Well, my favorite is definitely Poltergeist (the first one only).  Not that scary, just a great movie.

I also like Psycho, Halloween and A Nightmare on Elm Street; the originals only, NOT any of the sequels (Dream Warriors was ok) or any of the recent terrible remakes, and of course, the Shining.

But the movie that scared me the most when I was a kid?  Probably an old '78 movie called The Manitou about Native American black magic.
