I asked my son what horror movie he wanted to watch with me and he said The Labyrinth.

I told him it's not a horror movie and he said it scared the shit out of him as a little kid when I would watch it. I just had a crush on David Bowie, and loved the movie as a child of the 80's. I didn't realize I was traumatizing my child by watching it. We got a good laugh out of this but funny the things you don't think of as scary someone else does. I guess if you really think about it an androgenous dude in way too tight tights stealing a baby to turn into a goblin and trying to gaslight a girl into giving up her brother by dancing with her at a ball is pretty horrific...

I love Labyrinth. my trauma movie as a kid was Nightmare on Elm street,. I still can't watch it because of that. even though as an adult, I know how cheesy that movie is now.

@Bexsy I don't really remember any movies traumatizing me as a kid

Your kid is lucky, my mom traumatized me when I was 11 when she was watching The Exorcist
IMO the deeper horror type is psychological horror. Not the obvious scare, chase/blood and guts type.


I loved it for its spookiness.
And cleverness.
The pupetry and backdrops were stunning.
I've never seen that

@Shybutwilling2bfriends It's really not a horror, it's meant for kids but as a lot of 80's movies were it's a bit dark

I guess Bowie's bulge could be scary? 🤷‍♀🤣

@VisionQuest Yes and watching clips of this movie they didn't even attempt to try to hide it

@SlippingAway Not at all!

I haven't seen that movie in so long. It's a damn good movie.
Jarrod’s cod piece is nightmare inducing
