Exactly the same! I saw it when I was 8. Also the original Resident Evil movie.

Candyman.

Holy fucking shit, saw it when I was maybe ten years old. I didn’t go into a bathroom for weeks after that, I peed outside against a wall. There was absolutely no way I was going in any room with a mirror.

Not a movie but a series... The highway men or something like that. Sort of a mad max inspired series about guys in a truck and one of the trucks could become a helicopter or something? I think it failed after one season.

Anyway, there was an episode where a UFO crashed, the guy had to transport the pilot alien in his trailer and he had a camera in there and the alien, covered by plastic, sat upright.

Didn't sleep for weeks, still haunts me 40 years later

The Icecream Man. I had never watched a proper horror movie before, I was scared of the icecream van coming around for ages.

Gigi. I loved back when I was a little girl (“leeetle girrrrl”), but rewatching as an adult I was HORRIFIED.

There is a fair bit of mental illness in the family, the early asylum scenes hit a bit too close to home for 5 year old me.

Deliverance.

[–] Kelly@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I joined my older brother when we was watching the zero boys on VHS.

I would have been around seven at the time and some scenes were a little too much.

spoilerThe suffocation scene is the one that stands out.

Hereditary. I’m old and I still insist I am too young to watch it.

[–] Kalladblog@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Felidae

Or whatever the animated movie featuring a gory cat detective story was called.

[–] RandomVideos@programming.dev 2 points 9 months ago

Hannah Montana-specifically an Halloween episode referencing murderous puppets

The Horror Show. That's when I decided it wasn't a good idea to watch unlabled VHS tapes from the basement.
