I've read some material and heard presentations from psychologists on possible/likely negative effects of graphic horror on young children, and I wouldn't recommend anyone put young children in front of horror films. No offense.

Nobody put me in front of a horror film. I sought them out, and choose them, on my own (if we don't count TV)... Scooby Doo, Space Giants, Ultraman, Godzilla, every type of Creature Feature TV program (classic horror), library books. None of my bro/sis were into horror except me. My mom didn't join me until years after I was already into horror, for which I think she was "returning" to horror.

Eh, I don't listen to psychologists. They don't know my story
