Moments in movies that made the hair on your neck stand

(assuming you have hair on your neck)

I'm talking about scenes that provoke the galvanic response, that electric feeling usually accompanying intense fear or a realization that something shocking has happened or is about to happen.

I'll give you two examples from my experience:

Blow Up: When David Hemmings sees the spectral image of an apparent corpse lying behind a hedge in photos he took in a park.

Rear Window: When Raymond Burr's eyes connect with the camera as Jimmy Stewart is watching him as Grace Kelly is being arrested for breaking into his apartment.

Your turn.
