The Horror Movie That Impacted Me The Most

It's another Twitter-enabled writing assignment! This one was so much fun. I don't remember how or why I started following Jonathan Barkan, a writer for Dread Central, which is like the Pajiba for horror movies and tv shows. But basically he posted a call for contributions for an idea he had: over 40 writers contributing their personal stories about the horror film that impacted them the most. I was almost jumping up and down and clapping with glee when I got the confirmation email. 

And now, 377 words later, we're here! You'll have to scroll down quite a bit if you want to get straight to my contribution (there were a LOT of submissions), but I think you should read everyone's submission.
