Movies that scared you as a kid

[McLovin]

What do they like to be referred to as??

dwarf? elf? midgy? i don't know...

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

:lol:

What do you do when you have to walk past a little person when you are out or god forbid being served by one when shopping?

I put my girlfriend between me and them to act as a barrier. Or i pretend i didn't see them and hope they will go away. Both of these defensive manouvers have worked to this day, however I don't know how much longer i have until they can figure out how to get me.

Evil Dead freaked me out

Now i see it as a comedy

 

[chileman]

The Sound of Music.......I mean what is freakier than the Hills are alive with the sound of music :sarcasm::crazy:


But without trying to show my age....this movie I watched in the 70's with my parents I think was called Cats.....the Cat's killed everyone and I had nightmares for months afterwards.....still hate cats to this day!
Alien was pretty scary as a kid in the cinema too, sat there with my feet up off the ground the whole movie!

what do you do when you're on the dancefloor and a "little person" who was dancing inside your circle gets lost and your mate yells out "WHERE THE f**kS THE MIDGET GONE?" and he's right there?

true story

 

[Liam]

Candyman and Gremlins.

 

[sydraider]

Salems Lot.

Scared the f**k outta me, I watched it again many years later and hurt my ribs laughing.

 

[GC_Gladiator]

In Ghostbusters, the bath tub scene. Absolutely ruined bath time for me as a kid.

And 'The Fly'. Just the fact that he was a giant fly.

I think it was called strays.

Jaws scared me (and others) when I was a kid. Halloween was another one and People Under the Stairs gave me nightmares for a while.

Also, parts of American Werewolf in London scared me but now I crack up laughing when I watch that movie.

A lot of people say Jeepers Creepers but I've never seen it.

 

[MKEB...]

War of the Worlds, god that spooked me when I was a kid.
V another goody
Gremlins (sad but true)

 

[perverse]

it's cliche... but jaws really did frighten the sh*tjesus outta me.

what a great movie. striking fear into the hearts of kids for 33 years and counting.

For anyone who was a kid at the time of Jaws release, did it have an affect on the numbers at the beach or more specifcally going for a swim in the sea?

And did you stop going swimming in the sea for a while?

 

[Caged Panther]

Horror movie called House.

Saw part of it the other week and actually found it to be rather ammusing.

Stopped me for a while and even today I keep a lookout for sharks whenever I'm in the water. Damn you Senor Speilbergo!

We were on holidays in Port Macquire at the time....stuff the beach, we struggled just to get into the motel swimming pool for about a week after we saw it!

"The Witches". The film version of Roal Dahl's legendary book.

Don't tell me that the bald witches, with their evil eyes, long noses and long nails didn't scare the sh*t out of every young kid.
