Movies What film scared you the most as a kid?

[Takes Two To Tango]

For me it has to be Legend. Till this day I still get the creeps of Tim Curry Darkness.

 

[GoodBadHBK]

Walking in on my parents having sex

It was the worst 30 mins of my life

[tabascojet]

The man who saw tomorrow.....end of the world prognostications on a sick day home alone

 

[Contempt]

American Werewolf in London... I think 6 years old may have been a tad young to be watching that.

 

[HHJ]

It was usually particular scenes and anything that scared me made me want to rewatch it. I was always fascinated by anything that scared me.

 

[zapataxiv]

probably the ring / the grudge

followed by Halloween

I watched the big three smashed franchises as a kid but Mike Myers was the only one that was scary

 

[Excelsior]

Jaws. Saw it in 1982 and haven't been in the ocean since.

 

[Zer]

For me it was a movie called The Entity. I was sleeping over my buddies house and unexpectedly his older brother put this movie on. It's about a woman who gets haunted by a poltergeist, but it like rapes her and shit



I'd probably think it's lame now, but that was like my first proper horror movie and I was like 6 or 7 maybe. So at the time I was terrified

 

[Thrawn33]

I was like 5-6...

Return to Oz

 

[Berserker13]

I watched Fri the 13th when i was 6 years old, and nothing

scared me more than the video game snatcher

 

[ColemanwastheGOAT]

Saw this when I was like 5 and it stuck with me for sure.

 

[Papachulu]

This asshole

 

[MidgardSerpent]

Probably Pennywise coming out of the shower sink.

 

[Other]

Candyman for some reason

 

[Lord_Impaler]

The graveyard scene in The Adams Family Movie, where she’s talking about death and how we’re going to die. That was the exact moment I realized I was going to die some day and it horrified me.

I remember feeling that when I read about how the sun would eventually burn out in several million years and I cried and my dad laughed at how long from now that was.

 

[PG29 red0 Jr]

E.T.

Especially the cornfield scene.

 

[TenderLoving]

Silence of the lambs, it was one of the few films that Mom said no to, so of course I watched at a friend's and had nightmares for months of Hannibal coming for me with a cut off face
