Carrie
The Omen
Halloween

One of these I'm sure

I think that's the one. Holy SNOT that scared the hell outta little me. LOL!!! Showed me alright. hehehe

according to some useless trivia I hold in my head, that green stuff was actually only pea soup!

LMAO!! Tell that to a six year old.

Funny though, it is one of my favorite soups.

..........:canoworms:....

I think it was Rosemary's Baby...... I would of been in my teens

I'm not sure this is actually the first scary movie I saw......

Does Jaws count?

I think I was 8.

Jaws voted #1
 

That is until, "the damn shark is not operational" Spielberg would tell his cast and crew, meaning that a mechanical shark broke down again..

Yup..............:hangloose:

Cujo. My siblings made me watch it. I had to leave. I love dogs too much. I was about 6? And we were on a sleep over at my uncles

I admit, they scared me too and still do. My father took me to a couple of those poor horse and dog movies and we wound up leaving because they'd get hurt, then I'd cry and refuse to watch the rest of the movie, so he stopped taking me to animal movies. I still won't watch movies where an animal gets hurt in it.

"Where the Boys Are" (Connie Francis, 1960 ) ... I was 15 and I knew I'd never fit in.

Rosemary's Baby, Cujo, Jaws, The Exorcist.............. nah.

How about the Original TZ when it came out...the one about the ventriloquist and the dummy. At age 3-4, I was terrified. A little kid with nightly nightmares!? Still have 'em... Don't know that it was just the episode, though.

Most bedtime stories were too scary for me. Main ones being the Grimm "fairy tales". Kids nowadays think Sleeping Beauty is like the Disney version........no, no.

They are bringing Twilight Zone back but I can't remember what network!

Sidebar: My very fav two were Time Enough at Last A henpecked book lover finds himself blissfully alone with his books after a nuclear war & Will the Real Martian Please Stand Up? A flying saucer crashes in a heavy snowstorm somewhere in New England. The police follow tracks from the wreckage to a diner, where a group of bus passengers wait for a bridge to be cleared. There are seven passengers in the restaurant, but the thing is, the driver claims there were only six folks on the bus.

Psycho....the original. I must have been around 2 or 3. Not one of my mother's better judgement calls. And then I remember the Birds....haunted me for life. Again, not one of my moms shining moments. Apparently she was a Hitchcock fan.

The Exorcist (1973)
 

The Exorcist was out in theaters back then, in 1973, when I was 14 years old, but I didn’t see it until much later in life, when I was in my young 30s (the late 1980s, early 1990s).

Music Trivia: Mike Oldfield’s Tubular Bells is probably the most iconic soundtrack of any music track for a horror movie. It took him 2 years to produce it because it was Mike who played each instrument used for this recording. This soundtrack was the first pillar of fortune for that billionaire guy from the UK (Virgin Records, Richard Branson)

Pretty sure it was the Exorcist. Might have been 3rd or 4th grade? But a lot of it went over my head. Birds was in 5th grade. I remember the friend I was with was really freaked out but it didn't bother me. Same with The Fly a few years later. I started reading Stephen King novels when I was way too young, like 6 or 7 years old so my bar was high.

The first time I remember really being scared at a movie was in high school, Silence of the Lambs and Jacob's ladder.

This may not really be considered a horror film, but it was Sybil. I was about 9 and I was terrified that something would happen to me or my baby sister. For years, if I heard my parents get up and go into my sister's room at night to check on her, I would get up and go to the bathroom just to let them know I was watching. I had no reason to think they would hurt her, but it was a compulsion. I should never have seen that movie at that age.

My dad let me watch the original Friday the 13th…..

I was 11.

And it was the week before I went to camp for the first time…………

Oh wow... that was an... interesting choice he made.
