there's another thread like this ..

i find them both disturbing because of all the people bragging that they saw these adult horror films when they were 4 or 5.

as a parent it bugs the shit out of me..

there's no way in hell i'd allow my kid to see horror violence at that age ...

my first movie was IT. I was six. I was afraid to look under my bed for a year. :p It was being showed on the television in the afternoon, like 5pm or so. My parents switched it off though when they catched me watching it.

but since then... I've become very twisted :D

i used to see the old b&w horror films thay'd show on saturday afternoons on TV ..
Dr Horrors Mansion of terror - or some such thing - where some local TV host would dress up and introduce these films ..

i was probably 10 or 12 and they scared the shit out of me..
(i used to watch them with my unkle at my grandmothers house after baseball)

the 1st one i saw at the theatre was Tales Fron the Crypt - a uk horror compilation (like creepshow) and it scared me so bad i went into the lobby 1/2 way through.

i was probably 13 - 15

i never saw anything again for years - until i was around 17 - 18 when i went with some friends to an all night horror marathon at a drive in and saw for the 1st time - dawn of the dead, texas chainsaw massacre, the prowler, High Risk (not a horror) and a couple of others i cant remember..

i went from being terrified - to laughing myh ass off as the night progressed ..

i wasnt afraid of any movie after that ..

You said the same thing last time too. I get nothing but bitching from you.

i dont change my opinion from thread to thread

Im not 100% sure, but I think it was the Lugosi version of Dracula. Still one of the best movies ever. Either that or Frankenstien meets the Wolfman, my parents bought both at the same time. I was between around 3-4 at the time...wasnt scared at all:)

First horror movie that scared me was the Blair Witch Project like 8 years later. Most of it was pretty dumb, but the last 10-15 min scared me shitless. Couldnt even watch all of it! [I still feel the same way, actually, but now I can tough it out long enough to see the whole thing:p ]

king kong or valley of gwangi when i was about 5 or 6. i still try to enter a state of mind similiar to then when i watch movies today
Just to enhance the experience, i find it makes a good movie a better experience. First films that scared me shitless were Crowhaven farm and Something evil (both tv movies i think)

Halloween

Holy shit, mine too. But I saw Leprechaun 3, the Las Vegas one. It scared the everliving shit out of me. I still really, really dislike those movies, partly because they suck and I truly don't like them, but also because that little guy gave me the fucking creeps for a week. I especially remember him saying that fucking line: "For playing this trick, I'll cut off your dick!"

(He didn't, though)

I saw this when I was probably 9, at a sleepover, goddamn peer pressure...

Kids just end up watching this stuff. I saw a lot of shit I probably shouldn't seen as a kid (my brother would get out lots of films when he was babysitting me - not really horror but a lot of the 80s gang/action flicks) a lot of childrens movies just didn't interest me. My first horror movie was Friday The 13th which I videoed sneakly off late night TV as a kid.

One of the first movies I saw as a kid (Can't find it anywhere these days if someone could tape me a copy I'd be really greatfull):
