films That Scare(d) Me (in no particular order)

posted by BB2010

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
I liked to watch Snow White when I was little because I liked to sing along and I loved the dwarfs but the Queen and the scary forest always scared me so much when I was a kid. I always had to fast vooruit, voorwaarts through all the scary parts

Fantasia
I loved the entire movie. The part that scared me was NOT the trex bit in the dinosaur scenes (in fact, I loved to the watch the trex vs stegosaurus fight) but the thunder storm part in the centaur/unicorn/pegisus/fauns/cupids scene and Bal Mountain (ESPECIALLY Bald Mountain) Even now I can not watch the Bald Mountain part without needing to cover my eyes a bit.

Pinocchio
This is one Disney movie I will never watch ever again. I love Pinocchio (the character), Gepetto, Figaro, Cleo, and Jiminy Cricket but there's some stuff that happens in this movie that really scares me. The donkey part always makes me cry a little because I think about how those boys work in the salt mines and the circus as donkeys forever and no one helps them and no one outside the island knows what happens save for Pinocchio but it doesn't even toon that he's going to tell the authorities about what's going on. My own mother doesn't comfort me about this; when I was a kid I asked her what happened to all the donkey boys in this movie and she would tell me 'They went to hell because they were sinners.' It's not that my mom is a cold woman, she's just religious like that. And Monstro was one of the reasons why I used to be too scared to go swim in the lake even after my mom kept telling me Monstro didn't live in the lake. I can't even go on the Pinocchio ride in Disneyland because this movie scares me so much.

Hunchback of Notre Dame
This movie doesn't scare me as much now, but Frollo was one villain who gave me nightmares when I was a kid and the Hellfire scene didn't help much either.

Sleeping Beauty
Maleficent was another villain who scared me a lot. And the scene where Aurora was in that trance and following that little green ball of light to the spinning wheel to prick her finger with that creepy muziek playing in the background made me too scared to be alone in the dark for weeks

Brave Little Toaster
2 words: Scary. Clown.
and there was the junkyard scene when the 'master' was almost crushed to death

starlight77 I never really noticed anything being evil about Hunchback. I was so obvious to a lot of things in Disney movies though. I did get scared during some of the parts you were too though. I was more afraid of Pixar movies than any other Disney movie though. Monsters Inc scarred me for life.

Animated_Paint Snow White, Pinnochio and Sleeping Beauty all scared me as a kid too! My parents never let me see HOND as a kid but now the 'humiliation' scene freaks me out! The Disney scene that scared me the most as a kid would have to be when Horace and Jasper steal the puppies in 101 Dalmatians though. Good list :)

TheCrystalRing I thought for sure Watership Down would be in here...guess not.

BB2010 I've never even seen that movie :P

SweetPea2007 Watership Down is awesome! I love that book! My kids love Fantasia, but they turn it off before the last song.....And I have not let my girls watch HOND....I might when they are older.....

fadake1234 watership down scared the hell out of me and the brave little toaster scared me to

rosemina Frollo is by far my favourite villain.He 's unbelievably evil. When I was a kid, I watched Snow White and the seven dwarfs only once, because the hag freaked me out. Recently I watched it again and now I love it. The music when Aurora is in trance scares me too.Fantasia is the greatest disney movie ever and one of the greatest movies in history of cinema! But A Night On Bald Mountain was the most creepy scene in a disney movie.

girsmurf22 how did the brave little toaster scare u? dat toaster was mah idol as a kid XD one of the best movies in my hildhood actually :3
