Jaws was another one I hated when I was a kid..that music still gets me.What was the first horror film you remember seeing?
How old were you?
What effect did it have on you?
Mine was King Kong (1933). RKO released it to TV in 1957, when I was four-years-old. The parents debated whether to let me watch it, but acquiesced after much begging.
I loved it, and after that my Dad took me to every horror film HE wanted to see, including some Mom would have vetoed.
Jaws.... saw it when it came out at the drive in..... in 1972. I was about 5 and was on the top of my stepfathers car roof , watching it wrapped in a blanket... hearing everything over all those old metal box speakers they used to hang in the car window.... it was pretty damn terrifying at the time.
Yes, because of that I was afraid of going into beach water for the longest time.
