What was the first scary movie you saw? How old were you?

Pretty sure it was the Exorcist. Might have been 3rd or 4th grade? But a lot of it went over my head. Birds was in 5th grade. I remember the friend I was with was really freaked out but it didn't bother me. Same with The Fly a few years later. I started reading Stephen King novels when I was way too young, like 6 or 7 years old so my bar was high.

The first time I remember really being scared at a movie was in high school, Silence of the Lambs and Jacob's ladder.
