"The movie that traumatised me most as a child was ________ "

Childs play!

I was at my aunts and my uncle (who couldnt read) rented a video. He seen the doll on the cover and thought it was about toys.

Home house was only about 5 mins away and I ran and screamed the whole way home

As a 7-8 year old I'd say the Child Catcher in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang got me. By 17 (still a child) I'd seen about every horror movie going and two movies stood out. Those creatures in the 1980s Evil Dead were horrific and redrum, redrum, redrum, redrum.............the suspense in that movie was excellent, from cycling around the corridors on his 3 wheeler to, oh fcuk don't go into that room!

Whilst not speaking from personal experience, I have been told that the scariest movies are so-called s#uff movies.

I know a guy who watched part of one, before he became physically sick.

I remember yrs ago swimming on holiday in a packed Sea in the canaries

A little cafe nearby playing typical funky music very loud so you could hear it in the water
