All movies i watched when i was younger. Nothing is really scary anymore. Except for Hard Knocks with the Kansas City Chiefs and Herm Edwards. I couldn't sleep for months.

How scary you perceive a movie has a lot to do with the atmosphere you're watching it in as much as the movie itself. I'm pretty sure I could watch 'Antichrist' on a sunny day while answering the phone and checking test messages and it would get nothing more than a grimace in certain spots. Change that to 2am, totally dark room and allowing yourself to become immersed in the movie and it becomes a 'holy shit I can't sleep' experience.
Lots of reasons out there why it's so subjective from one person to the next such as personal phobias and past experiences but I found atmosphere makes a huge difference.
I never watched that version of Hard Knocks. Herm the weekly series was more than I could take.
