AGE INAPPROPRIATE VIEWING: 29 MOVIES YOU SAW TOO YOUNG
I honestly can’t think of any motion pictures that I saw as a little girl that scarred me for life.
But people always said I was terribly precocious. I was definitely an old soul.
However, EW’S illustrious readers said that there were a number of flicks that they saw too young that haunt them to this very day.
I guess some of them may contain material that is rather intense for a pre teen. If you’re under the age of 10 at first viewing, then it may be hard to shake.
Here are the most interesting examples from the best films:
FLASHDANCE
THE ROSE
THE EXORCIST
ANIMAL HOUSE
PURPLE RAIN
E.T.
ALIEN
PULP FICTION
THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS

rainbows and lollipops would be great title for a film about killer.
hmm i’m a wimpy kid. so i’m pretty much zero interst in horror type stuff.
“normal” people always hate or fear (even the idea) that a movie may be ‘weird’. but they have no problems with killings.
yay america… 😉

RAINBOWS & LOLLIPOPS sounds like a musical about a serial killer. Maybe directed by TIM BURTON?
I know. That’s a terrible joke. My bad…
But you are right, glim. The U.S. does seem to have a horrific obsession with violence and it trickles down to a lot of popular entertainment.
Must be all those hypocritical, rednecked conservatives…
