As a kid, I had learning disabilities and proper meds to treat them took a very long time to find and it never truly kicked in until high school where I both had proper meds and the motivation to do well.
There were simple aspects of stories I may understand, Vader being an example of that but if someone were to ask me why Luke and Han Solo were together, I wouldn't know and trying to get me to understand would only confuse me.
The Terminator movie is one I very much like when i watched it in college but I didn't see Terminator 2: Judgement Day until yesterday.
I absolutely loved the movie but I'm glad I never saw it as a kid, as I said, there are some parts of a storyline that I may be able to comprehend as a kid.
The scene where John calls his foster parents is one that for sure would've petrified me as a kid, it's quite scary even as an adult seeing the complexity of the new T-1000 series that's able to shape-shift into any human it comes in contact with and use their voice as well.
I initially felt that the T-1000 actor was acting too human, showing emotions and expressions when talking compared to the very robotic personality of the T-800 but his "zero fucks given" attitude when pursuing John got my attention quite well.
The way the T-800 tests John's foster mom by referring to the dog as "Wolfie" when the dog's name is "Max" is something I might've caught as a kid and when the John's mom calls the dog "Wolfie" that verified that it wasn't John's foster mom, it was the T-1000 trying to get him to come home.
This would've petrified me as a kid, just the idea of a completely indestructible robot that's able to shape-shift was coming to kill me would keep me up. Although I might not have understood that scene despite how chilling it is and that's why I'm glad I didn't see it until now where I can experience it for the first time with no spoilers.

“Burnt Offerings” was the first movie to terrify me as a child. I learned that movies are make-believe and how they’re made and ceased to be afraid. In fact, they became my very favorite. Then one day, years later, i was at my cousin’s house watching “Halloween” on HBO. The sequel started immediately after. SPOILER ALERT The shape is shot and subsequently falls off a second floor balcony in the end of the first movie. He has apparently gotten up and walked away from the scene at the start of the second. My uncle turns to us and says, “You know that can really happen right?”. Then proceeds to tell us horror stories about people on PCP surviving gun shot wounds and falling off four story buildings and such. Ell oh ell! I didn’t sleep well that night. Haha!
The ring actually scared me and my dad lol we watched and I could not sleep at all, not even during the day lol I was a teenager I think when I saw it. Everytime the phone ringed my dad would jump lol
