I wish I could remember. I honestly have not the slightest idea. I think the first '18' rated movie I saw at the cinema was Robocop 2 and I felt bad as I wasn't old enough! I guess the first at the cinema was probably something like Freddy's Dead. But I of course had seen hundreds on TV and video before that. I think it was probably some lame kiddie horror I saw first and then stuff like Carrie, Alien and The Thing.

Saw Alien when i was 5. Forever made me the weird individual i am.

First Horror Movie
 

An American Werewolf In London
I was about 3 or 4, made me forever fascinated with horror films and special effects...not to mention completely obsessed with lycanthropy.

It was one of the living dead's. I don't remeber which one, it had to be somewhere between 78 and 80. I just remember being really young between 4 and 6. I covered my eyes through almost the whole movie. I wish a horror movie could still do that to me.

Great thread. I was actually talking to a co-worker about this today. The first horror movie I saw was the original Night of the Living Dead. I was 5 years old. It was Holloween & I try to watch it every Halloween since. I've missed a few but I've watched it almost every Halloween since.

mine was leprecaun. i was like 6 or something, and it scared the crap out of me

Nightmare on Elm St. 2 when I was 7

The bus scene at the beginning has haunted me forever. It is one of my favorite scenes because it was the first one I ever saw. When I watch it now, I know it shoulsnt be that scary, but it still scares the pants off me!

Invasion of the Body Snatchers *1978 version* I was 7. Scared the crap out of me. What made it worse was that I saw it at my grandmothers and she used to have this big usually overflowing, overgrown garden behind her house and she grew ALOT of cabbage. I remember the plants reminded me of the pods. lol I didnt go into her backyard the rest of the summer.

sam what is your age.??
