I'm old 
I remember me and my best friend getting all dressed in suits to look older to go see "the Exorcist"
(the hype was huge , they had Ambulances outside some movie theatres because of the supposed shock etc , bring ID etc)
So we saw it , and then went to the pub and drank lager.
We spent our bus fare so we walked home. Well there was a shortcut through the graveyard that knocked about 10 mins off the walk.
We walked round it. 
Tried watching the movie recently

First time I saw The Exorcist, it was making it's debut on HBO and they the typcial "R-rated Discalimer" where they told you the goodies the movie had that earned it an R rating, then they had an additional warning (kind of a "we really mean it this time" thing). I begged and begged my parents to let me watch it...
well, myself and my friends watched it (our parents were there as well) and I couldn't sleep for about a week after that....I was about 9 as were my friends and had been raised closely to the Mormon religion, so the movie was even scarier (I've always been afraid of Catholics anyways, this isn't something new to me ;-))
It also didn't help that I had a crush on Linda Blair at the time....
