1.Pet Cemetery.For some reason my parents let me read the book, then I saw the movie.
The sister saying Zelda!

I noped out of the dark for about a week because of that movie.
I think I was about 6 or 7.
3.The Mummy,the scene where some guy gets their skin eaten by beetles.
4.The Grudge.That movie really fucked me up, when I was around 12.
Its a 1984 British docu-drama movie based on the expected realities of the aftermath of a nuclear attack.
Its the darkest, most hopeless, depressing thing Ive ever seen.
6.The Birds.No other film has made so many people scared of air rats.
7.IT(1990).
Definitely made a whole generation afraid of clowns.
I wouldnt go into a room without turning on the lights first for like a year.
9.Coraline that movie hit me deep.
Dad let me watch it at 10 years old.
The line from Hudson: Theyre coming out of the God damned walls!
I laid on my bed that night in one of the purest forms of terror I have ever felt.
Waiting for a xenomorph to come blasting through the plaster to grab me.
Damn orange closet monster/tunnel to Hell.
13.Childs Play.I couldnt walk by Spencers Gifts since they had the dolls in the window.
Sit down just in time for Jason to start hacking up bitches.
15.The Secret of Nimh.Don Bluth really knew how to make kids have nightmares.
That movie was intense and way too dark, and I yet it really stuck with me.
17.Jurassic Park,when the goat leg hits the windshield.
I could watch Newmans face get melted by acid but good lord something about animals always hit me different.
I was still in grade school when I watched that one.
I was afraid of public restrooms/stalls for a few years after that.
19.The Witches… Messed me the fuck up when they turned from normal to their witch form.
20.Return to Oz.The whole thing is insane.
21.Jaws afraid to going in the ocean.Grizzly afraid to hike in forests.
22.Candymanprematurely ended my childhood.
23.Independence Day, when the alien starts moving and then wakes up at the autopsy.
Thats what traumatized my childhood (or one of the things).
Couldnt sleep afterwards and had nightmares about it for a long time.
27.Watership Down.Even though its a comic, it really scared me as a child.
28.Indiana Jones, Temple of Doom.The part where the guy pulled the other dudes heart out.
Ill never forget that.
I watched the movie in its entirety like a year later with my brother.
Movie fucked me up man.
