Ya, before cable, if it was on TV, basically parents didn't think they had to worry. My folks didn't want us kids watching Soap for a time, but never restrictions on horror. I'd watch horror films with my mom all the time. Oddly, my folks took the family to see Jaws when I was only 6. I didn't want to dangle my legs over the bed that night.
