Not so much because of their appearance, but the expression on their faces and the fact that they occasionally stare straight at the camera so it looks like they're looking directly at me. Their floating added to the effect. All that, combined with their method of carving out hearts with big grins on their faces really completes the creepiness factor for me.
It doesn't really scare me, just creeps me out.
As for actually scary monsters, I agree that the less visible, the scarier. The imagination can usually provide more terror than a makeup artist.

I get more scared by writing than by film, so I'm going to go with the unseen bit.

I watched an interview with Gaiman in which he said Coraline scares adults but not kids.

I think that what I can't see is scarier. Once they actually take a physical form it ceases to work.
