I'll go with The Exorcist. The scariest scene for me is when Regan's Mom walks in and Regan is being bounced up and down on the bed and she puts her head back with that gutteral growl while her throat swells up and her eyes roll back in her head.

Although this movie was not technically a "horror" film, per se, but rather a Sci Fi flick, this scene posted below ranks in the Top 5 of "Most Shocking Scenes in Movie History," I think.
(A bit of trivia, no charge, from the DrummerBoy: Director Ridley Scott deliberately did not tell the cast members sitting at the table in this scene what was gonna happen, so he could catch their honestly-scared reactions!)

I will say the scene in Stir of Echoes with Kevin Bacon when he sits on the couch, leans forward to pick up a remote for the TV, sits back and there is a ghostly girl now sitting beside him.

The scene that has scared me the most in a movie is the vampire floating out of the coffin in 1922's silent film "Nosferatu."


Nosferatu (1922) Trailer - YouTube

You can watch the entire movie on youtube. It's really quite good and the special affects are amazing for the 20s.
