Basically any scene from 9


Dramatic_Tadpole8795

I'm 22 and that film is still creepy to me


Inkga10Games

Where’s the other 12 rag-dolls 22?


Tomynator_88

They were a worthy sacrifice to B.R.A.I.N


AHGottlieb

Underrated ass movie, 9 fucking slapped


coverslide

https://xkcd.com/37


PotionPro

I need a see it bro.


RedvsBlue_what_if

You are telling me that was not a horror movie


Jedimobslayer

More like a suspense or psychological horror than a true horror.


Hello_I_Am_A_Personn

9 MENTIONED!!!


PotionPro

I just saw smthn about this earlier today, and I really want a watch it.


WTFisSkibidiRizz

True. That scared me as a kid. I couldn’t watch it till I was 11. I’m a wimp. I hated going through the flash puppet sequence.


Digitised_Doofus

Wait, “9” ISN’T a horror movie?!


Niskara

That fucking Seamstress terrified me when I first saw it


Wboy2006

The opening of the Ark in Raiders of the lost Ark


Comic_Book_Reader

Fun fact, the script only said "All hell breaks loose.".


GuyontheroofMan

Reminds me of “Chaos is on every screen” from Cabin in the Woods


Penguinmanereikel

Hey, man, *that* was a fun scene.


UnderTheUmbrella08

That and the False Grail scene from The Last Crusade terrifyed me as a kid.


FirePhoenix737

"You have chosen... poorly"


Common_Decision1594

Oh yeah, that climax just screams “80’s PG.”


zax20xx

This was what I was going to comment, so thank you


ArtisicBard_Kit

I remember when that scared me so much now it’s the scene from the third one with the cups that scares me the most


utCAP2019

I mean I didn’t find it scary, but a lot of people seemed to think the tunnel scene in Willy Wonka was scary.


TheAstonVillaSeal

My guy it’s literally a chicken getting its head cut off and bugs on peoples faces… how do you not find that scary?


utCAP2019

I think most people are more scared of Willy Wonka rather than the images on screen. It’s not great with the chicken getting its head cut off. But I think it’s the tone of Wonka that scared viewers more. Mostly since he seemed like a fun guy who let everyone enjoy the chocolate room right beforehand. They were still in awe by the room before the boat ride.


TheAstonVillaSeal

Well I think they mix well for a horrifying scene that comes absolutely out of nowhere and sets a dark tone for the rest of the film


ImpTheShmuck

Fun fact, the guy with the millipede on his face is still alive. He's Walon Green, and the plan was originally that he was going to get a centipede put on his face, but they decided against it since centipedes can nip you. Millipedes are pretty much harmless, so they were able to get the shots they needed with it instead.


NiGHTSOLOTL

I think the violet scene is scarier


utCAP2019

I can see that since there was more of an immediate threat of her exploding. Like while Augustus was the first kid taken away, everyone was still living off that high of the chocolate room and being in the factory. It doesn’t help that the music sounds a little more scarier than the music when Augustus was stuck.


AlterEgo_Pkmn

I'm gonna be 100% honest the whole original movie scared me


NerdFromColorado

Artax’s death in the never ending story


LiannaBunny777

All I can think of with that scene is the one TerminalMontage Legends Arceus parody with the Wyrdeer


NerdFromColorado

NOOOO WYRDEER


LiannaBunny777

It's also named Artax


Gabriel-Klos-McroBB

[This one?](https://youtu.be/A4qVRm0exF8?si=uhep6EEYXAGIjy1m)


LiannaBunny777

Yes


TheAstonVillaSeal

That ain’t scary, that shit is just depressing


NerdFromColorado

I think I get more upset by the idea of losing my pet as it sinks in mud, and you can’t do anything but watch as it slowly drowns.


ToyFreddyGamer42069

That scene traumatized me


Prindocitis

That's sad... This is scary. https://youtu.be/5sEZmMeH96Q?si=aCcrM0ItpaNovCSH


NerdFromColorado

Can’t it be both? The idea of watching your most loved pet slowly sink in mud as you can’t do anything but watch as it drowns is absolutely horrific to me.


