The last unicorn. That red bull gave me the creeps for months
The ring, when I was 11. I was scared for years
I saw it around the same age and can still remember seeing that dead girl’s swirly face in the closet. Overall I didn’t think it was too scary overall but that scene has always stuck with me. I was exposed to a lot of this type of stuff as a kid with siblings 8-10 years older than me and can remember watching Tales from the Crypt several years before this, so horror has never really frightened me apart from the first 85% of Hereditary.
In scrolled so far to find this and fuck yeah that messed me up, was way too young and my sister terrorized me with it
That movie scared the hell out of me when I was in High School. I crashed someone else’s date to see it.
Kids, the movie from the mid 90s where a New York teen is trying to bang virgins and spreading HIV. Freaked me out.

The Mangler. It’s a B horror movie and some of the graphics, which I won’t spoil, were more than my 7 year old brain could reconcile.
Jurrassic Park
Glad to see I’m not alone. I seen the movie when I was about 4 and had nightmares of raptors for two decades.
The Shining
Life of Brian
The Truman show
So much existential dread
Spaceballs
…why?
Not entirely sure. “Haunts” is a little generous tbh, just kinda weird and fever-dreamy for a very young me.
Just seeing pictures of Freddy Krueger in the TV timetable magazine (whatever do you call those?) scarred me for life and had me imagining him under my bed.
Tv Guide
As a too young kid I saw the scene of him grabbing the boy and pulling him inside the bed and then blood sprayed out of the bed. And uh… 40 years later it still affects me. Yeah, don’t show that stuff to kids, people! It does affect them even though they’ll never talk about it!
Poltergeist
The Fly
hahah same ! must have been 5 or so. I distinctly remember a woman entering the appartment/lab and Goldblum going “hi, whatsername” while all glued to the ceiling like a proto-fly. These two seconds have been chasing me for thirty years.
Same here. 🤮😵💫
Jaws.
Titanic.
I now fear most bodies of water.
Jaws is a lesson about the shark’s house
:D
I hadn’t seen that one–funny. Seriously, though, Jaws is about human greed/unethical behavior and relationships. I consider it a drama more than a creature feature.
Jaws was scary because of shark.
Titanic was scary because of iceberg.
Water did nothing wrong.
Nope. I’m afraid of it. And it’s 2025 so that means we ban it. No more water!
Water did nothing wrong.
What do you think icebergs are made of?
Ice, duh. It was planted by the CIA, anyway.
Wow, I never knew the CIA faked building the Titanic.
sharks ?
Underworld
I was like 8. Scared the shit out of me
Also, girls in leather
Sometimes I wonder if seeing the Masked Magician as a child was a stepping stone to my interest in women. I’ve rewatched clips of it as an adult. Why was it so horny? As a kid I remember cool magic tricks. But like… Why the industrial BDSM looking sets and constant comments about the women’s bodies? I guess that was just more “normal” then. But then again maybe it wasn’t, I remember hearing that Penn has a problem with that guy because he’s a creep? Who fucking knows.
