> zo1's anecdote shows that at least some kids get lifelong anxiety issues from watching horror/slasher movies at an early age.

No it doesn't.

It shows that at least one person has lifelong anxiety issues that they attribute to having watched horror movies.

I don't have anxiety issues and I watched horror movies at a young age, maybe I would have anxiety issues if I hadn't? Maybe on average it has a positive effect on anxiety? Maybe it's completely unrelated. You can't draw any conclusions from a couple of anecdotes
