When I was a snotty little kid, my older sister used to always borrow horror movies from the local video store. Scary movies were all that she watched. Scary movies and Stand By Me and White Fang (on loop — thanks to crushes on River Phoenix and Ethan Hawke).
I grew to like horror films too, but it wasn’t before they caused some serious lifelong trauma. Without further ado, here the 25 that scared me the most (entirely from memory).
