1 - Do you remember when you first watched it? Theater, VHS, DVD?
Saw it on VHS. 2 - Did you get any feedback (from friends or media) prior to watching it? Pretty hard to not have heard anything about this one. The shower scene and ending had all been revealed to me through various parodies on TV shows or people singing it's praises. 3 - How was the viewing experience? Despite knowing a lot of the key moments the film was still amazing and kicked my ass. 4 - How many times have you rewatched it since? Many times including seeing a print of it on the big screen. 5 - Any memories associated with it, that you wish to share? This was the first "old" black and white film that I enjoyed as much as anything modern. |

1 - Nope! actually can't remember when I first saw it...probably on TV or VHS.
2 - Not actually. But as far I can recall my bro invited/insisted everyone in the house to watch it together. 3 - Jaw dropping! Norman's mother's voice & even her shadow on the wall or window totally freaked me out. 4 - Many times...one of my most watched horror movies. 5 - My no. 1 favorite horror film of all time!

Can't remember exactly when but it was with my siblings in my living room 2 - Did you get any feedback (from friends or media) prior to watching it? My brother was relentlessly trying to scare me since this was a time in my life when horror movies terrified me. 3 - How was the viewing experience? Suffice to say, it worked. I was pretty freaked out. 4 - How many times have you rewatched it since? A few 5 - Any memories associated with it, that you wish to share? Not really. I like it and all and own it but i never had any personal memories attached to watching this film

2. There was mega buzz on TV before I saw it. 3. Excellent! 4. Multiple! 5. My Mom - who hates horror movies - went with me and when the guy's head came out of the bottom of the boat, she jumped so hard she hit the guy next to her and punched herself in the face! :D

1. I first saw Jaws at the drive-in. It would have been around the time of its release, I guess.
2. I was very young, and I really loved sharks. I pestered my parents to take me :) 3. Loved it. 4. This is one film that I have watched countless times. I may not watch it for a long time, but will then watch it a few times in a few weeks. It never loses its impact for me. 5. Nothing specific - just one of my all-time favourite films. Definitely in my top 10 films of any genre. Quote:

This is going to sound so wrong as a horror fan as well as an admirer of one of my favourite directors, Steven Spielberg, but...I've never seen Jaws.
I've simply never got around to it. I also remember watching the first twenty minutes or so when I was very young and being very scared. I still think the part with kid gets eaten is just brutal. Strange that most horror films get an 18 or perhaps 15 certificate from the BBFC and Jaws of all things is a PG. |

I can only remember seeing Jaws sometime on tv while at school-another one I remember discussing in the playground-I do remember that Jaws 3 was at the cinema at the time cos I remember telling one of my mates that there was going to be a Jaws 4 coming out and in it Jaws would attack people on the beach so even the Beach wasn't safe lol completely made up cos she was absolutely terrified by Jaws.

I can't remember when I finally watched the film, but the buzz was powerful. I would have been 6 when it came out, and I frequented the Long Island beaches at the time, so talk of sharks was constantly circulating.
It is one of the greats that I watch on a regular basis.

2. Actually, what first made we want to watch the movie was riding the Jaws ride at Universal Studios on a family trip. It totally blew my mind. 3. As a 6-year-old, there's nothing much more awesome and enthralling than a giant killer shark. 4. Maybe 3 or 4. 5. Not really, just the experience of riding the attraction at Universal. I obsessed over seeing it after that. My parents got me this souvenir from the ride; it was the shark, halved, with two suction cups on the inside so you could make it look like it was going right through the window. I played with that thing constantly.
