Amityville Horror when I was 5.
It was on after flying high at the drive ins. I was too scared to watch and ended up in the back on the station wagon and fell asleep.

i can't remember how old i was when i saw my first horror flic or what the movie was. i know the second TCM scared me shitless.
i also continued the tradition and started my nephew off young, he was two and his first film was nightmare on elm st. it was love at first sight. kinda makes me wish i knew who started me off and what the movie was (turns head and pouts).

thats insane !
I would never let my kid (who's 4) see anything worse than ghostbusters or gremlins .. you can tell he likes the scary stuff but then the next thing you know ... he's afraid of the dark .. or has weird worries. kids have to be able to understand the difference between fantsy and reality before being exposed to serious horror .. and no one at 2 or 4 or even 6 is equipped to see Nightmare on Elm Street.. they might love it but its gotta have a detremental effect down the road....

naw, not really, he still watches mostly kid shows. the mummy (a tamer feature) is one of his favorates, and its not like we leave him alone in the room or anything; that would be considered mental abuse or something. we all sit around and watch this stuff, nightmare just happened to be the first one to catch him.

when my kid was a baby .. you could watch stuff and he wouldnt take notice ..
then i noticed once that he was affected when he was a little older ... he would be sitting in his little flying saucer and when things got tense he started to spin madly around looking distressed .. so i immediately turned it off.. its not hard to see how horrifying images can stay throughout your life so i want to make sure that until he has a firm grasp on reality that his experiences are as positive as possible... until he is at a maturity level where he can understand - its just a movie. at 2 years old kids think animals can talk from what they see on TV ! i know they always cant be protected .. he's still upset by the death of one of our cats .. and you have to be looking carefully to see it .. there are subtle signs rather than his coming out and saying anything ... I'm looking forward to when i can show him all of the cool horror movies i have and watch them together (if he even likes them) but i dont want him to have the exposure until he's quite a bit older.

flying saucer?
anyway makes sence that your would be looking out for your offspring, i on the other hand have none, so i wouldn't understand the concern; although i do see your point. i just never thought of it along those lines, don't get me wrong, its not like horror is all he watchs when we hang out. he also likes gremlins, the hobbit, and shreck so he does get to see more apprriate films when he stays over. he always chooses, not me.

I was 3 when i saw my first. I came downstairs about 6 in the morning to watch some tv when a movie called "Squrm"was on, a movie about killer worms. I was all excited when something cool and horrifying happend. Then it went from there. As for having kids, when i ever have a kid he/she is totally getting fucked over with Playstation and Horror films.
