The cover of Whitley Strieber’s new one is almost even more kindertrauma-inducing than the original artwork that started it all. 😅 #ufosky

Ernest P. Worrell's tenure at Touchstone comes to a close with this seasonal slapstick outing celebrated by a generation of millennials who mark the Chiodo Brothers' incredible troll creations as legends of kindertrauma. Even when its silly Varney’s specific brand of comedy still delivers the goods.

This kindertrauma scene from Nutcracker Fantasy (1979), a Japanese stop-motion animated film by Sanrio, loosely based on the Tchaikovsky ballet.

Ragman, a mysterious old man who roams the city looking into people's houses and turns children into mice if he catches them up past their bed time.

I've only seen ORCA once. I was seven. It was at a drive-in. And that opening was waaaaaaaaay too much for me.

Giving the 4K a spin. Always fun to revisit kindertrauma in high-resolution.

Well, good to have my memories of The Velveteen Rabbit back again. #KinderTrauma
People like to say that Gen Xers are as Hardcore as we are because we drank from fucking garden hoses and had little to no supervision from our absentee parents, but really I think we're all just fucked up from all our trauma bonding in childhood.

After the long string of recent childhood-icon-gone-murderous movies, finally we have one that’s really good.

Questions to ask of this evening's kindertrauma blues double feature:
- Who would do this to a child?!
- Why am I doing this to myself?

Crispino’s THE DEAD ARE ALIVE (1972), with its masochistic rogues gallery of chronic scene stealers thriving on steady diets of Etruscan coulisse, is an underrated giallo masterwork of glorious nastiness that makes excellent use of tropes like a shoe fetish, kaleidoscopic flashbacks & kindertrauma.

A fun foray into kindertrauma! Some moments that rival Return to Oz. Pacing lags a little but it looks beautiful. Robards and Pryce are so great! That library scene!

Thanks for following along as though I’m not constantly watching horror year round anyway. 😂 Happy Halloween! 🎃

Let’s just say I’m not pressing play below; this is the Lord of my kindertrauma. You can’t make me.
Not a movie. The TRAILER for the Anthony Hopkins movie, MAGIC. Sweet baby Jesus, that gave me nightmares for months.

ook het idee dat kinderen het hun ouders nooit kwaad zullen nemen dat ze hun opvoedtaken hebben uitbesteed aan een robot. talloze verhalen van welgestelden die het aan niks tekort kwam maar die desondanks een kindertrauma overhielden aan het feit dat papa en mama de opvoeding overlieten aan de nanny
