What an awesome post dude, well done! I am not the biggest horror fan but I remember a time when I did enjoy it though :) and those of the 80's where funny as hell :D
I must admit that there are times that I don't feel like watching horror. also with all the real horror that is happening in the world. one of the reasons why I'm not into realistic torture horror like The Saw movies.
Horror comedies, on the other hand. Always enjoyable. Especially those from the 80s :)
5-8 That is young! Not as young as my little brother was though when I watched it with him ;)
I was born at the start of the 80s, so I also saw Child's Play when it was already out for a while... but I watch more older movies than new ones.
Some of my favorites are even from the 1920s or 1930
I might do a write up on favorite old movies one day
it is for me! haha you shouldn't be watching horror films at that age.. wow! those are indeed old, i mean, if we watch it now is it still worth it? the old movies i mean
Watching old(er) movies is definitely worth it. There are so many more good and great older films than there are new ones. The question is, are you able to enjoy them, as a kid from the 90s?
Most of these films are very slow and we live in fast times, where people have very little focus.
During film studies, I learned to watch very old movies, sometimes even without dialogue/ spoken word and just piano music. Movies made before they could record sound with cameras ( before 1930) or Russian, Asian or Swedish movies where almost nothing happened. Where stories weren't being told but shown.
These days, I miss this slowness in cinema. Most movies are way too fast. So fast that you not even see what is happening. It sometimes gives me a headache.
But, even for me - with this film history background - it's tough to be focused long enough to sit through a full movie without a break. We live in a time full of distractions.

I remember being scared shitless from gremlins when i was a kid... never touched a toy since...

I guess you never saw Child's Play then?
Chucky is definitely one of the creepiest dolls ever ;)
