Heh. I was older when I saw it, but I can definitely see those things scaring the crap out of a child.

Of course, I'll see your spider robots and raise you Jaws in the theater when I was 10. That ****ed me up for life.

LMAO there was a time when I thought Jaws just might be able to get me in the bathtub

The only thing standing between me and certain death by shark attack, was my
baking soda powered submarine from the bottom of a box of Captain Crunch

Shit got me dusty watching Stallone make his entitled kid arm wrestle a bigger kid at a truck stop diner. The bigger kid actor actually had a black thumbnail, not from being emo like todays pussies but probably because he had a side gig working on 3wheelers for his uncle

Its on Pluto, whatever the **** that channel is

There is a great movie Stallone did about 10 years earlier called "Paradise Alley".

Check it out.

I had nightmares for weeks after seeing that - my mattress was the raft, floating in the ocean, the music would play... and BOOM SHARK!!!!!! I'd wake up screaming. I can still hear my mom saying "I never should have taken you to see that ****ing movie." LMAO

Since then, and we're talking almost 50 years now, I've always been uneasy in any body of water where I didn't know what else was in there with me. Didn't matter if it was the ocean, a river, a lake or a pond. And if I was swimming and something touched me underwater, ****, I'd damn near leap on to the shore.

DAMN YOU SPIELBERG! :cuss::cuss::cuss::cuss:

Big Night

Stanley Tucci, Tony Shalhoub, Minnie Driver, Allison Janney, Isabella Rossellini, Ian Holm, Campbell Scott, Marc Anthony, Liev Schreiber

Cool factoid about this film: the actor playing the barber in the film later plays the role of Remo Gaggi in Goodfellas.

pretty much almost any film from stanley kubricks filmography that was screen written by him

Jaws was scary for kids but that Creepshow with the oil slick that pulled in teenagers made summer camp uncomfortable for many swimmers. I saw lots of kids scanning the water for approaching oil slicks before jumping off the wooden rafts at the lake.

Great flick. Bought the DVD from a HyVee when they were selling off some of their rental movies for like $5. Then flipped it on Ebay for $150 because it was out of print/rare.

I was only four when it came out, so I'm pretty sure I was six when it finally showed up on tv and was able to watch it

Remember clear as day many times mom would take me to the public pool - that you could see straight to the bottom of - bu buh but what if Jaws could turn invisible if he wants to?

You never considered that did ya, mom?!! LMAO

Yeah, that shit's not nearly as scary on a 19-25" TV.

I was too young to see The Exorcist in the theater, and when I finally saw it on HBO in the late 70s when I was a teenager it didn't bother me at all. I actually thought the demon was kind of funny.

I wouldn’t say many of his movies are unknown or forgotten? Maybe Barry Lyndon, which I’ve never seen

No movie has affected my life more than watching Jaws as a kid. I sometimes have an irrational fear response when swimming in a ****ing lake. I can't see myself ever scuba diving. And I LOVE the movie now. One of the absolute all time best. But it ****ed me up.
