I guess you can count some action or horror flicks in this category, when I was under 10, I saw movies like Robocop, The Thing, Class of 1999, The Fly, all featuring rather graphic violence. My mom and granny used to reassure me "eh, it's just tomato juice and plastic limbs, so it didn't gross me out too much.
It's funny how bloodless and sexless many action movies are these days.
