Growing up I thought killer bees and quicksand we're going to be a lot more prevalent than they actually are.
Quicksand is not like they show in TV anyway.
Don't forget hanging onto helicopter skids and cliff edges
I do remember a time during childhood when the most frightening thing I knew about was killer bees. It was a more innocent time. That's the trauma.
Little did we know that it was old men in politics that was actually more frightening for our world.
Scooby Doo tried to warn us
The banality of evil
My Girl caused way more bee trauma than anything else.
Is this the one where the family buys a house that has them living in the walls?
I hated this. Why did I watch these?
Memory unlocked, and fear reinstated.
Couldn't have left that in the forgotten memories.
Mine was Arachnophobia, the movie that caused me arachnophobia.
No, mid 70s but try as I might ffs, I can't remember which of these was the culprit. I want to say the John Saxon one, because it was always John Saxon. But even then I am unsure.
For me, it was Night of the Lepus. So scary
I've been afraid of bees since the 80s when I was a kid - I didn't need shit.
