Line 4:
Of course, in [[Real Life]], a lot of children enjoy a good horror movie. At least depending on their age.
 
If this trope pops up in a kids' sitcom, it will almost always overlap with [[Can't Get Away With Nuthin']]. See also [[Girls Are Really Scared of Horror Movies]] and [[Scare 'Em Straight]]. When something like this happens in [[Real Life]], see [[What Do You Mean ItsIt's Not for Kids?]]. It can sometimes be [[Inverted Trope|inverted]], where adults are terrified of the film but kids love it. (See also [[Fridge Horror]] for that case; perhaps the kids don't ''understand'' [[Adult Fear|why the events of the movie are something to be afraid of]].)

Line 48:
* ''[[Pepper Ann]]''
** Pepper Ann gets invited to a slumber party where they will be watching the R-rated film "Gutter Clowns", which Lydia warns Pepper Ann against seeing. At first, Pepper Ann tries to stop the girls at the party from watching the film, but ends up watching it anyway, and is terrified for the next few days.
** Subverted with her friend Nicky watching the movie right next to her, and she's amused by the [[So Bad ItsIt's Good]] [[ClicheCliché Storm]].
* The ''[[Tiny Toon Adventures (Animation)|Tiny Toon Adventures]]'' episode "Duck in the Dark," where Plucky watches a marathon of "Eddie Cougar" horror movies, including one that has him attacking a screaming [[Bambi (Disney)|Bambi]]. It ends up giving Plucky horrible nightmares.
