To be surprised Return to Oz is a PG certificate?

[Bluewavescrashing]

Watched this evening on Disney Plus. Electroshock therapy in a freaky hospital. The Scarecrow's face. The Wheelers! Screeching headless witch.

Absolutely brilliant film but it scares the bejeesus out of me! 😱

Yes this still haunts me now.

Bloody terrifying.

Scared me to death as a kid. The Wheelers are so creepy and the pumpkin head man is horrifying.

The only thing I liked was the lunchbox tree? Or have I made that up?

I think 12A

Not quite a pg but not a 12.

It is a scary film

I love the lunchbox tree 😁🥪

Yes, Jurassic Park is scary for a PG. I was impressed when my 5yo watched it without flinching and shrugged, saying, it's just a story. I was scared age 12 watching it in the cinema.

A great film but I did think that Momby and the Gnome King were scary.

Yes this film is terrifying! The whole head removal thing. I always get ill over Christmas (burnout) and this film was the only thing on while I was convalescing!

Purplesquirrell DD (6) has watched Jurassic Park. I thought she’d be scared but she thinks it’s brilliant and hilarious in places!

Exactly that's my point things we found scary when we were little kids don't anymore. Not as much

And yes she was in The Craft

@fedup21 the watcher in the woods gave me nightmares for years as a child! I bloody loved return to oz though

This still scares me, it's a terrifying film!

Still can’t watch it - those heads just freak me out.

Oh god the wheelers! I forgot about that film, I loved it as a child.

This film is fucking insane.

It is massively scary! All the "damaged" children in the basement.......

Omg I loved this (also terrified of it) as a child, so dark and brilliant! And it’s on Disney plus!!

I discovered DD watching The Mummy very, very late one night when she was five.

She loved that movie long before there was a cartoon version.

I'd thought that children had been taught to be scared of anything except the most innocuous things in the time since I was a five year old mad about Dracula, The Wolfman, Frankenstein's Monster and suchlike. But apparently not.

I blame Scooby Doo for this resilience

I have the dvd and watched it the other week. I can't believe I watched it as a child but then I also loved Legend (Tim Curry as a huuuuge demon) and many other dark fantasy films yet realistic horror scared the crap out of me.

I probably wouldn't let my 7yo DD watch it yet but she tends to dwell on scary things so would probably expect the wheelers to be hiding in the dark.

It the surreal 80s aspect that gets me! I find the same with labyrinth and the never ending story

I’ve not seen this film in years!

Remember the princess being tapped in the mirror and she’s all blurry, like a ghost?

Nowifi Fairuza Balk also played The Worst Witch, which in my opinion is the best film ever made and shits all over Harry Fucking Potter 😉

Oh my yes. I seem this flash up on Disney + and it instantly gave me palpitations. I was petrified if that film as a child. Terrible film!

Omg is return to oz on there used to scare the shit out of me

I watched it again the other day, it’s bloody horrific!!!
Anyone remember a Disney film called ‘watcher in the woods’ I seem to remember that being a bit 😳 too

Is that a chicken in there with you?

@fedup21 that’ll teach me to read the thread, I see you have been damaged by watcher in the woods too...
