I kinda wonder how many childhood terrors are the responsibility of babysitter shananagans

I may be wrong, but isn't there a giant anaconda scene in Moonraker? I think that got me for swimming pools.

I certainly agree that sharks are far more terrifying than hell.

I've been rewatching X-Files from the first three seasons lately. Outside of the pure enjoyability, it simultaneously reinforces my belief that just about all contemporary television is just ass to ass play.

Speaking of such, The Faith of Our Fathers, that ending. That was a pretty good terror.

I can't, they're nanobots. Too small

except in that Dudley Moore flick.

I'm always worried I'll go to an unfamiliar police station to turn in a replicant, and suddenly find myself being questioned by cops convinced I am the replicant. Then I have to shoot my way out, cuz these cops are all fuckin replicants.

Night Flight on USA. So glad to hear it brought up. It was the source of some disturbing stuff in my youth that I don't remember now. I always wanted to stumble upon recorded episodes of that show.

Hey Coldstream, despite what you may think, those same Grandparents were freaked out by Edgar Rice Burroughs books and shit. I get your point, but this is about "irrational fear" via pop culture.

I was so sheltered as a child, and prohibited from mainly violence in film by my parents. Establishing that taboo made me gravitate toward the weird and disturbing. Thus, I loved Time Bandits right off.

23,000 nukes and counting right? Where has the fear gone?

of lasties

What's worse, this plot or the high five at the end?

Pfff

Blue Velvet for sure. Even though Wild at Heart gives me a queasy stomach ache, Blue Velvet, particularly the scene you mentioned, holy cow.

Evangelicals are the cult that scares me the most currently. Voodoo cults are just fun.

Love that video, Richard James is a freak GOD

To me the bad surgery videos are the liposuction ones, where they appear to be fucking the guts of some poor fool with a prod.

is what happens
