The Indianapolis monologue, the most chilling scene in the film.

Scary as hell. It sets up every subsequent scene. The "I'll never wear a life preserver again." line is prescient. And we know right then what that means. Given his obsession, Quint will inevitably become shark bait.

I saw Jaws in the theater on opening night, not having seen any advance publicity or previews.
Oh my God was it terrifying! Had no idea what to expect, but it was great.

The winner was the opening scene of Jaws.

I agree with that. Monsters, vampires, zombies, etc., don't really scare me because they don't exist. Sharks do.