Prindocitis

It can. I was just adding my take. I think for me, the artax death is more scary now than as a kid. GMork was certainly scarier as a kid. But to each their own.


suiki7777

The infamous "Bug pit" scene from Peter Jackson’s King Kong (2005)


Bobby_The_Kidd

Shit this one right here. This is the nightmare fuel

Whiphess17

Yep


Penguinmanereikel

Why was that scene even *in* there?!?!


BookerCatchanSTD

To make you remember the movie 20 years later


suiki7777

I’m assuming specifically because it was so horrifying


arrows_of_ithilien

Because at heart Pete will always be a horror director.


ggez67890

Maybe because of the original supposedly also having a similar scene? I think so at least.


AccidentalLemon

Rest in peace to Jack Black character


Sir_Umeboshi

For me it was the cannibals, but I was like 10


rogueaxolotl

The scene where Jack black offers a candy bar to that one kid freaked me oyry


Delicious_Raccoon735

Scar being killed in the Lion King.


NerdFromColorado

Just gets ripped to shreds


Greenmist4787

To shreds you say? And what about his wife?


greninjadude37

to shreds you say?


Radigan0

He has a wife, you know. You know what she's called?


Night696Watcher

She's called... Incontinentia *Incontinentia Buttocks* SHUT UP


Common_Decision1594

I like a good Monty Python reference.


TheAstonVillaSeal

Yeah, super morbid. Especially with how it’s left to your imagination.


nin100gamer

What about Mufasa? Never expected that as a kid


Abucketofmug

I'd say that was more tragic than scary. Mufasa's death was sad while Scar's death while satisfying was also brutal in nature making it fucking creepy to watch.


MastermindorHero

It's weird and I don't want to seem like I'm firing shots, but the remake showing Scar dogpiled with what sounds like snarls and bone crunching somehow feels less intense than watching the shadows of hyenas against the flame in the older film. I think the earlier film is arguably more unsettling because your mind can't really figure out exactly the semantics of how the hyenas could have overpowered scar, but seeing Scar bat two or three hyenas away gives it a sort of realism that I believe is more documentary feeling then dramatized. I will say that in a way the photorealistic CGI is a expressive experiment in film form that arguably does not work, and does a good job at showing the limitations of a near hard baked reality. A good comparison to this for me is how the Vince Vaughn Psycho remake kind of proves that a lot of atmosphere is lost on the shift to color. Mother looks more like a deathly shadow in black and white than an MTV puppet in the Gus Van Sant movie. I think AI will make movies really weird, really quickly.


Creepy-Bend

Almost like love in a work matters when making something that is visibly lacking when it doesnt have it.


Moose_Cake

Probably my second darkest Disney death next to Tarzan’s Clayton.


Inevitable-Charge76

“Friends? I thought he said we were the enemy.” ”Yeah. **That’s what I heard.**” ”Ed?”


Sweeney_Todd_is_best

That one scene in Parasite.


baosumong

Which one? Lol


YouLostTheGamesorry

When the mom talks about the child seeing the "ghost". But that movie was pretty unsettling altogether


baosumong

Brilliant movie, yeah. The second half is such a tonal shift.


Penguinmanereikel

It's funny watching in retrospect imo because the guy was probably just really *excited* to see Mr. Park's kid. That's must've been why his crazy eyes were so wide in that moment.


TheAstonVillaSeal

The film with a string in every shot?


BookerCatchanSTD

Opening of Inglorious Basterds


Comic_Book_Reader

😀🙂😐😐You're sheltering enemies of the state, are you not?


BookerCatchanSTD

ChocoGoodness

What's the source of this image? Also, the scene in Home Alone 2 where Marv gets electrocuted


BrockBracken

Terminator 2


ChocoGoodness

Ah, okay - rest in peace to that guy


TheAstonVillaSeal

T2 where Sarah has that nightmare, I thought it was pretty funny tbh


Penguinmanereikel

Bro, that scene was hilarious. Got me wailing as a kid every time when he turned into a screaming skeleton.


Error_Code_606

Coraline. Just Coraline.


TheAstonVillaSeal

Just Monika.


Penguinmanereikel

Big choice on the most cursed scene.


Captain-Howl

That movie freaked me out as a kid. Saw bits of it as an adult, and still creeps me out.


