Real good. Nightmares, the conviction that the monster from the movie was under your bed, a tiny existential crisis, or a life-long fear, most of us didn&#8217;t emerge from childhood unscathed by a movie that got us at precisely the right time with precisely the right scare \u2013&nbsp;I certainly didn&#8217;t. Unpleasant at the time, but horror movies scaring the crap out of us as children are moments we can now look back on with fond nostalgia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a few movies that got me good in my formative years, and I was curious. I asked Twitter to share with me the horror movies that scared them silly as kids and, as always, Twitter delivered. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">GREMLINS messed me all the way up as it was the first time I had to grapple with the concept of small monsters.
