    (Not sure if this belongs in this forum or not)

    Anyway out of all the cartoons you have seen, which scenes scared the crap out of you?
    Try to include clips of them if you can

    All Dogs Go To Heaven
    When he has the nightmare of about going to Hell

    Pinnochio
    When the boys start turning into donkeys/ Monstro

    Sleeping Beauty
    When Maleficent appears in the fireplace and puts Aurora into a trance leading to her "doom".

    Anastasia
    Her nightmare on the ship

    Spirited Away
    When her parents turn into pigs / No-Face eating people.

    Fantasia
    Night on Bald Mountain scared the **** out of me

    A few others too, will not discuss now, ( too traumatic :P )

    I don't think I've watched any of those movies...
    Might have watched pinnochio ages ago but don't remember anything from it...

    Coraline was pretty spooky but won't put it into "scare the crap out of you" box. That's reserved for Dead Space...

    The bit in Finding Nemo where he gets butt raped by the whale.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,597 ✭✭✭dan1895


    A few of the scenes in Orwell's Animal Farm.

    When the Horse is taken away or at the end when they are becoming what they replaced.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,595 ✭✭✭bonerm


    There was a good few scenes in a movie called "The Secret of NIMH" that scared me (slightly) as a small kid.

    - The rats getting sucked into the ventilator shaft
    - The visit to Nicodemus's lair.
    - Main character getting chased by Brutus.

    Very atmospheric childrens movie anyway.

    I dont like the directors cut either.

    seriously though, the end of Watership Down scared the crap out of me as a kid, I think seeing rabbits being torn apart isnt exactly something a 5 year old should see on a sunday afternoon

    +1 on all dogs go to heaven

    the lion king, when scar plunges his claws into mufasa and tosses him off the rock.. horrid.

    aladin, that feckin bit where the cave yoke is fallin in and it has a big freaky face..


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,784 ✭✭✭KungPao


    When I first saw this movie as a kid, I was a little freaked out.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 492 ✭✭Sl!mCharles


    The scenes with the crazy frothing-at-the-mouth rabbit in Watership Down, and the part when Bigwig gets trapped in the snare.
    sniff

    Must have completely blocked that out. Don't think there's anything scarier in the animated sense.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    Its not animated but the Wheelers in Return to Oz, still fcuking freaky


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    watch it! fcuking hell how did this movie ever get a U cert?

    Damn son, never saw Watership Down , but thats fcuked up for kids.

    (Isn't that the music from Command & Conquer Red Alert?)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,239 ✭✭✭✭WindSock


    I can't think of many at the minute, but there are loads of scary kids programmes from the 80's.
    I agree with Watership Down being freaky though. And Coraline was a bit dark.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,297 ✭✭✭Jaxxy


    So much for sleeping tonight!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,605 ✭✭✭Fizman


    Those fcuking Wildebeest!

    Mufasa never stood a chance! :(

    the original scooby doo cartoons were pretty hair raising too

    oh and the smurfs too :eek:

    damn you OP bringing back all these memories:mad:

    Sounds very like it. Wish i still had my ps1:(

    Most of the old Disney films had parts that wouldn't make a kids film today.

    Not sure this counts as scary, but:

    not animated but ghostbusters used to make me **** me jockies

    Yeah why is that? Why don't they throw in a bit of death and stuff....we all turned out normal enough ...kinda :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,629 ✭✭✭magma69


    I smoked a spliff just before I watched Beowolf and that scene with the screaming monster scared the absolute bejaysus out of me.

    Also many of Ren's completely insane nervous breakdowns in Ren and Stimpy.



  • Registered Users Posts: 645 ✭✭✭dagdha


    Wurzel Gummidge freaked me out.

    I remember seeing it when I was really young and it did'nt bother but then I seen it again a few years later and it creeped me out big time. Just the state of Wurzel in general and then changing his heads and Aunt Sally aswell..... Shudder.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,772 ✭✭✭✭Whispered


    the lion king, when scar plunges his claws into mufasa and tosses him off the rock.. horrid.
    memories of sitting in the cinema sobbing my heart out.