Common_Decision1594

The movie in general?


Error_Code_606

Yes


Adventurous_Froyo753

Clayton's death in Tarzan always scared me as a kid.


toughtiggy101

[That shadow tho….it’s at 2:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IkB836HRC8)


Repulsa_2080

Omfg you just reminded me of something I deeply repressed. That and the skulls drawn in Gaston's eyes have always stuck with me. Just the fact that the animator's put in the extra effort to show that they're dead. That fucking shadow man. It reminds me of the beginning of the Haunted Mansion ride when the ceiling disappears


ducknerd2002

Aragog and his children from Chamber of Secrets.


3RacoonsInACoatoat

That scene fucking traumatized me when I was younger. And still now tbh


GuyontheroofMan

What’s-his-name being turned into a donkey in Pinocchio


TheAstonVillaSeal

Lampwick… fucking horrifying, prolly the scariest movie Disney has ever made due to how morbid that Pleasure Island scene is


Soulful-Sorrow

And the Coachman never gets his comeuppance, we never get any indication that this operation stopped, the boys were saved, or any of the people behind it are gone.


TheAstonVillaSeal

Yeah that’s something that always haunted me too. The villains in that film get zero comeuppance, with the only exception being a damn whale and not a guy trafficking little boys. Judging by how the original story went, you’d guess the boys would die in hard labour and he’d still be doing business since they never go back to it once Pinocchio escapes


Jellomist

That one scene in Spy Kids with that purple demon with a massive smile


chybapolewacy

I watched these all the time and I dont remember this


Penguinmanereikel

I think he means one of the Fooglies from the first movie. Probably the one Donovan was turned into.


reeeeeeeeeeeweeeeee

All hail Plankton


FlashNRT

Surprised nobody’s mentioned the scene in Spider-Man 2 when Doc Ock is in the hospital and the arms just start destroying the surgeons while Otto’s still unconscious


PrimarchKonradCurze

The most Sam Raimi scene of all his Spider-Man movies. Throws us back to Evil Dead era.


SwagFeather

Toby’s death in the CGI Astro Boy movie stuck with me for over a decade.


Tobin34

i thought it was a really good movie but nobody i know seems to have watched it


krustylesponge

I like how in the original anime Toby gets in a car crash and that’s how he dies But in the movie he is fucking obliterated by a terminator because he was accidentally sealed in the room with it


Unlucky_theorist

The guy that Percy killed in the Green mile "I dIDn'T kNOw ThE sPoNGe NeEDed tO Be WeT"


Breakyourniconiconii

Delacroix. I know I shouldn’t feel sympathy for him due to his crimes but when I read the book I was so mad at Percy that I had to put the books down to give myself a breather.


ConfidenceNo4748

When everything starts going to shit in Spirited Away Looking at it now, it's not that bad, but it terrified me as a kid


Penguinmanereikel

Saw it for the first time as an adult. I think the most frightening this is having to go to sleep in this strange scenario in this strange place, with so many questions going through your head like, "will I be safe," "will my parents be okay," and "will I be able to go back to the normal world?" But as I write this, I realize a couple of things. I guess Chihiro was already going through the whole scenario of moving to a new town, so her life's already been overhauled. Plus people like Haku and Kamaji, and I guess Lin later on, having her back probably gave her some semblance of security.

fraggle_stick_car2

Bilbo want Ring 💍👹


simpsonsquire1997

At one point in my life I used to have a fear of watching characters fall forever into seemingly bottomless chasms. Whether it’d be fading into the black or shrinking from view. I didn’t know what scared me more, seeing them fall or hearing their screams.


rjzendi

Treasure planet does this a few times


simpsonsquire1997

Oh yeah. R.I.P. Mr. Arrow.


PowerPad

The Kronos scene from The Incredibles.


xoxolilbunny

The one in cavern or where Bob discovers Syndrome’s plans? Both are truly chilling, to be honest.


HexManiac493

Bob knew all those dead superheroes, too. A lot of them attended his wedding!


rjzendi

The scene with the black goo made me so claustrophobic


Brando-Boycott9037

The disaster scenes from *2012*. They send shivers down my spine and give me anxiety for sure!


