Well, two movies that people found so terrifying at a video party (when I was about 13), that they put magazines over their faces were The Prophesy
(1979) and mainly Superstition/The Witch (1982).
Those were the days when tipsy dads would get into black clothes and scare the whole slumber party, by suddenly appearing at the window. I guess the
covert garden-bashing brought out their military training.
Perhaps it was good practice for a few years later, when one really didn't want dad to peer through the window in horror.
But then I'd keep my Warlock video for last (one of the series, where the medium gets possessed, and it's suggested that she has her eyes cut out with
a crystal), and then the guy's mom intervened and said that this went too far, because it was Satanism!
And she gave me a glare, as if I had filmed it personally!
Never mind that a gay guy just had his tongue bitten off by the Warlock!
But I only realized that in hindsight.
There's also a Warlock scene where he changes somebody into a modern art sculpture with eyes.
Others find this funny, but that was really disturbing!
