What was your first horror movie you seen?

First topic message reminder :

Ok gonna show my age but I was 9 yrs old when I watched this by myself.

Glad to know that I am not the only person who (as a child), thought of this movie as scary. Not a fan of flying monkeys to this day.

Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Birds”   Another movie that haunts me.

On Friday nights, my siblings watched scary movies hosted by Sammy Terry...never did like Friday nights either!  

Good ol' Sammy Terry. Robert "Bob" Carter (1929-2013) was watched by generations in Indiana when hosting WTTV's (now Fox 59) Shock Theater which was later renamed Nightmare Theater from 1962 to 1983. My brother and I grew up with him camping those Grade B horror flicks. (Thanks for being a part of this kid's memorable childhood, Bob. Keep resting in peace.)



Trivia: "Sammy Terry" was a play on the word cemetery. Bob once filled in for Dick Clark on American Bandstand.
