I couldn't help myself but reply with a really long list. It has been a long time since I saw a scary movie, or one that scared me anyway, so the award is gonna have to go to Rec (2007), and prior to that The Descent (2005). Room 1408 (2007) also really scared me at the time, and I discovered when rewatching it last year that there are multiple different endings depending on the version you get.
Other honrouable mentions:
The Blair Witch Project
Event Horizon
Alien
Aliens
The Ring
The Grudge
Eraserhead while high as a teenager was genuinely traumatising
Arachnophobia if you are at all scared of spiders
Jaws when the head pops out
It (1990)
28 Days Later
28 Weeks Later when he pops his wife's eyes out
The Dead Outside is another one that I was too high when watching to remember the plot of, but it was also very traumatising
Deathwatch is set in the trenches of WW1, and the scariest thing is other people

Special shout out to American Horror Story opening credits, which never fail to make me feel deeply unsettled
If I am really honest though the things that scare me the most are movies like Hostel where people are getting tortured ;_; the guy getting his achiles tendon sliced through stuck with me for a very long time
