Same here. Predator was the first R rated movie I ever saw. My dad made a bet with my brother and I and we won so he rented it for us. I think was 7 or 8. Mom was not happy. So not only do I love the film for itself it is also attached to fond memories of childhood.
Strider that is really cool, I also feel the same way. Me and my sister watched it on TV at my grandparents without my parents knowing when I was 8 and she was 6. They were not happy, but I to this day think the predator is one of the best movie characters of all time.
