"it isn't scary"

(Anonymous) 2013-10-19 08:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Says you. That movie scarred/scared me for life. I'm still nervous walking by storm drains. And shower drains and sinks made me nervous for a really really long time.

Oddly enough, never scared or clowns at all.

But then, I snuck in and watched it when I was very little. Maybe if I had only watched it as a teen or adult it wouldn't have been so scary or left such a mark.

I watched it as an adult and it does have some creepy parts. Not Tim Curry, though. He's hysterical.

Yeah, I watched Child's Play when I was around 3ish, and I just can't with Chucky now. I forced myself to watch it when I was around 17 or 18, and I could objectively see that it really wasn't that scary, but man, did I have the spooks for about a week afterward.

I was about ten or eleven when the original version of The Amityville Horror came out. I have no idea what my mother was thinking but she took me to see it. I was so terrified, I ran out of the theater and for years--literally, years--I had a hard time going to bed. When I did go to bed, I would stay up past 3:15 am until I was sure nothing would happen. I read the book obsessively, and was spooked by concepts like "sewing room," "master bedroom," etc.

Fast-forward to 2000. I rented the movie and forced myself to watch it all the way through. I still had to stop several times but was able to get through it. And objectively--nothing really happens! There's never any big reveal in that movie, and I think it relies way too much on the selling point of Based On True Events (which is definitely arguable, IMO).
