My dads brother visited us one time - when I was around 7 years old - and they sent me to bed and watched a movie together on TV. I’m not sure where my mom was, perhaps taking care of my little brother, but I quietly went down the stairs and saw them watching the movie, and I stayed very quietly so they would not know I’m there.

It was a Bruce Lee movie, “The Big Boss (1971)”. In that movie Bruce works at a ice factory and his boss kills some people and puts them into the ice. That’s not the worst of it. They then have those big ice blocks and a big blade saw and that saw cuts the big blocks into smaller peaces. It also cuts those bodies in the ice blocks into smaller pieces.

I couldn’t believe what I saw and went back upstairs and couldn’t fall asleep. I never told my parents.

    I watched Event Horizon when I was 10 not knowing it was an horror movie and I had recurring nightmares for weeks

      Same. Where we’re going, we don’t need eyes.

      Same but I was in my mid twenties.

      The director’s cut would have been a classic for the ages.

        I saw this in my 20s as well, somehow never having heard a thing about it. I thought it was gonna be a standard sci-fi movie. Boy was I surprised.

        Also, I’ve heard about that lost footage that they filmed but never released. Shit sounds wild.

      Watch a movie called Demon Wind when I was 9. Only scary movie that ever got to me and I had been watching them since I was 5. But for whatever reason that movie fuck me up that I had accident in bed.

      Funny watch that movie as an adult and it so bad and corny but it disturb me at 9.

      The brothers Grimm for me. I don’t see many people discussing it online, but I enjoyed it. That scene where the horse eats a kid is still distressing to me years later.
