I'm using "scare" a little loosely here, but I was waaaay to young to have seen clips of Alien when I did. It really fucked up to the point that I wasn't able to sleep in pitch black into my adulthood. Nowadays, Alien is one of my favorite movies, specifically because it's so scary, but I avoided horror movies like the plague at least up until high school
I can certainly watch that movie no problem now, and I wouldn't say it scares me in the same way it did when I was little, but I wouldn't love it as a horror movie if it wasn't still one of the most frightening pieces of cinema
Alien might be the scariest movie of all time, IMO, so this makes perfect sense to me.
Alien was actually my first movie, although I was too young to remember. But I remember Aliens. That movie scared the shit out of me. I slept with the lights on for a long time. I still don’t like those movies.
Same here. At a family get together my older sister and the other older kids decided they wanted to watch Aliens.
I was all, “yeah, that’s cool. I’m cool. I’ll totally stay in here too.”
That movie scared. The. Shit. Out of 9 year old me.
