Which "kids" movie scared YOU the most? Let us know below, and be sure to also check out our video of the Top 20 Darkest Moments in Children's Movies – https://youtu.be/LMgfYX3Fz4U
The Black Cauldron and Rock a Doodle scared the living daylights out of me as a kid. Definitely not letting my kids see those until they're older.
You should include "The Black Cauldron" in that list.
I can't believe Labyrinth is listed as number 1!!! My sister and I both absolutely LOVED that movie as kids and didn't find it frightening at all. We watched it all the time. The Firey's song was actually one of my favorites. However Watership Down scarred me for life. It still haunts me how terrifying that movie was. I also remember being scared of The Dark Crystal and parts of Secret of NIMH. But Labyrinth was awesome!! My sister and I loved singing along to the songs.
Uhmmm Coraline was not scary at all…What was scarier was the book. not the movie in the movie everything is a lil more tame then in the book. :/
Nightmare Before Christmas was actually kinda cool to me as a kid, so what is scary about that?…Just the ghouls?…
I watched coraline when I was 2 or 4-
Guess what? I didnt cry, squint, I didn't even scream!
Now it's my favorite movie, last year for halloween I dressed as her! Blue hair, Butterfly clip, everything!!
Watership Down is an allegorical novel, comparing the politics/era it was written.
The Child Catcher gives me nightmares to this day. Also, though not a theatrical movie the Zuni warrior doll in the ABC movie "Trilogy of Terror" is the only other thing from entertainment that still gives me nightmares.
I’m glad return to Oz is on this list. I was goddamned terrified by this movie. Mombi scared me, the Nome King scared me, the asylum scared me, AND the Wheelers scared me. But now I’m older, I really enjoy the nostalgia of being creeped out by the movie
Am I the only 32 yr old that's never seen Coraline
the films were great msmojo get a grip and no one forced you to watch anything
All Indiana Jones movies including the LEGO video games were the best part of my childhood ❤️.
Something wicked this way comes. I was an adult when I saw it and it scared the daylights out of me. I young sister and her friend were young teens and they slept with lights on that night
As a kid, I did see the films on this list along with the ones in the honorable section too. However, the films in this video were nothing compared to a lot of the other films I got to watch as a kid. Films like THE EXORCIST, THE SHINING, every horror film that was released from 1978 to 1988, and CLASH OF THE TITANS that was released in 1981 where Sir Lawerence Oliver played Zeus. And, like a lot of kids I went to school with, I watched the world premier of MICHAEL JACKSON'S THRILLER on MTV in December of 1983.
How about Pinocchio and the Emperor of the Night?
"Rango" was not warm and fuzzy but it was hilarious and I loved it.
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory doesn’t make it in this list?!
Coralline was the scariest book I couldn’t finish both times
well most of these i don't think were for kids
I Love The Nightmare Before Christmas
Here's a few more honorable mentions: Anastasia, Secret of NIMH, Land Before Time and An American Tail. All directedby All Dogs go to Heaven director Don Bluth. That man was a master!
From what I understand, Bambi's mother's death gave kids nightmares
You know these “kids movies” are terrifying when you hide into your big brother’s bedroom. Not your room, not your parents’ room, your older brother’s room!
And then there’s that one time I walked into that infamous scene in Raiders of The Lost Ark during my parents’ movie date night in the living room… because I wanted attention iirc? Whatever the reason was, I certainly received the scariest karma from the screen that night. Good job, younger self! (Slow claps)
My dad made me watch Watership Down as a kid and it made me cry and traumatised me.
What about the last unicorn that movie was awesome but it has some scary parts like the bull and that vulture like bird in the side show
I'm surprised not to see the original charlie and the chocolate factory in this
I wouldn't change anything about having seen those movies. Not one fantastically terrifyingly disturbing moment. ❤️🧡💛
Rikki Tikki-Tavi is another good one. 👍
These movies are legit crazy I’m going to go get milk I can’t do this no more.
David Bowie is kinda sus
3:40 my favorite movie of all time
Return to Oz!!! For real!!! Judy Garland as “Dorothy” in MGM’s masterpiece from “1939” was originally a rightful use of dark “wicked witches “ and “flying monkeys “ and no “clown like wheelers” “creepy heads “ and “jack the pumpkin head scarecrow “ 2013’s Disney banner under “L Frank Baum” and “Sam Raimi “ of “Oz the great and powerful “ made the 1939 origins of wicked witches and flying monkeys more scary without “Return to Oz” embarrassments to “L Frank Baum” and there’s also the scariest stuff in “Pinocchio” besides “pleasure island “ every boy “is turned into a donkey with dark unexpected tensions because they’re real not wooden like pinnochio and monstro but “Stromboli “ threatened pinnochio after pinnochio just would go home to gepetto rightfully and “scary Stromboli “ locked pinnochio in a birdcage too!!! So psycho and no goblin king takes a baby sibling like “creepy evil David Bowie “ in “labyrinth!!!!
Legend with Tom Cruise
The witches ones still creeps me out
"E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial" (1981) traumatized me when I was 2 years old. Especially those horrible people in space suits & especially during the scene when they defibrillated him.
I had a crush on Jennifer Connelly, when I saw her in Labyrinth.
None of these scared me as a kid….probably because I was watching this stuff as a kid. Ah, the good ole 80's.
How could anyone forget Hocus Pocus! That one marked me for life!
The first time I ever seen gremlins I was extremely young I only seen a small part of it before my dad told me to go in the other room but I had already seen the gremlin get blown up in the microwave💯😂
Gremlins cute little Furby looking things?? No Furbies looked like gremlins That’s why the company got sued and had to completely redesign Furbies💯
Raiders if the list ark definitely freaked me out at the end mostly because it was supposed to be god doing it.another show that freaked me out was that story book short tail about Hansel and Greta jone Collins plays the witch and Ricky Shrouder plays hansel that did get pretty scary in parts.
You could have just called the list the top 10 movies from our childhood that today's over sensitive snowflake kids couldn't handle today.
"Stand By Me" is rated R. Why the hell is it on the list?
