Well yes movies have become more and more violent over the decades, originally films were silent and more slapstick violence and then it became more shootouts and then you jump to the 1980's and movies like Alien and Terminator and now you look at movies like Saw and Hostel and you realize a trend.

What are some good scary movies for kids?

Well, kids shouldn't watch scary movies at all. It depends on how old the kids you're talking about is. If the kid is old enough to understand that scary movies are NOT real, then I guess I would recommend some old horror movies that aren't too violent and scary. NOTHING at all like Friday the 13th, ESPECIALLY A Nightmare on Elm Street, the Halloween movies, etc. Probably something black and white or something not TOO scary, for we are talking about kids. However, if they do understand horror movies aren't real and/or become teenagers, I'd try to let them watch something more scary, like one of the movies I already mentioned. I hope this helps :o) PS. Here, I'll list a few movies that might be kid appropriate if they believe horror movies aren't real and want something not too scary: (Minor ghost movies) Wolfman might be good (No, not the remake, probably too violent) Dracula movies Anything black and white The House on the Cemetery (This movie is alright, but not too suitable for minors...) Maybe Carnival of Souls (Once again, not the remake. But maybe the remake would be alright...) Whatever else you think isn't too violent~

Does violent video games and movies make people violent and more likely to commit crimes?

No violent games/films don't cause that behaviour. Its that parents blame video games/films for teens being out of control, doing drugs, gang-banging, etc. But as I said before violent games/films do not cause this behaviour. I should know because I've watched "violent" films and played "violent" games since I was little. I am a normal adult and am non-violent.
