bump cause I just remembered my sisters taking me to see this when I was 6, the one where they go to hell. I'd actually blocked out that memory.

Chucky especially, but everything really... I was a punk kid . I ran out of the Ninja Turtles movie bcuz o Shredder . I embrace most o that stuff now, especially Chucky, scaring future generations w/ my fly Chucky t-shirt I just got b4 Halloween .

E.T. gave me nightmares for years. Everything about him creeps me out. How he talks, how he moves, how he looks like Gail Platt from Coronation Street. *shudder*

I think it was the theme music that freaked me out.

Nuclear war drama Threads did the same when I was 15...! [Edited 10/10/16 11:47am]

late comment: i have no problem seeing how threads would have an impact on someone at any age. that movie is bleak.

.

the only thing i can really remember scaring me as a kid is not a show or movie, but the illustrated book that came with jeff wayne's war of the worlds lp. my brother had a copy, and i always found those pictures incredibly frightening.
