Actor Morgan Freeman admits to being terrified of monster-adventure film "King Kong" when he first saw it.

The actor said that the film was the first movie which he saw and it scared the "daylights" out of him, reports contactmusic.com.

"The first movie I ever saw was 'King Kong'. It scared the daylights out of me. I was six and had dreams for a long time about that ape. I had moved from rural Mississippi to Chicago, where there were telephones, indoor plumbing, and - a foreign thing to me - movie theatres. I immediately fell in love. They were such magical places," Freeman told Bang Showbiz.

 

The 76-year-old Oscar-winning actor has been seen in films like "Driving Miss Daisy", "The Shawshank Redemption" and "Million Dollar Baby".
