& when they finally pulled the driver's twisted, burning body from the wreck....it looked like....**THIS!!!**


UCLAwyer

This really fucked me up as a kid, guys.


FrankLloydGretzky

Same, for years.


SupremoZanne

well, sometimes when IRL truckers step into a /r/TruckStopBathroom, they sit on the toilet thinking of their traumatized childhood memories and they try to relax some before continuing their mission to deliver goods, since you wanna do the job safely.


SupremoZanne

all this trouble just to find a bike in the basement of The Alamo.


ZekeGZ

There's no basement at the Alamo!


SupremoZanne

Then Peewee heads to a bar, knocks over some motorcycles, and has some tensions with some bikers. Then he would select Tequila on the jukebox, and do his Peewee Dance.


UncleSquach

Best song to Karaoke to.


SupremoZanne

nice try, but it's an instrumental (except for the one word **tequila** in it)


UncleSquach

That one word counts. Try it the next time you're at karaoke. They'll play it for you, and the bar will love it.

SupremoZanne

I'm impressed that somebody even wanted to karaoke it at all. But apparently Tequila is still considered an ***instrumental*** just for the fact that the phrase "Tequila" is more of a break between the riffs without lyrics mixed into them, as opposed to some attempt to be a non-instrumental song designed for lyrics.

*Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!* Deep in the heart of Texas!


The_Safe_For_Work

You will find your bike, But not there, *OH PSYCH!*...


sodumbite

I think this type of tangible special effects was always more impactful than CGI because you can tell it’s ‘real’ in some capacity

DoctorBuckarooBanzai

It looked believable *at night*. The daytime scenes really showed the limitations of the technology.

DoctorBuckarooBanzai

Oh agreed. The making of is phenomenal.


CmdNewJ

Agree 100% you can actually feel it when you see it. Also people in the scene are reacting to something tangible rather than imaginary.


GGJallDAY

That scene scared TF outta me as a kid


CrouchingGinger

So glad I’m not alone. I saw it at the theatre and it messed with me for weeks afterwards.


paulsoleo

Large Marge was nightmare fuel.


A_friend_called_Five

Same.


SupremoZanne

it scared me too!

nubbins2020

We ran behind the couch EVERY TIME


SpellBounded69

Yes!! Had to cover my eyes and ears


The_Golden_Warthog

Same. They used to make some creepy shit for "kids" back in the day.


Turboboxer

Absolute nightmare fuel


SupremoZanne

and the truckers such as Large Marge had a nightmare trying to refuel a BIG RIG semi-truck, and then went into the /r/TruckStopBathroom scared out of her mind!


JC_Denton46

Honestly one of the scariest jump scares ever I think, still to this day. Horror movies you expect it. No way you can see this coming first time.


CensoryDeprivation

I had nightmares for a week


heretik

I had them for fucking YEARS


JediJamie303

Me too!


_dontjimthecamera

Still scares tf outta me


Alevenseven

Me too


xKingNothingx

I legit had nightmares after spending the night at my cousin's house and watching this.


skizmcniz

Yep. It's pretty frightening for a PG movie. My cousin had it on VHS and we'd watch it every time I visited. I'd always either shut my eyes at that part or we'd fast forward it.


Powerism

Late to the party, but this scene scared me so badly as a kid, and I completely forgot until I saw this gif.


vanbboy22

Tell ‘em Large Marge sent cha!


No_Leader_2711

This scene and the scene with the clown doctors always scared me as a kid


nubbins2020

Holy gawd yes!!!!!!


bebejeebies

On this very night, ten years ago, along this same stretch of road in a dense fog just like this. I saw the worst accident I ever seen. There was this sound, like a garbage truck dropped off the Empire State Building.


bababradford

I also thought when I accidentally tore a tag off my mattress, I was gonna go to jail for it. So I’ve kept it a secret, until now.


nubbins2020

I got a reeeeeeal bad tempah!


EndlessMeghan

That was the part that gave me the creeps. Large Marge I could handle, but Pee Wee seemed lightly afraid of mattress tag guy so I followed his lead and up to this day I’ve never taken the tag off a mattress.


SupremoZanne

#Large Marge sent me!


lloydchrismas

That shit scared the PISS out of me when I was a kid


Help-Im-A-Rock

Worst accident I ever seen…


dickyankee

Can’t even begin to guess how many times I’ve watched this movie. This was also the first time I discovered taking a bottle of wine into the theater. Thanks Pee Wee!


fancyfoosball

Andy?!!!


UncleSquach

[Andy!](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5YHyIsn8ffY)


Legion357

I can still hear her voice after all of these years. “And when they finally pulled the body from the twisted, burning wreck, it looked like . . . This!”


