    One of my cousins had a Dick Tracy game for NES that was kept at my grandparents house, and I tried to play it on a few occasions. Something about it ... mostly the music I think ... gave me the most uneasy feeling. I could never play it more than a level or two before I was completely creeped out.

    I guess that explains why looking at her now I don't find her hot, but I did as a 10-11 year old.

    freddy krueger was one of the few characters that creeped me out.

    Pet Semetary was also one of the few flicks that made me feel a little uneasy.

    I like the creepshow reference. Most of the movie didnt bother me at all, however the blob in the lake was freaky.

    Other than that i watched just about everything as a kid and only a handful of things really bothered me.

    Oh, there was that one Goolies creature that came out of the toilet. That made me double check before i sat down for a couple of days

    At the age of 6 years, I was tossed out of our rowboat by my older brother. I encountered the floowing creatures as I swam to the shore:

    To this day, I am fearful of entering bodies of fresh water.

    I was shown the movie Cujo when I was about 4.....and it stuck with me.

    It didnt help that in the place behind our house then had two very large dogs, one of which was a St Benard.


    Anyway I brought it up a few months ago with my mum when we were talking about what scares us. I mentioned Cujo. She said, she remembered when the family watched it and I basically was so scared I was screaming.

    Count me as being scarred for life. Even to this day, I hate being near dogs of any kind. Even small ones!

    I own three dogs though! :p

    The part that really scared me was when the kid turned into a giant blueberry but as I kid I was creeped out by the whole movie.

    This didn't frighten me, per se, but it did send shivers down my spine and made me CONTINUE to watch the TV to see about what the episode would be: <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/KF-yh4mU6ps&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/KF-yh4mU6ps&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

    Grace Jones was a mean looking lady, even scarier as a giant robot head.

    Chucky from the Child's Play movies. I was terrified of that little bugger.

    Now? He's funny.
