The Cherub from Doom 3, always scared the crap out of me
I'm with you. I just replayed D3 and I STILL shit bricks around those things. I can tell if they're nearby so I just use the classic "get everything" code and spam BFG shots until I'm absolutely sure they're all dead.
Also, back in the day a few bosses from Majora's mask creeped me out. The giant worm things were pretty weird looking, and they had the annoying habit of popping out of nowhere. Granted you had the giant's mask, but if that wore off I'd dodge-roll between erupting pillars of angry worm demon until I found enough green pots to get my MP back up to where I could smack them around again.
The final boss was the scariest, mostly because of a few factors that brought it all together:
1: first your standing in a field. on the moon. okay, now you're standing in a room with pulsating multicolored walls with no exits. and the crazy mask thing is locked in there with you. FUUUU-
2: It makes noises like something I'd expect to hear in Exmortis. Even with the Uber death link mask thing, the boss would still be faster than you and waited until your panicked mind started looking for him until he back-attacked you.
3: each form looked weirder than the last. First it's a mask with tentacles. Then it grows long limbs resembling those damn wackyinflatablearmflailingballontubemen, and then it bulks up, grows a Zalgo-looking head, and its hands turn into giant tentacle whips. Not enough firepower in the world.
Fuck, I'd still getting creeped out just writing about it.
