I still remember that time my dad told me there's this really cool Shark movie, where he kills a bunch of people.. This sounded so cool, I loved that thought. But when I saw it.. Boy, I STILL get nervous in the water.. Thanks a lot Dad..
#4: INDIANA JONES:
That whole bug scene..
#3: WILLY WONKA:
We all know the scene.. Fuck that scene..
#2: MOST GOOSEBUMPS EPISODES:
Yeah.. I was pretty easy to scare..
#1: KING KONG:
"And the award for most fucked up Natives, goes to.. Peter Jackson (audience cheers)".
Seriously, man.. With all the slow motion, and the fucking old lady.. I was traumatized for months..
Even that scene when Carl sees the skull on the map.. I think I had indigestion or something.. That face image fucked me up..