    :(

    Also coraline was disturbing!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,311 ✭✭✭✭K-9


    Yeah, Mufasa met a horrible end.

    More recently, Wall-E was very dark and probably prescient.

    Mad Men's Don Draper : What you call love was invented by guys like me, to sell nylons.

    Watership down. :(

    I trusted it because of it's cartooness.
    It scarred me forever.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,090 ✭✭✭jill_valentine



    This is pretty awesome/unsettling. I've thought about looking up the rest of this film, but I understand that's the only bit like that in it, so I might prefer it in isolation.

    Wurzel Gummidge used to freak me out big time as a kid. There was always something sinister about that show.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,419 ✭✭✭allanb49


    The Real Ghostbusters cartoons could be quite freaky

    One where they're in a hospital and covered in some slime and ears eyes mouths start growing out of their chest.

    Another one where Peter was posessed and trying to kill the others,

    Very dark kids show


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,466 ✭✭✭Snakeblood

    The Sandman, a british animation from 1992. Fantastic stuff a creep fairytale.

    Very moving film as the movie moves to its end.

    Christopher Lloyd in who framed roger rabbit scared the crap outta me when I was young...

    I'm glad i saw watership down as a kid, if I was older when I saw it it wouldn't have been as deep an experience. It is what came to mind when I saw this thread title however, it was the scene with the bloody field that came to mind. Something about that was powerful to me as a kid.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,711 ✭✭✭keano_afc


    Darby O'Gill and the Little People still gives me the creeps, "highlights" being the Bean Sí and the carriage at the end. Again, it got a U cert? Scary stuff.

    I think now I'm older only now am I really appreciating bits of it.

    For instance, the villain speech has to be the best one out there (WARNING! HUUGE SPOILER! Kinda think he looks like that developer Carroll in this scene.



    From this bit until
    Judge doom gets dipped
    it gave me the heeby jeebies.
    ESPECIALLY the Doom Melting. I didn't get the concept of the toon inside the rubber suit so I was all f*cked up over it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,714 ✭✭✭✭Earthhorse


    Yeah, Watership Down and the end of Roger Rabbit are both quite scary.

    The original LOTR animated film, that was taken for the recent films. The scene with the Ringwraith in the woods. Starts around 5.15



  • Registered Users Posts: 6,980 ✭✭✭wyrn


    Return to Oz - scared the crap out of me. It's so messed up. I think at the start they lock Dorothy up and tell her she imagined Oz. Yer one with all the heads as well. Horrible horrible childrens movie.



    The Last Unicorn always made me really teary.



  • Registered Users Posts: 41 red_eskimo


    Professor Screweyes in We're back! A Dinosaur's story used to freak me out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,227 ✭✭✭The Highwayman


    Not an animated movie I know but this gave me the sh1ts, I did'nt sleep for weeks after this. Some kids movie and what even worse I was about 13 at the time(big baby)



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,650 ✭✭✭sensibleken


    The pink elephants thing on Dumbo


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,004 ✭✭✭jimthemental


    Martgueritaville by South Park. Hit the economic crisis dead on, you could hold a mirror up to Kyle at the end and what the imf are doing to us.

    Only saw watership down last year but still thought it was fairly fúcked up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,461 ✭✭✭--Kaiser--


    Watership Down.
    Why was i shown that film in school when I was only 6 years old I'll never know

    Yesss! I love that episode, that series dealt with stuff way over kids heads, I love the one where they play a baseball game to decide the fate of the world, or the one where they wind up inside the containment unit dealing with all the ghosts they've captured previously. Theres even a Citizen Kane themed episode.

    I know what I'm doing this weekend, finding old ghostbusters episodes :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 121 ✭✭jennytightlips


    1) watership down
    2) the neverending story (the bit with the wolf in th bushes)
    3) "the count" in sesame street...maybe it was the thunder n lightning in the backround? lol or just cause i was only about 5
