Jeez, that makes me feel old. Jaws in the theater when I was 5 during its original release.

Jaws in a drive-in. I was 10.

That's cool! I love the series, though I didn't get to see it during its original run. My oldest sister was a huge fan and would watch it after school.

A relative brought me along w/ him and his pals to see Bram Stoker's Dracula when that came out in 1992.

I was 7.

My parents would take us to the drive-in to watch movies when we were little kids and the first scary movie I remember seeing was Psycho and the second one was Whatever Happened to Baby Jane. I believe the drive-in showed them a few years after they first came out.

The first horror movie I remember seeing at the drive-in, was either The Manitou, or the Invasion Of The Body Snatchers remake.

The original "Night of the Living Dead." Me, my brother, and a few of our friends saw it at the Mayland Theater in Mayfield Heights, Ohio.

My first movie I saw in theaters was a horror/suspense movie: "Willard", in 1972.

I remember watching Psycho and Whatever happened to Baby Jane on TV with my Dad when I was a kid. Also, Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds!
