I remember sneaking out of bed as a kid, hiding behind the living room couch and watching the movies my Mom was watching but wouldn't let ME watch. In retrospect, that wasn't such a good idea. I was scarred. Thank you, Bravo Channel, for reminding me.
100 Scariest Movie Moments recalled to me the fact that an 8-year old really shouldn't be watching the Jaws movies or The Shining, Exorcist or Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Exorcist, I think I was actually 12 and I remember my Mom warning me that I really didn't want to watch that, but I did it anyway. I remember that I was totally freaked out, I do not, however, actually remember the movie. Obviously, I have blocked it out. I've also blocked out most of The Shining. The unfortunate part? I was so young that now, at the grand old age of 29, I can't seem to get myself to re-watch these movies. I Freak Out at the thought.
I'm planning to give Exorcist a shot this weekend in honor of Halloween, an experiment. However, I can't promise NOT to get freaked out within the first ten minutes and turn the channel.
Yeah, I'm a punk. I know.
