I saw the 1982 version of The Thing when I was, like, 6 on HBO and had nightmares for almost a year. I’m 45 now, and that film still freaks me out!
When you were SIX!? C’mere…
(((HUGS)))
awww!
yeah, it really fucked me up. my poor little brother saw Poltergeist around the same age, and it fucked him up for years...
Have you rewatched it recently? It freaked me out the first time but after that it felt more campy.
No, and now I won’t. It was just so perfect that I don’t want to ruin it.
I watched return of the body snatchers when i was around 8. The movie itself doesn't scare me anymore at all, but the feeling i had when i had when i had to run home at night still haunts me.
