The concept of something that can eat planets.

That is rather chilling, isn't it? We have no defense against the destruction of our homeworld, and the Earth is the thing I care about most in the universe (along with our sun and moon, I suppose). It's horrifying.
Okay, here's a proper fear: the concept of the Other Gods and the Great Old Ones of the Cthulhu mythos. back when I first saw the original Cloverfield trailer, the idea that it might be Cthulhu (ridiculous, I know- he's sleeping in the Pacific, not the Atlantic) risen and returned to claim what is his from we pathetic mortals, made it genuinely chilling.
