What film were you WAY too young to watch?

I watched A Clockwork Orange when I was in 5th or 6th grade. My parents were't home and we had a satellite dish and cable tv so I seen things that I shouldn't have lol

Not me but my DH and my then 3 year old son watching JAWS
I came home from running errands in time to see him lose it when the shark jumped on the boat and chewed up the captain

2 for me. 1. Robocop, like mentioned by a PP. The funny thing was mom stopped by the video store and wanted to pick up a "family" movie for us all to watch together. (She obviously didn't know what that movie was about.) We still tease her every now and then about it. 2. One small clip from Nightmare on Elm Street. At a family reunion back in the 80's, the adults rented a VCR and some videos for the kids one night. The older kids snuck in Nightmare on Elm Street. I knew I didn't want to see it (I am terrified of horror films), But I peaked and saw just one small scene. I still remember that scene today. Ick!

I had been staying with my older brothers the summer 73 and they took me to see Flesh Gordan which was pretty much soft porn!
I was just young enough to be totally bored by the whole thing. Honestly they were great brothers usually, but like really!!

Funny thing about Robocop - a friend was the one who had mentioned it to me but they were already starting to push comics and toys and things to a kids market (ah, the 80's!) so it may not have seemed like the movie was out-of-line with that. I had several cap-firing "Robocop and the Ultra Police" toys!

There was a movie called The Harrad Experiment with a young Don Johnson that I watched on HBO when I was about eleven. In one scene Don is walking around wearing a very long scarf and nothing else. The scarf moved.

I saw the French movie series Angelique when I was younger than 12. It's the one thing my parents told me I couldn't watch. But I had an old black/white tv on my room and watched it in secret when they were aired all in one week.

As you can see in the poster it was quite scandalous ;-)

I read the book but didn't know there was a movie. I can think of a LOT of things in the book that would be inappropriate for anyone under 18!

HBO is responsible for a lot of my 'education' when I was a 'tween.
