I was terrified of horror movies when I was a kid and even remember calling my parents to come get me when my cousin was going to watch a horror movie while I was having a sleepover with her.
The earliest horror memory I have is seeing a movie that I'm not sure what it was and I haven't seen it since. There was some sort of goo puddle (pink, I think) in the basement of a house and I remember people either going on or coming out of the puddle. It has been suggested that it may have been one of the Amityville movies, 3D perhaps? I was not exactly a willing participant in watching that movie, but it was also at a relatives house.
The first time I chose to watch a horror movie was Child's Play. My dad was watching it and I remember sneaking in behind him and watching. I learned that day that movies weren't all that scary and I've been a fan since.
I only saw parts of those 2 movies. My first full horror movie was the original House on Haunted Hill - one of my dad's old favorites. I still have a soft spot for it to this day.
