Presumably the movie that scared me the most, from anything I've ever seen. And I wasn't even a small kid anymore when I saw it

Being scared and heartbroken all at once is not good at any age, as a kid it ruined me.

Yes, and now imagine living the scare. On May 1st, five days after meltdown all children in Poland were given Lugol's iodine as protection from radioactive fallout. At that time nobody outside of USSR really knew what happened because of total information blockade. So our government assumed the worst case scenario (that never really came true - as we know now) and acted accordingly. I was 11 at the time and only remeber some of what adults were saying, of course it was only wild speculations, but the fear was in the air...

Yes, thank you for mentioning this movie here. It really made me feel the fine line between sanity and craziness. It really pulls you in.

Yet Holocaust denial still exists.

That poor little shoe…

How many times do I have to tell you. No metal hangers.

Those Wheelers... 😱

Excellent series, very similar to what women in Afghanistan are going through now.

one hell of a soundtrack though. ;)

That's because it is. If you watch the current content you realise, people would gobble this up and no one would care about Trueman's situation. Everyone would just want it. He'd have no way to get out and most likely judges would block attempts to get him in the know or out because no one else is concerned. USA already has laws that allows you to film people without their knowledge and truly weak privacy protection laws. So I think if a company really wanted, they could find loopholes to make this happen. And that's what's making it scary

My mum made me watch this when I was around 13 or 14 and told me "this will put you off drugs for life" Thanks mum it totally worked

I was scared when they were inside the whale!

Ack. Ack. Ack!

A scientist wrote an article that this will essentially come true in a decade or so since there are so many plastics in our foods etc. it’s destroying fertility. Being able to have kids could eventually just not even be possible in the near future. It’s crazy.

I had nightmares about the creatures in that film..the skeksis and garthim especially

I saw this for the first time when I was perhaps 11, 12. David Bowie would forever define the term "sexy villain" for me.

The Weeping Angels is still one of the best Dr Who episodes.

THIS MOVIE RUINED MY CHILDHOOD and my parents didn't understand why I found it so traumatizing. Honestly, I think this film might be the reason I had such awful childhood depression and why I was suicidal so young.

John Merrick was his name.

Excellent film though. Brilliant dialogues and overall satire.

I think cats would have been cute if it was a fully animated movie that showed, well, cats animated like real cats

Again, another thriller. People don't seem to have a good grasp of what a horror movie is. If a movie scared you, and it's marked as a thriller, it probably has the correct categorization.

ah, the 1970's version with the boat ride from hell? WHY THE HELL WAS THAT EVEN NECCESSARY?!

The boat scene in the original gave me nightmares.

William Wonka

Yeah its actually kinda creepy

I'm 57 and I still can't watch it because of the Oompa Loompas! Terrified me as a kid and I still hate them.

W***y is censored. Bro

Uptight Panda is out of control! Censoring someone’s name, really?

Dahl stories are supposed to be scary.

Wally Wanka

I feel like this is only creepy if you didn’t know that the kids don’t die, because they don’t in the book

Yes!!!! Everything is scary!!! Everything. I literally hate every single character! Including all his weird poisonous death candy!

both the new one and the old one...that tunnel scene in the old one...geesh!...but, i find all raold dahl stuff horrifying and not for children...matilda is twisted AF

What am I missing?

Which version? Gene or Johny?

I love this movie. Very dark humor. Was ahead of its time and different than what people expected from Jim Carrey. And for me remains one of his finest.

I think they are referring to Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

I watched it when it was in the theatres. Never have I been interested in those cruise ship vacations.

Nocturnal Animals freaked me out.

Ummm Oz?
