Think I was 10 when I saw the original The Fly on the telly, the one with Vincent Price in. I was ****ing petrified when she pulled that towel off his fly's bonce. Tame by today's standards. Kids watch a boxset of the Saw series at 10 years old in between playing Grand Theft Auto nowadays. The only thing that scares them is the router becoming disconnected.
My daughter still has the heebie geebies about The Childcatcher. Didn't help that I got her a full size poster of him for her 21st.
She's a tubby nurse Ratched at a psycho centre in James Cook Hospital now. She'd scare you more than Georgie ever did. She probably does his meds now.
That's all well and good but I think the folk on GC would prefer to make their own minds up after seeing a photo. Ron was kind enough to send us links to his daughter's YouTube performances which certain members still have playing on a loop.
Alucard...the Albino that supposedly haunted the old deserted house on the hill in my youth... then you realised it was "Dracula" backwards which made it WORSE [emoji16]
Hellraiser was scary back in the day, however I was never scared of the Daleks in Dr. Who. All this talk of people hiding behind the couch because of the Daleks always bemused me.
Don't think I'll bother. Curiosity has got the better of me every time the Doctor changes. I watch one episode, think yep still ****e, and don't watch again.
It was good with Christopher Eccleston, reached its peak with David Tennant, was so-so with that Mon heid guy and went really downhill with Peter Capaldi (which was a shame cause he's a genuinely good actor). As usual with the BBC it became a vehicle for their social justice/equality/identity politics bollocks and they killed it. Or we could just agree that it's a kids TV show and adults who take it seriously are sad, still living at home with their parents, never had sex geeks who need a good kicking. @Ponders Revisited to confirm.
