Consiglio: If you have a kid that’s been traumatised by a horror movie, try watching the making of with them.

So my kid (8) was pretty thoroughly traumatised a little while back at a sleep over by The Exorcist. Nightmares, not wanting to sleep in her room, asking if stuff like that can really happen. I found a doco on the making of the movie for us to watch and some other bits and pieces on YouTube. We even watched a Regan make up tutorial. It seems to have really helped. Even to the point of getting a little cocky and saying at least she didn't faint like people in the cinema.
