My parents were kind of lax when it came to supervising my media intake

My favorite movie as a kid was RoboCop

Wore down the bootleg VHS my dad bought from a guy who sold them in the parking lot of the factory he worked at

Mine weren't lax, but they were more making sure what I watched wasnt mindless pablum more than anything else. I got a big book about special effects from the library over and over and even tried some stuff from Evil Dead before seeing it. So I wanted to see the movies themselves and it was really lucky they rented evil dead 2 instead. My dad who eas raised on Looney Tooms and stuff loved it. I for sure saw both Robocop and Alien before I was in school.
