things that scared you as a kid

[Marklr]

The way the clown looks at that girl shit me right up as a kid. So sinister.
The other thing that scared me as a kid was the constant threat of nuclear war. Now I wouldn't mind one.

John Carpenter's The Thing. Got as far as the kennel scene many times, but no further. Now its my favourite film.

Waco Jackos' Thriller. Shit in your pants scary.

Eddie Grant. Loved Electric Avenue, but whenever I saw Eddie on TV, with those gashers I thought he was a mortal threat to anyone nearby.
Like sitting next to tyrannosaur. Just never knew when he might try to eat someone.
