Remember how you'd go to school one day and all the kids would be huddled around this one kid. This one kid - who always seemed to be the same kid - had just seen that movie. You know, that movie that none of us were allowed to see. Which, of course, made us want to see it that. much. more.
We wanted to see these movies for the exact reason we shouldn't see them. We knew they were either "naughty" or scary and that made the wee children of the 80s eyes fill with stars. They called out to us from the posters at the theater or the box at the rental store.
It should be noted that just because our parents wouldn't let us see these movies didn't mean we didn't. Kids are sneaky and resourceful.
