The scariest movie I saw when I was a little kid was in 1968 when "The Power" came out. My uncles (both in their early teens) were given a few bucks to go out to the movies, and take me along (I was about six years old at the time). They were instructed to take me to see some Disney movie that was showing, but being teenagers they were not interested in seeing some lame-ass Disney movie, and instead insisted on going to see some way cool sci-fi thriller. So they sold me on the idea of seeing this "really great" movie, and how it would help to show that I was cool enough to hang out with the "big kids". Being as I was young and stupid, I went "Sure, OK, sounds good" and tagged along.

This movie freaked me out on some very primal levels, and I ended up having nightmares for MONTHS afterwards. Ultra vivid gut wrenching mind ripping nightmares that had me waking up and screaming my face off for months afterwards. Needless to say, my uncles were totally busted.

The last movie I saw that really bothered me - and I was in college, for God's sake -- was "Cat People," with Natasha Kinski. I slept in the living room with the lights on. And this was in a house full of college students.

I was taken to a Queen concert as a child and Freddy Mercury walked out wearing a crown and robe. I immediately took ill with what was later described as a mild strike.
