Who! and What! got me into horror!!! My horror journey from childhood to adulthood.

A rundown of my introduction to the world of horror and some experiences growing up as a horror fan.

When I was a kid, I thought Poltergeist was scary. I remember when the tree branch reached into a window and picked up the kid out of his bed. If I watched it today, it wouldn't be scary, but as a small child in the 80's and early 90's, it was scary.

Yes same as a kid it was creepy but its just a fantastic film and I love it and not so much the remake hahaha

I first saw some horror movies when my family got our first VCR back in the late 80's, and we rented movies. My mom always liked horror, but my dad preferred war movies. I enjoyed all kinds of genres, but some of the first horror movies I remember were slashers like Freddy, Chucky, Jason, and Michael. We also rented the Leprechaun. I think I like slasher characters because I was always a big Pro Wrestling fan, and slashers are similar to wrestling characters because they have unique persona's and backstories. Look at a character like Kane, who's backstory is similar to Jason. Both were thought to be dead as children, but they were alive the whole time.

Dude absolutely 100% im a huge movie fan in general, just horror. Primarily, slashers are just my all-time favorites and I'm also a lifelong wrestling fan aswell and love it with a passion and thats a cool connection you make for sure!!!

The first Jason movie I remember seeing was part 6. It was scary when he jumps up out of the grave at the beginning. But normally I like the first 4 movies where Jason was mortal, before the series got weird.

Exactly, I'm just kinda more of a horror purist and tend to lean towards the original of anything haha I love jason lives just love the 1st 4 films more hahaha
