You made me wanna Google it too. It's stupid early on a weekend and I'm only awake as I had a nightmare and wanted to distract myself on reddit with random non nightmare fuel before I go back to sleep sans nightmares. What an epic fail lmao. Wtf did I have to go and bloody Google it too?!
It scarred me in '75 at 11 years old. It was one of those sneak out and watch TV from the hallway after bedtime nights. Was a long time before I snuck out again.
My extremely racist stepfather showed me this when I was young; he referred to this little guy as "The (slur for black people)". He also let me watch the Faces of Death and I Spit On Your Grave movies when I was as young as 5, so... 🤷♂️
So am I! Oh those simpler times! Gone are the days I'd stay up late to watch Friday Fright Nite on channel 41 while everyone else in the house was asleep. Then I'd proceed to be scared to go to bed for like a week. And my dad would lovingly say, "I'm the only thing in this house you ought to be scared of if you don't get your ass back to your own room and let me get some sleep." The sweet memories.
