The first horror movie you remember seeing as a kid?

I'm pretty sure it was "THE WOLFMAN" with Lon Chaney Jr.

BTW, that was on T.V., "not" at the movies! Not quite "that" old.

Friday the 13th I cant remember which one. But ever since then I concider Jason the coolest mofo ever. Dunno why I wasnt scared or anything being a kid. I just thought he was badass killing all those random people. On the other hand the Nightmare on Elmstreet movies creep me out still even to this day.

I will have to agree with Nom my first was Friday the 13th, but I don't remember which one.

I remember going to the old Frankestien movies at the drivin when I was a kid.

I think the first one on my own was the exorsit

I'm with Mittens except it was those damned flying monkeys in the forest that messed me up. I grew up on all sorts of horror movies but the first one that really made an impact had to be "The Pit and the Pendulum". Vincent Price is/was my hero for scary movies. I'll watch one of his movies whenever I see it come on. I need a marathon. The VCR is ready.

Creature Feature movies on TV when I was a kid. I can't remember the guy who was the host but he was dressed up as a mad doctor with blood all over him... I remember my brother and I hiding in the kitchen when it would come on....

I remember the Dr. Demento movies on Saturday late night. They would show all the old Boris Karlof and Vincent Price type movies. They were great.

I can't honestly say what was the first one I saw (very poor memory of my childhood), but I do remember babysitting and being up very late one night and watching The Bad Seed. That really freaked me out. The girl who played Rhoda was beyond creepy. I guess they're planning on remaking it.
