The one film that made me feel most scared is not really a film but a series of horror films. I saw each one of these series over three consecutive summers in a small cinema in a resort town. The series which I'm talking about is Nightmare on Elm Street.
When I saw the first episode of the series I was fourteen years old, and I was frightened throughout all the film.
Probably, I couldn't sleep well at that night because I still had in my mind the horrible film's character Freddy Krueger.
The terrifying character Freddy, who stalks and kills teenagers in their dreams was becoming a great success among the young and adult people of the 80s.
The following summer I went to the cinema to see the second episode of the Nightmare saga, but instead of being frightened I laughed at the sight of the film's scenes.
I was so disappointed by that movie that I started wondering why I wasn't being affected anymore by horror films, and I figured out that I had grown up.
If everybody is scared by Freddy, why go to see his film?
