      That movie STILL creeps me out and I watched it as an adult the first time. I don’t know what it is exactly that did it, but the way they hid their appearance from you much of the movie was a big impact.

      Oh my god thank god I am not the only one scarred by that movie (sorry).

      I was also around that age I believe and that night I had a nightmare of an alien coming into my room.

      I even watched war of the worlds before signs which tells kind of a more grim story but it didn’t come close to signs in scare factor. I guess signs feels really relatable with the family setting and them getting attacked in their house which most people would consider the safest and most comfortable place in earth.

      I really should see signs again to get over it.
