Anonymous Coward User ID: 83899610 United States 07/30/2022 11:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | When I was in my early 20s, I would enjoy a good scare. Never been into gore, but I liked things that were genuinely scary (Poltergeist, The Shining, etc.). Quoting: StayCurious But now, age 40, I find these movies "stressful" and "disturbing" and not fun. What is wrong with me? I never liked those movies. And now reality is becoming sufficiently scary to many so we no longer need horror movies for that big scare. You just need Obama, Hillary, Gates, Fauci, and the WEF. |

I was a fan of horror and gore films since 15 up to until about I had offspring. I remember watching "The Boy who Wears Pajamas" for the first time when my kids young and sleeping. I was traumatized for a day and I kept holding my kids. My tolerance for intense fear is no longer tolerable. For me, the reason has been because I scare myself to death already being a mother and I no longer need movies to give me that jolt of fear. |

Especially if you have children, then you really start to change the mind over... Means, I think your mentally growing up... And your mind is seeing the beauty in it.. Whatever there is... But yea it's natural for normal thinking people... People that are in the dark side, go deeper into horror show which is life... It's why the military gets them at 18..18 year Olds are dumb enough to think they can live through anything... Try to recruit 50 year Olds n up.. No way... They figured out they want to live... It's natural for the normal people... Romans 14:11 It is written: “‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord, ‘every knee will bow before me; every tongue will acknowledge God. Revelation 20:15 Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire. |

But I used to enjoy watching films like the Shining (the old one in the 1980). Scary films used to serve as like an amusement park ride for me. But now at age 40, I just don't find them fun. They just make me feel more uncomfortable for some reason. |

Yeah, it's about growing up and staying away from 'garbage for the mind.' Of course, some people never grow up. I know some that can't be alone after dark and need to sleep with the lights on. Some also see "ghosts" and I hear them talk about it. Yeah, I believe them. I highly suspect they opened themseleves up to it by watching horror movies. |

The inhumanity coming from people. Seriously. You don't have to see a horror movie--- YOU'RE IN ONE! Living has taught me one thing; nothing is certain...except salvation through Jesus Christ! |

But they are extremely rare, 99% rely on shitty jump scares or gory effects because they are shitty cheap Cali or Canadian budget shoots out of a van. God awful acting, massive plot holes. Hokey Hammer films are still a favorite. |

User ID: 80983218 United States 07/31/2022 03:22 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I used to watch horror movies all the time as a kid up until my early 20’s. When you get older and have had a lot more life experience, known people who have gotten seriously hurt or died, been hurt bad yourself you start to become more empathetic with the victims unless your a complete psychopath. It’s not so fun anymore watching that shit after you’ve lived through some shit yourself, same reason as you get older you prefer more peace and quiet and try to avoid drama and stressful situations as much as possible. It’s completely normal man, don’t worry about it. Out from the belly of a whale came a prophet, Amen! |
