Salem's Lot.

It was forbidden, but on TV, so I'd flip channels to watch it in 30 second clips. It was far more terrifying that way, as I found out later in life; watched all the way through, it was a fairly mediocre film.

My parent’s sex tape that I watched last year.

Fire in the sky. Alien abduction still freak me out

Terminator 2. I saw it when I was 6 or 7 when it came out on vhs. I didn’t want to watch kids movies ever again after that. It was fucking awesome. As far as scarring me, none, people in my elementary school were watching Faces of Death.

Green Inferno. I’m a huge horror fan and am not bothered by gore, but man that cannibalism was so graphic I can’t shake the images.

Cats Eye

The Shining

Pet Sematary

Pumpkinhead

Poltergeist

my parents didn't make an effort to shield me. I was too young for school when I first saw any of these movies

Saw Robocop when I was six. Murphy getting his arm blown to bits haunted me for years.... Until I saw Red Foreman years later, then I was ok

I was 4 and my grandma was visiting and was supposed to look after me while my parents went out. They gave her the VHS of the first Terminator. I snuck into the living room and watched a bunch of it without her noticing. Afterwards, all the toy robots had to be taken out of my room because ‘the man with the red eye took his eye out’. My parents were then able to put one and one together.

Nowadays one of my favorite movies, tbh.

My parents had the Killer Klowns from Outer Space VHS and I was too scared to watch it as a kid. It wasn't until my mid 20s I actually got to watch it and realize its very much a comedy and not scary at all.

Birds.. 30+ years later I'm still always a bit creeped out by them, especially sea gulls.

"Hush, Hush Sweet Charlotte". In my defense, I was about 6 years old when I saw it.

Moontrap

I think I was ten when a friend and I asked his big sister if we could watch with her. We could, but I still think A Nightmare on Elm Street was a bit too much for me back then.

Watership Down.

Poltergeist

My Girl. I have a fear of bees because of that movie.

I slept over at a friend's house, and we watched The Shining when I was 12. Still haunts me to this day, and I've never re-watched it since.

The Day After

I ain't been nuked yet, but you never know...

Life of Brian

The Deer Hunter

Gremlins

The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover

Idk what it was called but there was a movie where a group of people got trapped in a flooded underpass that I watched at 7 or so that gave me recurring nightmares for years.

Also I saw Munich in theaters when I was 13 because my mom thought it would be an informative historical film and we ended up having to sneak out (I’ve only left a movie once since then! Some terrible christmas comedy).
