Horror: In "Alien" when the gang is sitting at lunch, thinking everything is over, and the guys just goes convulsive and spews an alien monster out his chest. It's the transition from relative normalcy to "holy crap" that makes it so effective.
Comedy: In "The Blues Brothers" the many times Carrie Fisher shows up, apparently out of nowhere, and for no apparent reason, trying to kill Jake and Elwood without success no matter how powerful the weapon or device she employs. The sheer overkill, combined with her utter failure to do anything more than get Jake and Elwood's suits dusty, makes it work.
Action: In "Batman Begins" when Batman's hardcore personality is captured so well by Christian Bale when he hauls the corrupt cop up on a wire and the guy says "I don't know, I swear to God!" and Batman screams "SWEAR TO ME!" in his face and lets him think he's about to fall to his death. Batman's not a nice guy, was never supposed to be, and that kind of sadistic play would be exactly the kind of thing he'd do.
Drama: In "Schindler's List" when Schindler collapses in guilt at not having found a way to save one more person, just one more person, if only he'd been willing to give up one more thing, anything, to save a life. His inability to see the good he'd done because his vision is clouded by guilt at having some material possessions left to him, knowing they might have saved another life, was powefully saddening.
Romance: In "When Harry Met Sally" when Billy Crystal confesses that he really had been in love with her all along, for all her traits, good and bad, right down to the bit about ordering salad dressing on the side, we really feel his own surprise at just how different his life turned out than he thought it would. Having never believed men and women could be friends, and probably never having believed in love, he discovers that he had felt it for years and simply not let himself see it, noticing every detail of Sally's foibles and strengths, and totally not noticing that his keen observations meant more about his own feelings than he knew.

Drama: To Kill a Mockingbird: When they are at the courthouse at the trial. At the end of the first day when the kids are upstairs watching. Atticus packs up his stuff for the day and walks out alone. As he is going by Calpurnia tells Scout, "stand up miss jean louise your daddy is passing by."
Romance: Pride and Predjudice (old or new): When Darcy shows up and declares his love for Elizabeth for the first time it is so shocking. He's just tortured. It's satisfying because till then he's been such a jerk.

9 songs- just about any scene. Not a very good movie though, but some intense scenes. Actually kinda borderline pornographic.

Don't watch horror
Comedy: In Spaceballs when the alien comes out of the guys chest Alien style and starts singing "Hello my baby, hello my honey, hello my rag-time gal..." That's absolute gold.
No memorable action moments for me.
Drama: In 'The Game' when Michael Douglas falls in through the glass roof and all is revealed...
Romance: All of The Notebook