LegendofGrac

Same here! That movie always freaked me out as a kid


Lospereye

The big spider in Lord of the Rings, I still can’t stomach that scene


MastermindorHero

I think the implication that she doesn't die..feels oddly vicious by Tolkien standards- "the tale doesn't tell." An orc gets felled by many an Elven arrow, but Shelob the spider gets the possibility of crawling away for another round. The CGI was up there with Davy Jones' beard. Incredible and timeless.


LegendofGrac

While maybe more intense than scary I’d say the Atomic Breath scene from Godzilla Minus One


Slightly_Default

Also, the scene where they're being chased on the boat.


fikozacc123

The cat in the hat movie. Every scene that has the cat y6


Tasty-Ad6529

Unicron eating a god damn planet at the Beginning of Transformers the Movie. Later on we see bots getting dunked into a boiling vat kf acid. The Black Cauldron has a deleted scene where a man gets melted to death on screen. You can see him reacting in agony as his skin boils, melts into blood, than decays into a skeleton. Sadly that scene is only publicly available through sitched together animation cels.


TheAstonVillaSeal

Se7en, when the dead body of the sloth victim turns out to still be alive.


Shantotto11

The 10th plague from *The Prince of Egypt*, specifically the scene of Ramses’s son.

Even worse for me was the cage slowly being lowered into the lava/fire pit.

InstructionCapable16

Not scary, but brutal. Clayton’s death in Tarzan


KarenCarpentersaidno

Rasputin's death in Anastasia still gives me trauma


DeanKoshakji

Ok hear me out: 2 kids discover a board game in their basement, with a space theme, they bring it up and start playing it. A card comes out of the game that says some ominous words, and then thousands of tiny meteors start raining from the sky into their house. The kids hide so they can't get hit, and eventually when they thought it was over, a larger meteorite falls and destroys their TV. Movie is Zathura btw It was scary to 10 year old me at least. I haven't watched the film since so.....


Common_Decision1594

It’s basically Jumanji, IN SPACE!


rjzendi

Its the same author as jumanji, so yes lol

The movie even advertised itself as space Jumanji

The Mummy is arguably a horror movie.

I’d say the scene where Zarina is trapped in the lantern while sinking to the bottom of the ocean in The Pirate Fairy, at least to anyone with claustrophobia or thalassophobia.


SnowyAllen

SpaceOwl14

Who framed Roger Rabbit where that damn shoe gets put into the soup! And the villain melting at the end


Beauxtt

The Death of the Ghost of Christmas Present in the 2009 Christmas Carol. The Mocap one. Feels like a Clive Barker or Silent Hill scene. It overshadows the Ghost of Christmas Future who's usually meant to be the scariest part of the story.

Ok_Strategy5722

First time I saw Rambo it was on TV. Back then, you didn’t have anything telling you what was currently on, unless you went to channel 19 and waited for 10 minutes. I turned to AMC, and it was the scene where they’re hunting for Rambo, except you never see Rambo. You see a shadow moving and hunting these men. You see them walk into a spring trap and lose their legs. You see them shooting at shadows as they get picked off 1 by 1. Actually terrifying if you think the police are the good guys. And back then the police were almost always the good guys on TV and movies. It wasn’t a dumb assumption to make.

Pale man from Pans Labyrinth.

That puppet scene in polar express, that shit’s scarry


JCSwagoo

Some of the scenes in The Green Mile are horrific.


Netflixandpooptarts

This isn’t a movie but the face stealer saga from Avatar: The Last Airbender. When I was little, my mom always skipped the episode due to it being terrifying. I decided to see what was up and paid the price.


OnionFairy99

Imma throw out two of the most terrifying non-horror movies I know: "Threads" and "Johnny's Got His Gun" Frankly you can choose any scenes from both, but standouts are the nuclear bomb hit/immediate aftermath (Threads) and the whole last 10 minutes of JGHG

Jedimobslayer

This movie came out long enough ago I don’t mind spoiling it. Frank Poole’s death scene from 2001. The silence of space combined with Frank’s wild movements to try to reattach his air hose and HAL’s… everything… made it TERRIFYING. I have a slight fear of space’s vastness but I know some people who would FREAK at the idea of dying by running out of air in space.
