The Scooby Doo Project: Blurring The Lines Between Childhood & Adulthood

I have an interesting history with the horror genre as a whole. I can remember being very little and being somewhat put off by the concept of horror movies, but never really being scared by them either. But, as I got a little older, I definitely became much more interested in horror and began seeking it out in whatever medium I could find. I played a lot of Silent Hill games as a kid, and really liked stuff like Courage the Cowardly Dog on Cartoon Network. That all being said, and while I think I turned out fairly okay as an adult, it's highly likely that I did see certain things before I was probably supposed to, and one of those things was horror movies. I watched the original IT adaptation on the Scifi channel eons before I even knew what IT or Stephen King was, and I wound up somehow convincing my parents, likely because I was extremely mature for my age, to let me rent horror movies that I probably shouldn't have been allowed to rent. Nothing insidiously gruesome, mind you...
