I think my brother still hates me... first time in our lives we were alone (I think I was 13 or 14, my brother 11 or 12), dark stormy night with lightning, my father was going out for a few hours, so of course, I got to choose a (VHS) movie.. it was Event Horizon. He couldn't sleep for days (I had a nightmare but I could sleep), my father was SO mad.

Had my ex-partner's oldest kid (age 14) hiding behind the sofa. I too was not popular when he woke up in the middle of the night by a nightmare and blaming it on watching Event Horizon. I thought he could handle it because we'd just watched all the Alien movies and he quite enjoyed them. He saw Aliens first and I suggested we watch the original/rest, he was quite drawn into suspense of the first film which the others have never quite matched in intensity. I guess Event Horizon was a bit too dark and visceral for his tastes.
