Could not swim in the pool without fear for years!  Sharks scare the crap out of me to this day.  I surf and if I see a dolphin fin poking out of the water I crap my wet suit.

All of the low-budget black and white horror films of he 50's were being rerun on television, and I used to spend hours being traumatized by the "monsters."  Of particular note were the giant insects (Ants, tarantulas, praying mantis', wasps, etc. - all of the creatures that lived in miniature in our yard.) and the space men/creatures (Man from Planet X, Invaders from Mars, the Crawling Eye, Gort, etc.).  In fact, "Klaatu barada nikto" is the only reason we are all still alive.  Lol

Not quite a kid, but it was a shit scary industrial ass monster movie.  
It still freaks me out.

EOM

Not really

but this thing:

remember the movie "Spirited Away"

some Japanese cartoon movie from around 2001. Everybody here too old to be traumatized by it.  But as I was watching it, I said wow! if I was a young kid. Even more if you are like more visual like me.
