For me it was Event Horizon, that was scary as hell when I was a kid, I had nightmares for months.
My cousins made me watch John Carpenter’s The Thing when I was eight years old. Assholes.
The movie Saturday the 14th also messed me up for a while, what with the Creature from the Black Lagoon getting into someone’s bathtub through the drain pipes. It may be silly dreck, but it was a bit much for a five year old.
Cats Eye
Raiders of the Lost Ark. 12 year old me had a great time with that movie until people startet to melt…
John Carpenter’s The Thing. I wouldn’t go down to the basement by myself for like three months.
Still one of my favorite movies.
Poltergeist. Fucked me up around static for the rest of my life.
House of wax (1953). Invasion of the body snatchers (1956 and 1978).
Blair witch project. I really thought it was real founded footage
Mars Attacks when I was 6. My parents had the brilliant idea to take me to see it at a drive-in, so larger than life screen, and it was the second film, so I think they probably figured I’d fall asleep and they could stay and watch. Nope. Pretty sure I didn’t sleep for weeks.
