He most likely is. He never gave any kind of explanation:

I don't understand how you can be uneasy around girls if you spend six or seven hours a day in a room with them, and have done so since the age of four.
I am still not understanding this.
The Mysteries of Life... :lol:

I didn't say I wasn't, I said that I wasn't in this way.

Reminds me of how on my Win 3.1 PC, I was afraid to interrupt the timer before it'd automatically boot into DoS 6.22. (You could skip the timer and just enter Windows or DOS.)

I was afraid of a sumo when I was small, thinking it would crush me.

Jumpstart 4th grade had a haunted theme that scared the living daylights out of me.

Me too. I honestly don't think it's as scary as people say it is. "Heeeere's Johnny" is win though. :P

I found it quite scary, perhaps because I was eight years old or so at the time.

I don't really understand your point of view. This movie is all about the atmosphere...

My point of view is that the movie seemed so boring and slow-paced to me that it didn't manage to drag me into its atmosphere or interest me in any other way.

The film isn't really about action or 'things happening' as such. It's about the tension and the atmosphere, and the way it inexorably builds to a climax which would probably be quite shocking if it hadn't been absorbed into pop culture the way it has. It's a psychological horror, not a splatter film...

I'm not against slow build-ups; the one in The Shining I didn't enjoy at all though. After all the strange going-ons in the hotel I was expecting some kind of explanation but no, the plot is just that weird.

It's just one of the best movies I've ever seen, and as DesLife said, it's hardly scary at all, but it's all about the atmosphere. That part at the bar is memorable.

I was thinking about that very part. Lloyd gives me the shivers anytime I see that scene... fantastic character.
