What's a movie that you were probably "too young" to see, when you first watched it, but you're glad you did? (self.asklemmy)

My personal one was the shining. I ended up watching it over 20 times before I was 12.

I'm spending a lot of time babysitting my nieces (9 & 11). I'm cis male and I would love to hear what women would answer or suggest for me to show them in a cool uncle role.

Re: Shining

Mom dropped me off at the movies to see Star wars (again). As I walk in the screen showed elevators doors open and a waterfall of blood pour out. I found an usher because I thought I was in the wrong room.

Trailers, man.

They put that scene in the trailer? Man, way to blow your load early trailer people.

I remember a trailer where they show you the elevator doors and a narrator talks about Stephen King and the genius of Kubrick and then the doors open. Nothing else.
