Good choice with Heath Ledger--though the performance never scared me so much as wowed me. 
I don't know "The Prestige" so I'll have to check it out to see what you're talking about.

I forgot to mention Henry Fonda in Once Upon a Time in America. Such an unexpected twist!

You're funny, Paul! You probably worked for Vectrocon ... or Magnum P.I.

Waltz can be deeply chilling, and not just as a Nazi.  Hopkins too because he's such a superb talent.  But for me on a more physical level ...

Excuse my American bias, but I'd just been watching some of my old favorite films with acting performances that are hauntingly scary--not monsters or special effects but ACTING!

Name some of your favorite SCARY acting performances.

Here are mine (in no particular order):
Christoph Waltz as Hans Landa in Inglourious Basterds
Edward Norton as Aaron/Roy in Primal Fear
Morgan Freeman as "Fast Black" in Mean Streets
Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lector in Silence of the Lamb
Ray Liotta as Ray Sinclair in Something Wild
Joe Pesci as Tommy DeVito in Goodfellas
Ralph Fiennes as Amon Goth in Schindler's List
Daniel Day-Lewis as "Bill the Butcher" in Streets of New York (and Daniel Plainview in There Will Be Blood)
John Malkovic as "Booth" in In the Line of Fire
Rutger Hauer as "Roy" in Blade Runner
J.K. Simmons as Terrence Fletcher in Whiplash
Javier Barden as Anton Chigurh in No Country for Old Men
Alan Rickman as Hans Gruber in Die Hard
Samuel Jackson as Ordell Robbie in Jackie Brown