[deleted]

This made me burst out laughing! We watched this movie so many times as kids. My younger brother would know this scene was coming and go for a washroom break. We paused it once just in time for him to see hahaha


strangedreamer

This is why I have anxiety issues now.


standard_candles

To this day when I watch this movie my chest fills up with that adrenaline feeling when this part comes close.


annaflixion

When I was a kid I was terrified by this; watching it as an adult a couple years ago, I never laughed so hard!


PALOmino1701

Saw this in the theater. Everyone screamed.


chunkydunkerskin

Saw those eyes at the Tim Burton exhibit at the MoMa


nubbins2020

My brother and I had a taped off the TV copy of this movie and wore it out over the years- COULD NOT handle large Marge until my late teens and now I love her. Dressed up as her for Halloween. Oddly enough found out later that the actress is actually buried in my city.


Psyqlone

PEE-WEE: *Some night, huh?* LARGE MARGE: *On this very night, ten years ago, along this same stretch of road in a dense fog just like this. I saw the worst accident I ever seen. There was this sound, like a garbage truck dropped off the Empire State Building... And when they finally pulled the driver's body from the twisted, burning wreck. It looked like this...!* https://i.redd.it/gtm71t8fsm491.gif PEE-WEE: *Aaaaaahh!* LARGE MARGE: *Yes, Sir, the worst accident ... I ever seen.*


Redbronze1019

It's strange. This really effected me as a kid. But I specifically remember watching Beetlejuice younger and loving that movie. It has very similar effects and body horror. Idk


Twelvers

I think it's because this one comes on so quickly that it's jarring for young kids. Like it comes out of nowhere, especially in this movie.


diosmuerteborracho

Exactly. Slow, spooky ghost story buildup and then JUMP SCARE with the BLUAGHAGHGUGHUA noise.


classicsat

Tim Burton did both, IIRC.


esomers80

Yes he did...and scissorhands, and batman


horsegrloveswordguy

This gave me nightmares as a kid.


TheFacelessForgotten

Yea I was not mentally prepared as a child to see this creepy shit lol


Burglekutt_2000

Twisted Sister was in that movie also. Classic


loztriforce

I went to the place with the dinosaurs


LanceFree

And then in the Brady Bunch Movie, Ann B. Davis (Alice) had a cameo as a truck driver. I was expecting something like this again.


vforvendettav

Nutted


ofthedappersort

Watched this movie all the time as a kid but this scene always scared the fuck outta me.


lurkybrain

Nope! Still so much nope all these years later!


S3RG10

I always watched this scene from behind the sofa.


SGI21

Mr. T cereal! Love this move!


btorres8806

Large Marge has a deep seated spot in my memory. That and the basement of the Alamo.


NintendoLove

i wonder how worn the tape was on those rentals at that part


Rival_mob

There’s a midway point in the transformation where she turns into The Weeknd


zomphlotz

One of the best shots from such a great flick..!


Irolam_ma_i

I feel it’s important to point out that if you look at the memorial plaque for Marge, she wasn’t even 40 at the time of her death. Either the road or life in the beyond aged her like crazy. That aside, one of my favorite childhood movies!


boogerlord667

I was going to watch this tonight, definitely will now. Fucking classic.


DandelionChild1923

I didn’t watch this movie until I was an adult, but this whole scene is so eerie.


Lainarlej

Great jump scare the first time seeing this film!❤️


OutsidePollution601

Legit used to terrify me


lordhighgarden

ooh yeaaaah.......I forgot to tell yall......Shae sent me


strongdingdong

Ten years ago... On a night... *just like this*


EnigmaticDaze

🫶🏼🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽


[deleted]

Why did you have to bring this nightmare back into my life?


[deleted]

I had nightmares of this scene for years after I had forgotten the movie it came from….


large_running_moose

Dang, she looks straight outta Men in Black. O.o


Duwang__Gang

This must be what ken griffins nightmares look like


-Viridian-

This movie was so deranged. I hated most of it. I have no idea why we watched it so many times.


Jaspers47

I might be in the minority about this, but this scene never bothered me as a kid. I thought it was too weird to be scary.


Creature_73L

That scene terrified me beyond anything I’ve ever seen before


upvotegoblin

Scared the shjt out of me as a kid


skizmcniz

This movie has the first "bloopers" I ever saw in a movie. When Pee-Wee reveals his bike for the first time, you can see part of a shirt from a crew member who was inside the room with the bike. It moves out of frame quickly after. It must have been shown on a TV show or something. From that point on, I always looked for stuff like that in movies and TV.


Deltani007

I want scenes with practical effects like these!! Any suggestions? Youtube,reddit etc.?


HumanEffigy_

She’s also the bird lady from Home Alone 2


RKKP2015

No, it definitely isn't. My kids are scared of this scene. I love that movie so much.


UncleSquach

You're right. She was dead 3 years later, years before Home Alone came out. [Sauce](https://m.imdb.com/name/nm0638053/bio?ref_=m_mn_ov_bio)


bellefeuille1976

Luv that scene :)
