Return to Oz- the wheelers haunt me still

Grave of the fireflies - because depictions of firebombings, a toddler starving to death and a ten year old dying of radiation sickness isn’t traumatic if it happens in a cartoon.

Frankenweenie: a child brings his deceased dog back to life! Found this a grim notion for a children's film. It was Tim Burton though!

Labyrinth is a U.

A You Afraid of the Dark.

Clawdy that exact scene was what came into my head when I read the thread title! I remember DS1 being about 4 and watching that and thinking that ho was a word to call people/things which are dirty (with mud) Confused He'd picked up enough to realise it was something you call people, and had no familiarity with the garden tool. Bizarre film.

The Brave Little Toaster is full of nightmare fuel.

OneHanded · 18/04/2020 23:43

The last unicorn. Terrifying as a child, equally terrifying as an adult.

RaskolnikovsGarret · 18/04/2020 23:44

Coraline. Terrifying.

SentimentalKiller · 18/04/2020 23:44

Watership down upset me but as a young child I was properly traumatised by chitty chitty bang bang

tontie · 18/04/2020 23:44

Jaws
Coraline
Return to oz

SentimentalKiller · 18/04/2020 23:45

We love Coraline. It's not fluffy though😁

tontie · 18/04/2020 23:45

eerie Indiana, loved it though

pastacaring · 18/04/2020 23:48

The Last Unicorn still haunts me.

tontie · 18/04/2020 23:48

I think I watched Jaws too young, it stopped me from ever being able to enjoy the sea, water skiing & para gliding is a definite no 😂

sproutsandparsnips · 18/04/2020 23:51

I thought poltergeist was 15

UnderTheIroningBoard · 18/04/2020 23:57

Watership down is a U I think and terrified me as a child!
Agree with the witches, horrible film for children.

LloydColeandtheCoconuts · 18/04/2020 23:57

Just came on to sing

"Have you ever, ever felt like this?
Have strange things happen, are you going round the twist?"

PeanutButterIsOneWord · 18/04/2020 23:57

Yes yes to the witches and graveyard of the fireflies.

Also The Black Cauldron. It's an unsuccessful Disney film. Kind of a fantasy horror, but so graphic

Yamihere · 18/04/2020 23:59

Plague dogs. It's about a couple of dogs that escaped from an animal experimentation lab. Creepy animation like watership down. Same guy wrote both books.

Canadianpancake · 19/04/2020 00:03

Goosebumps. That ventriloquist dummy is horrible!

MissingLinker · 19/04/2020 00:03

Scooby Doo on Zombie Island Blush
Watched it with DC years ago and it properly shit me up.

Pinnacular · 19/04/2020 00:04

The Queen's Corgi. PG. Absolutely dreadful. This is a spot on review 'deeply unpleasant and in no way suitable for children' www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/reviews/the-queens-corgi-review-animation-donald-trump-elizabeth-dogs-a8987021.html

HeIsAVeryBadBoy · 19/04/2020 00:06

That 'Mrs Peregrine's School for Children' film, or whatever it's called.

That fucking thing rips his eyes out! That's not normal!
