True Story: I didn't watch the full, uncut film until a couple of years ago. I can remember seeing parts of it on commercial TV as a teenager and being scared witless. But I have to admit that seeing it so many years later was something of a downer. It was a landmark film for its time, and still considered one of the scariest movies ever, but I don't think it has aged very well. Or maybe I have. I was impressed at how they managed to make it with what seems to have been a pretty tight effects budget (most of which I assume went towards the make-up).
And at least it doesn't have any of those (now seriously over-used) scenes where a character is dragged off by an invisible force. (this is my attempt to stay on-topic)
Yes, that was a pretty scary film at the time. I've never felt the need to watch it again, tbh.
