What was your first horror movie? (programming.dev)

The very first English horror movie I remember is Evil dead and the absolute hype surrounding it. There were stories of people dying of heart attacks after watching that movie. We borrowed a deck player to watch the movie. I don't remember much but I remember a girl pulled by the vines and someone's feet with cracks on the sole. What is your first horror movie that you remember?

Candyman. Saw it as a kid, and frickin loved it. I think I compared any horror to it afterwards without realising. Funnily enough as an adult I still love it.

Philip glass score and the urban, racial, lower class angle certainly help a lot.

Saw the recent sequel and liked it too.

Nice, I just did a double feature of Candyman (1992) and Candyman (2021) last night. The original definitely holds up and is one of the best horror films of all time IMO, probably my favorite of the 90s.
