What film scared you the most as a kid?

[weringo]

Independence Day

The aliens in that scared me too

 

[rancid-a]

The Burning (1981) - first experience of boobs n blood

I watched The Shining when i was about 9, and it scared the hell out of me. It was the twins that did it. It's actually my favourite movie of all time now, probably because no other film iv'e seen has had the same shock value. Apart from Visitor Q.....

Same here, I don't think any other film has caught the atmosphere of it. The silence was creepy and the scene in the maze was weird. You never knew if he was catching up to them or not and when he froze clutching the axe his eyes terrified me. The closest film I've seen to living up to the book.

Hellraiser - pinhead gave me the fear.

salems lot

[GSXRMovistar]

The Vindicator (1986), I was ten at the time and I watched it with my older cousin, scared the crap out of me and gave me nightmares.

 

[Mark A]

Psycho 2, the scene at the end where his dead mother is rocking in a rocking chair in the window lol.

 

[Edinho]

Salems Lot. The part where Danny Glick is at the window. Jesus I was scared

Think I was about 12 at the time.

When I was older I would have to say Hellraiser, makes the hairs on your neck stand on end.

 

[Gashman]

Alien/Aliens, didn't sleep well for weeks. The concept still scares me to this very day, not helped by all the books i've read from the universe which go into even more horrifying detail. *shivers*

you got my vote on this one

 

[Vasquez]

alien, day of the body snatchers and IT

 

[Morba]

[Davy644]

Jaws the part were he dives under the empty boat

 

[thevet]

re

City of the living dead
An American werewolf in London

[Pigeon_Killer]

Neither scared me while watching them but I refused to go in the sea for months after watching Jaws and couldn't take a dump for days after watching Arachnophobia.

 

[Happy]

Candyman...Candyman...Candyman...

The part where he appears behind some guy, and his hook basically rips him from the stomach upwards. I Was far too young to be watching **** like that.

 

[Dogoid]

American werewolf , poltergeist , the thing

 

[Happy]

The Witches terrified me when I was really young.

I had forgotten about that That would be the first film that terrified me.

 

[Anksy]

Chucky, when i was about 5 or 6.

 

[Morba]

I stayed at a friends and his older brother had Nightmare On Elm Street. We thought we'd watch it. We were 9 and 10. Huge mistake. The scene were Depps character is pulled into the bed and the blood spews out of the matress... ****** me up for WEEKS! Wouldn't get into bed without checking under it. Had to have a light on. I still have nightmares about being pulled into a matress.

haha, snap

Muppet's Christmas, watched it today and remember being scared watching it as kid.

I was probably about 7-8.
