Movies that scarred you as a kid

“It” the mini series for me. Tim Curry as pennywise will never leave me.

I don’t think about it as often as I think about Tim Curry but the scene where she crab walks down the stairs shook me up pretty good.

The only two movies that got to me were Amityville Horror (Jodie the Pig) and the original Evil Dead.

I have been thinking on this thread for awhile…and even googled some scary movies to help me remember. But I honestly can’t think of any movies that truly scared me as a child. Sorry.

my parents took me and my little brother to a party . i was about 10 years old. they put on a horror movie called ‘demented’. it was a rape and revenge horror film. during the gang rape scene i asked my mother what are they doing to her? she said ‘they are making love honey’.

that movie screwed me up.

Same with me, the movie that scared me the most was “Raiders of the lost ark” the snakes! I was afraid I would wake up and have snakes all over me.

I saw the terminator movies while I was very young. The first time was scary but after that we wanted to watch them all the time.
