The one that always gets to me is Maddy's vision of Killer Bob after the James/Donna/Maddy Trio recording session is interrupted by Donna running off. Bob just kind of float-walks in the front door, and then turns and heads straight at Maddy like a nightmare come to life, crawling over everything, including the couch, etc. Part of what gets to me in that scene is spooky Bob juxtaposed against the shell-pink normalcy and neatness of the Hayward living room, and the camera just keeps watching him getting closer and closer...
Truly creepy!
I also think that Windom Earle's momentary chalk-white skin and blacked-out teeth when he brings back the bag of spiders for Leo is fairly unsettling. The camera kind of jumps right into his face, and the blackness of his mouth makes me think about him either physically or metaphorically having drunk deeply from the pool of oil in Glastonbury Grove.
