My ditzy wife(no pics) wasn't thinking apparently and let our 8 year old daughter watch "Ocean of Fear" which was a documentary about the USS Indianapolis and even though she's almost 20 now she still won't get in the ocean on a bet.

Stripes for me. Shower scene and mud wrestling was a little awkward.

My parents would take me to my dad's brother and his wife's house to watch new to VHS movies. Maximum Overdrive is the first that I remember but Road Warrior fricked me up at age 5. That and the can of coke that tried to keep me awake but didn't. The only time I've had a walking nightmare that I'm aware. I was screaming to get out from under the car.

When I was about 10 my grandmother took me and my younger brothers to see a movie of our choice and we picked Cliffhanger. Pretty sure I was watching my grandmother's face out of my periphery more than the screen. Found out later she took my aunt and uncle to see a Cheech and Chong movie when they were about the same age. Crazy ole baptist.

Parents took me to see Saturday Night Fever when I was 11 or 12 cuz I thought it would have cool music and dancing.

Within the first few minutes, the dialogue became
f-that, f-that.

Cringe.

Robocop 2 when I was 7. It’s wayyyyy too violent for a kid.

Titanic when I was older and had to sit there watching boobs with my super religious dad.

I was 11 or 12 and we rented National Lampoon European Vacation at Blockbuster, since it was PG-13. Older PG-13's had some nudity in them, yeah.

Mom jumped up to fast forward through the part where Rusty goes off alone with the German girl, but she was too late. I can neither confirm nor deny that later that night I snuck out and rewatched that scene multiple times...

Jurassic Park

I was 6 when we watched it in theaters and the loud noises plus the raptors scared me to death. It still kind of freaks me out. The others don’t just the original.

I had really strict parents when it came to movies/TV. When I was 12, there was a birthday party that included lunch at Sicily’s Pizza followed by a PG-13 movie…I was allowed to go to the pizza party and then had to go home

When I was very little, my parents would put me in the back seat of their 1964 Nash Rambler with a kind of bed/pallet where I would eventually go to sleep, and they'd go see movies at the drive-in. The only one I remember by name was Bonnie and Clyde (1967 version with Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway). I was not quite 3 when this came out (August 1967; I turned 3 in November) but I remembered them seeing that movie by name and a seeing a particular scene involving a rowboat.

Was wondering if that was a real memory or not, and just a few years ago I finally watched it myself. Sure enough, at one point there is a scene with a rowboat on a pond.

Not that there was anything wrong much with that movie in 1967.

But in 1976 when I was 11 and my little sister was only 8, my dad and step-mom took us with them to see the movie adaptation of "Ode to Billy Joe" at a theatre. I don't think they knew what was going to be in it-- makeshift brothel with whores, nudity, teen sex, homo sex, etc. Lots of cringe and silence with that one.

My parents never took me to the movies. My mom would drop off me and my sister, go run errands, and then pick us up.
