There is a scene in Echoes that made me go "AHHH! SHIT!!!” All of the following happens in the same shot without any cuts: Kevin Bacon sits down on a sofa. He then leans forward to pick something up from the table in front of him (camera follows him). When he leans back again there is a girl sitting next to him all of a sudden. The whole thing is accompanied by a very effective music cue. There is a similar scene in In the mouth of madness with the additional twist that it happens twice which caught me completely off guard: Sam Neill sits on a sofa, looks to the left, sees the ghost next to him, wakes up screaming from the nightmare, looks to the left, there's the ghost again, wakes up once more, looks to the left, this time no ghost. Creepy!
