Re: Age-inappropriate things that scared you as a child.
Cartilage Head:
I couldn't finish the first Clock Tower game when I was a kid. I was able to take it sometimes, but I just turned the game off a lot.
David_Dovey:
Oh yeah and the whole sacrifice scene from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

--- Quote from: MadassAlex on 14 Apr 2009, 08:24 ---I first watched Neon Genesis: Evangelion as a child of 8. That show is full of nightmare fuel, but this part stuck with me:
During one of the later episodes, an experimental Eva unit rejects control and starts fucking shit up for everyone. Shinji (the protagonist) is sent in to destroy it, using his own Eva unit. He discovers, however, that one of his best friends is the pilot (although his friend isn't in control), and refuses to damage the enemy Eva. The enemy Eva gets to work trying to destroy Shinji, but the commander of the operation steps in and initiates the "dummy plug" technology. The dummy plug is essentially an autonomous fighting system for the Eva, and it immediately gets to work.
First, Shinji's unit snaps the neck of the enemy unit. This isn't enough - it then throws the enemy to the ground, rips off its frontal armour, and proceeds to violently tear out its internal organs as the blood seeps into the nearby river and sprays across nearby skyscrapers. At one point, the fist of Shinji's unit comes down and mangles the head of the enemy unit, causing its eyeballs to roll around. As if to add insult to injury, Shinji's unit identifies the entry plug (cockpit equivalent) of the enemy unit, pulls it out, and crushes it in front of Shinji's eyes, despite the fact that a good friend was in there.
All the while, the commander of the operation (who is Shinji's father) is grinning widely, elated at the efficiency of his creation.

Also the bit where all the creepy Rei clones are floating in the tank... and then Ritsuko destroys them all :-o

I saw Jaws when I was about 5 I think. My nan (grandmother) of all people was babysitting and thought it was a good idea to let me and my brother who was 3 at the time watch it. Terrifying.
IT-I hate clowns so so much because of this film. I love the book though.
Terminator 2 frightened me when I first saw it, I guess I was about 9 or 10. Oh and Jurassic Park. I pretty much hid underneath my coat for most of the film.
GreyGabe:
Oh man... for whatever reason the movie "Mars Attacks!" absolutely terrified me when I was seven.
Also, when I was four or five... the beginning of Ghostbusters. The part with the librarian ghost. I had to hide from that (behind the couch) every time I watched the movie. Which was often, because I liked Ghostbusters. And still do.
