Re: Age-inappropriate things that scared you as a child.
Wolf:
My father took me and a friend too see the first Nightmare on elm street in the theater I think I was 9 or 10. I was freaked out after that. One two freddies coming for you...
A funny thing during that movie there is a scene where a girl and guy are hooking up and freddy gets the girl and drags her all over the room and blood gets all over. During this scene someone in the audience yelled "it must be her first time", everyone laughed. I did not get the joke until about 10 years later when I saw the movie again.
Also I watched the exorcist around the same age. I think my dad let me watch that one as well.

It didn't scare me but it was certainly age-inappropriate.
When I was 9 and my brother was 7 my mother brought us to what she thought was the movie "Chariots of Fire", you know that uplifting story of the first person to run the 4 minute mile, but almost didn't because the race was on a Sunday and as a devout Christian he didn't think he should be racing on the Sabbath. Well, Mom didn't read the marquee too closely that day - she brought us to see the movie "Quest for Fire", you know cavemen, lots of sex and some violence. Well, mom realizes her mistake about 30 seconds into the movie, but being properly mortified, remained in her seat for the duration.
JD:
You got the more interesting movie.
Blue Kitty:
For some reason I kept thinking to myself, "That's cool, you got to see Ringo Starr as a caveman," but that's another movie all together.
Border Reiver:
I'm not sure what mortified my mother more - the rather graphic violence, the large number of naked women, the large number of sex scenes, or the lack of anyone speaking a language that could be understood.
As a nine year old though - damn, those are the things that made the movie.
