The scariest horror movie jump scenes of all time

what movies can you remember that made you jump right out your seat.
i still think it would have to be jaws for me, when he dives down to the boat and finds the shark tooth then the body pops out, i still jump out my seat today at that bit i dont know why because i know whats coming lol.

paranormal activity gave me quite a few jumps, and halloween.

The stalking scene in Cat People (1942) with the scariest entrance of a bus ever.

Night Of The Demon (1957) when I first saw the demon as a kid.

The Shining "Here's Johnny after each stroke of the axe which is jumpy in itself".

The Burning (1981)the canoe scene (the whole film had been a tease up to this infamous moment)

Friday The 13th-When Jason jumps out of the lake at the end

Oh and 28Days Later (2002) as Godspeeds "Dead Flag Blues" builds up at the beginning up to the car alarm.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

When the guy trips over the step, falls into the doorway and Leatherface appears with the hammer. That still gets me.

Has to be the head-in-the-boat scene from Jaws. I saw the film a few years after it first came out during a re-run at a local cinema when i was young.

That scene made me jump right out the seat.
I watched the rest of the film through my fingers!! What an experience.

John Carpenter's The Thing - when the blood test revealed the imposter.

The Exorcist - the projectile vomiting.

The hospital corridor scene in Exorcist 3-haunts you like a brand in the brain.
