I think it was Alien, which seems to be a pretty popular choice here. I was about 5 or 6 years old. I remember sneaking to watch it on HBO...scared the living crap out of me.

I don't even remember. My mother was an avid movie goer, and even more avid about her horror movie's. I grew up, from such a small age, watching horror movies, that I don't remember the first one .. The only thing my mother did not approve of was nudity at a young age - so she made me cover me eyes when ever there was a nude female in the movie. Of course, I always peeked - so I don't even remember the first breast I saw in a movie.

oh, darn, I see now that the first R-rated movie I saw was Silent Night, Evil Night (1974).....when I was 12......wow.....I wonder if that movie would still scare me now...

I'm not entirely sure but I think it was Private Benjamin.

The Reincarnation of Peter Proud

My brother, who was 12, read the book and convinced my dad to take us to go see it at the theatre. My father was stationed at Carswell AFB in Ft Worth and was good friends with the Chaplain (Minister) of the base and decided to invite him along at the last minute. As both the chaplain and my father were pretty well known on the base, alot of people came up and said hello and then kind of looked at my brother and I (I was 11 at the time). Then the movie started and then it was sex and nudity as far as the eye could see. I heard my father and the chaplain start talking, almost arguing, and all of a sudden we were out of there.

I'm not exactly sure what happened that night but I do know this:

1) My dad yelled at my brother the whole way home.
2) My dad's frinedship with the chaplain never was the same
3) We actually started going to a new church
4) Dad never took us to another R rated movie
5) The chaplain got transferred about 2 months later
6) My eyes were stuck open for the next day or two...

Risky Business.


Ohhh that subway scene

In the theaters? Animal House, no doubt. I was 7. There were boobies. Got some nifty Batman action figures from Sears afterwards. Went to Beefsteak Charlies for dinner. What a great day!

The first "R" film I saw was also Robocop on my father's old betamax player. The box of that film scared the crap out of me as a kid!

The first "R" film I saw at a movie theatre was "Robocop 2" while I was on vacation in Florida! I had to see the sequel there b/c it was not playing anywhere near me in PA!

how about the first time you saw a R rated movie without a parent or gardian. Tomorrow, Freddy vs. Jason, even though I've had my licence for about 6 or 7 months now, there hasn't been a R rated movie that I've wanted to see that my parents wouldn't want to see.

The first R-rated movie I recall seeing on television was "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre". I was 8 years old at the time, and even though it was edited for television it still left a lasting impression and started my love for horror movies.

The first "R" on home video I remember seeing was "The Terminator". I was over at a friends house and remember his mother telling us to cover our eyes during the infamous "eye" scene.

And finally, the first "R" film I saw in theaters was "Total Recall" back in 1990. The alien hooker with 3 boobs was definitely a memorable moment.

It was Silence of the Lambs. We were in Miami for an Amway convention and my parents hired a baby sitter. Not a very good one apparently since I was what, 9 or 10 and my sister was four, but I don't think she really watched it.

I also watched a Friday the 13th movie when I was young. It was the one in the camp where the guy gets an ax in the head.

I'm not sure it was the first adult-rated film that I saw, but in 1973, when I was 16, I saw "The Harrad Experiment" which was the first time I had seen nudity on the screen. And with its full-frontal nudity and thematic sex it was such a quantum leap over anything I'd seen before that it left a lasting impression.. Thankfully I was able to find a DVD with the UNCUT version of the film..the one that I remember. Nearly all DVD's just have the severely edited TV version of this PD title.

A Nightmare On Elm Street when I was 5 - my cousin, two months younger than myself, took it from his parents collection and brought it to my grandparents house, where we watched it in the basement; they thought we were watching Star Wars. They came to check on us as the movie was ending, and completely freaked out when they saw Freddy on screen.
The second R movie I saw was Friday the 13th Part 3 when I was 6.
Surprisingly, neither one scared the ***** out of me - rather, I became hooked on Jason from that point on, and I'm still a huge fan 16 years later. I never was a Freddy fan, but after seeing FvJ four times, I had to go back and re-watch the entire ANOES series this week.

There are two of them: The Exorcist, but I really didn't watch it; I was 11 years old and had my hands in front of my eyes throughout the movie.

The first one I saw all the way through was Thunderbolt & Lihgtfoot (Eastwood, Bridges, George Kennedy). Gt trated to my first glimpse of boobs. BIG boobs.

My parents let me see non sexual nudity since I was very young... but I can't recall the first violent R rated film I saw.
