary as the game is frustrating, this boss fight wasn't as hard but scary once you enter the hallway:

And of course this part:

dead space's divider

when you cut off the limbs of this monster, each individual body part acts as a limb creatue thing
