I waited for my dad to go into the kitchen before creeping back into the living room and tucking myself behind the sofa.
The film was Psycho.... and I gave myself away during the shower scene when I screeched....  Needless to say, I was not in the good books. My dad let me watch the rest of the film and I was too frightened to sleep that night. My dad said that it was hard luck, and if I wanted to watch films that give me nightmares then I deserved a sleepless night.
To this day I have never watched Psycho again. I would probably not find it scary now, but I did back then..  |
Lettie, I bet you scared the bejesus out of him!
The problem with Jaws was it took place (the setting) about 30 miles from where we went to the beach most every weekend. It was pretty freeky and all but we all loved body-surfing to stay out.
As for Scarface Ian, I rather enjoy seeing all the bad guys knock each other off . . .BOO!
