Alright, line up and admit what movie\'s use to scare you when you was a child and why... Oh and you wussies still scared by a certain movie can mention it also.
:D
- First off, let it be known I was raised on horror movie\'s. I was also raised with a mother who thought scaring the living hell out of me was the greatest thing ever (Capcom can vouch for me on this). She would make sock puppets and tell me they was going to eat my stomach out. At one point we lived near a cementary, my dear mother would wait \'till I was asleep after watching a scarey movie (sometimes just randomly) and she would sneak outside...Sneak to my window, and then make odd noises outside and various things. It never failed. She would also pretend to be dead when I would come home from school. So, I was raised in a very morbid family.. Which could also explain my love for horror movie\'s, crude pranks and an odd sense of humor. With that said, let me begin my list.
- Child\'s Play - I have a fear of dolls. There, I said it. Fact is, I cannot go to sleep in a room if there are any dolls in it. It all comes back to my mother and her f**kin\' sock puppets and stories about dolls coming to life. I\'ll never forget when I was little trying to watch this film and never making it through it. I would always chicken out and have nightmares for weeks at a time. I now own the DVD and while I can sleep after watching it, I must say, some of the scenes still send chills down my spine. Not due to the fact that it is a movie masterpiece, but all due to my traumatic childhood.
- The Amityville Horror - Yes, I know it was all fake. Yes, I know it wasn\'t that good of a movie. I also know I was raised highly religious and part of the religion was the fact that if you watched films such as this (and at one point this film was singled out in the religion) you was inviting demonic powers into your home. I remember it was one of the few films I would watch just to get a thrill. Doesn\'t do it for me anymore , unless I\'m really sleepy, then for some reason, I get a slight creepy feeling when watching it. I also blame this on my mother, as she raised me in that cult (Jehovah\'s Witnesses).
- Nightmare on Elm Street - I remember this one so well. My dear mother telling me that Freddy was in the TV (remember there was a TV show). Not only that, but trying to convince me that it was possible for someone to be in your dreams (which....I believed). The infamous waterbed scene also scarred me, as my parents owned a waterbed and so did I later on. I happily say though, I got over this trauma.
I\'m sure Capcom can chime in with his fear of zombie\'s and graveyards (also related to my mother as she damaged him mentally also).
-
I will most defintley attest to his mother.
Night of the Living Dead the original. Though I am finally over it. I refuse to go into funeral parlors.
-
The Thriller music video. All the monsters were scary but mostly because I was a little boy.
-
The Beatles Yellow Submarine movie, seriously scared the crap out of me and still gives me the heeby jeebies.
-
Willy Wonka scared me, you know, when they go into the tunnel.
-
Childs Play, Children Of The Damned, Edward Scissorhands.
-
Fear Factor:Human humiliation for money:Only in America :p
(kind of off topic:D)

First Nightmare on Elm Street. I was young when I first saw it. The new house we just moved into was still settling (wood was expanding etc) and it\'ll make the noises just like in the movie. The little flicking noises, man it would scare the shit outta me.
There was another movie, about this thing that lived in shadows and couldn\'t go into light. Can’t remember the name. Not the tooth fairy one. But a lot like it freaked the shit outta me too.
None of it effects me today though... "flick" what was that? :eek:
-
When I was akid, I was scared to death by "Night of the Living Dead". So flesh eating zombies was it.
-
Any scary movie...
Elm St, Friday the 13th...
Sci Fi flicks like Alien, Predator, and even V...
-
Oh yeah...
Currently, the Japanese Ringu has made me think twice when looking at that certain household object...
But, I love this story, bought the Japanese quadrilogy, and am currently seeking the Korean version...
-
Yea, when I was a kid I didn\'t have any older brothers to toughen me up so I was a sissy with any scary movie for a long time.
-
Friday the 13th and Jaws 3D!!! Woah, that shark\'s gonna git me.
-
Pet Cemetary: Scariest part had to be when the wife talked about her freakishly weird sister.
Poltiergeist: Don\'t remember much about it, but I remember it scaring the crap out of me.
The Exorcist: Watched it by myself when I was 4. Great parenting.
-
Poltergeist: The most scary part was the bed when it vibrated.. I was afraid of my bed after that. ;)
Its still a pretty scary movie.
It: I\'ve hated clowns ever since.
-
I only scary thing that I remember was when I was at the movies.. I don\'t know what we were watching, but it was some guy that was covered in cockroaches. That scared the hell outta me.
-
The only movie I can remember that scared me bad was Night of the living dead the original.
I remember Weltall watched The Blob and cried himself to sleep.
-
Ring scare dth ehell out of me.It didnt affect me much when I saw it.But a couple of days after I was scared of my TV at night when I was alone,Even mirrors.
-
I don\'t think i\'ve seen a truly scary movie since stanley kubrik\'s The Shining.
However, I remember when i was a kid there was a movie about a boogeyman that I loved to watch...though i don\'t remember exactly what it\'s called. All I remember is the dad pulling the boogeyman\'s green footprints off the walls.

Wow, I need to call Webster.. I think they have a new definition for wussy.. ;)
I forgot about the shining. I remember the blood coming out of the elevator. That use to be in a lot of my nightmares growing up as a kid.
That was in the shining wasn\'t it? I can\'t remember.
-
Alien movies used to scare me too, not the series but movies like Communion, grey type aliens abducting people from their homes, found it much scarier then monsters or ghosts and whatnot.

Well after I saw the movie I became a Ring maniac.I ve spent hours and hours in the internet trying to find everything that had to do with the ring.I spet so many hours that it started messing with my mind.
-
What is there on the internet? Is it an old urban legend or is it just crap posted after the movie came out?
-
Candyman - I saw this at an overnight camp when I was 12(13?). We were scared shitless. I watched it recently but it was only scary thinking about how scared I used to be.
IT - I don\'t know anyone that wasn\'t scared of this movie when I was a tyke.
The Serpent and the Rainbow - I saw this when I was 10 years old and was summarily terrified. Not scared of it now but still creeped out.

Its not that it sais anything particular unique in the internet.The movie affected me little. when I saw the movie.Spoiler:I dont mean it made me believe Sadako can come out of the TV set or anything. Its just that I ve spend so many hours for the movie specifically that I couldnt think of anything else except from the Ring.So it started messing with my mind and created a sense of fear despite the fact that I knew it was just a movie

The only thing that actually, really bone chilled scared me was aTV show. Its name ; Tales from the Crypt
That guy is ****ing horrid.

Good times. Loved that show
Aliens
Poltergeist
Id say Session 9 but i was too old to be scared by that time.
Jurassic Park: used to have a thing with dinosaurs and the thought of them coming back was just....damn. Its a thing of the past (no pun intended)
The Ring was not scary-Never saw Ringu
The shining was a great movie-didnt scare me
Alien movies used to kinda creep me out. That and less moronic robot, scifi flicks.

Hey, mark your spoilers, dude...
Not everyone has seen any one version of Ringu...
-
I guess I\'m the only one who was scared by Halloween as a kid. I used to have nightmares about that for weeks. Just that scene where he was behind the couch and he sat up... freaked me out.
-
Scream 1.
I saw it when I was in grade 4 and was like WTF. I\'ve never seen a "scary" movie before so naturally I was a bit freaked out. The opening scene was just brutal I thought...a girl just running hopelessly for her life to no avail. That movie was actually realistic too I thought and I was seriously scared to sleep for a while after that.

What kind of self-respecting grown man gets scared of movies?
I envy you. I watch them to get scared, but none of them truly scare me anymore.

Event Horizon. The one and only movie that scared me real bad. A year ago I watched it and it made me wonder how could it scare me.
