The first Ghost busters movie

I saw scenes of it at six years old and some of them were really scary if you are too young. For weeks I had nightmares about chairs grabbing me with demon arms or demon dogs trying to eat me.

The ring, when I was 11. I was scared for years

American News

Arachnophobia​

It doesn't actually still haunt me (I'm the family spider hunter) but I did get nightmares for a while from that one.

Moontrap

My Girl. I have a fear of bees because of that movie.

silence of the lambs at like 8. still one if my all time faves but I definitely could've waited a few more years to get into it lol

They showed us 4 Rooms at summer camp when it had just come out on VHS. I was 13 but pretty sheltered and that movie was kind of nuts.

I saw Full Metal Jacket when I was 12. That one took a while to get over.

Fire in the sky. Alien abduction still freak me out

Green Inferno. I’m a huge horror fan and am not bothered by gore, but man that cannibalism was so graphic I can’t shake the images.

Event Horizon when I was 10. I think that recalibrated what the entire concept of fear was in my mind.

I slept over at a friend's house, and we watched The Shining when I was 12. Still haunts me to this day, and I've never re-watched it since.

Doctor Who.

are you my mummy?

"Hush, Hush Sweet Charlotte". In my defense, I was about 6 years old when I saw it.

That Tom Hanks movie where he's stranded on an island after a plane crash when I was 6.

I saw it a day before taking my first plane ride and going over sea.

Jurassic Park, I was 8. Saw it at the cinema and was hiding behind the seats. It still hits a bit hard.

The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover

Aliens. Must have been 12 or so. A boring sunday and my friend's mom drove us to the cinema. (In Germany the movie was rated 16) but we didn't bounce off at the desk. I was not exactly horrified, but so ... thrilled. After that I dived a bit too deep into the H.R.Giger universe, I guess.

I was 4 and my grandma was visiting and was supposed to look after me while my parents went out. They gave her the VHS of the first Terminator. I snuck into the living room and watched a bunch of it without her noticing. Afterwards, all the toy robots had to be taken out of my room because ‘the man with the red eye took his eye out’. My parents were then able to put one and one together.

Nowadays one of my favorite movies, tbh.

Star Trek: First Contact scared me shitless as a kid. They made a fucking Star Trek horror film. As an adult, I'd say 8/10 movie.

A.I. Artificial Intelligence by Steven Spielberg. Not sure if I was too young, but the emotions still haunt me to this day.

The scarab scene in The Mummy

Not exactly a movie, but my older sisters had me watch the original IT mini-series when I was very young and I had clown nightmares for years after.

Event Horizon

i can still vividly picture moments from that movie decades later

I have no clue what the movie was. All I know is that my grandmother was watching it while I was in the same room. I remember being too bored to pay attention at 4 years old or so. Except when I looked over at the screen and saw a man put a gun to his head he pull the trigger. The music went silent after and we got an areal shot of the blood spreading. It left such an impression it’s one of my earliest memories.
