The Day the Earth Stood Still

Me too! Didn't even have to think about it. I can still see the alien standing in front of his spaceship. I was seven, and was all alone in the family room. Guess everyone else had gone to bed.

Yes, it was..........

I was standing in my Uncle's den watching it alone. Everyone else was in the kitchen talking and drinking coffee. I don't think I moved until the movie was over, and I really wanted to go into the kitchen, but I HAD to know what happened next.

Wizard of Oz, when the tree started throwing the apples it freaked me out!

The Poltergeist clown literally made me pee my pants at a sleep over.

Still talking to a therapist about that one.

The flying monkeys from Wizard of Oz freaked me out.

I remember one time while at my cousins house in the country we planned on camping out overnight. We set up our tent, prepared our campfire and went inside to watch a movie. We watched Children of the Corn. After being thoroughly freaked out we then went out to see we had set up or camp next to a corn field. Needless to say, we slept indoors that night.

+1 on the flying monkeys for the Wizard of Oz. The flying monkeys inspired a recurring dream when I was a kid of monkeys with machine guns coming out of a tornado (lived in OK). :)

I had a Charlie McCarthy ventriloquist doll at the time. Needless to say it went into a trunk for a while... a trunk with some heavy items piled on top.
