Top Ten Scariest Movie Scenes Not from Horror Movies

The Top Ten
Face Melting (Raiders of the Lost Ark)

I don't know how they got that scene into a PG movie. Really, people's faces start to melt off and one even explodes!

Sloth (Se7en)
Dr. Doom (Who Framed Roger Rabbit)

I watched this at night. He was the scariest villain I had ever seen.

He's a judge... For the record.

But he's still kind of frightening.

We never got to see his true form after he melted.

Donkey Transformations (Pinocchio)
The Tunnel (Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory)

I saw this movie in theaters not too long ago when a movie theater near my house re-released it. The first time I saw it was when my dad bought it for me on DVD. I kept flinching and covering my eyes during that part. It's so scary! I'm watching the movie right now.

Couldn't cope with it as a kid and still can't cope with it as an adult. It seemed really unnecessary, to be honest.

I'm thankful I never saw this scene when I was really young.

Decapitated Horse (The Godfather)
Large Marge (Pee-wee's Big Adventure)

I was watching it and got so scared, I paused it and had nightmares. I thought she was watching me in my sleep.

Makes you think twice about truckers - ghosts? Really creepy!

If Large Marge can do that to her face, does this mean she can shape-shift?

Curb Stomp (American History X)

My brother showed me this scene. I cringed so much. It was probably one of the most violent and scary things I've seen in a while. Just the thought of you getting curb stomped is painful. It should be in the top 4.

The Librarian (Monsters University)
The Witch Transformation (Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs)

The transformation scene is pretty intense for young kids.

The Newcomers

? "Toddlers Trashing The Toys" Sequence (Toy Story 3)
? Giant Ants Scene (Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull)

It's in the 4th movie, was it? I forgot. I haven't watched Indiana Jones in a few years.

Anyway, this scene scared THE HECK out of me. I think I even got a fear of ants for a few days after watching this movie.

Maybe it's just me being a coward? I don't know.

The Contenders
Night On Bald Mountain (Fantasia)

One of my favorite scenes from Fantasia. It's dark, creepy, and phenomenal.

Bug (Matrix)

Well done to whoever made this scene. I saw it when I was 7, by accident. I'm 20 now and still won't watch it because the thought of watching it makes me feel sick. It plagued me with nightmares until I was about 14. When the film is on TV, I delete the channel temporarily in case my curiosity gets the better of me, or worse in this case. I bet it's not as bad as I might think, but I'll never watch it.

I was hoping this scene was on here because it scared me a lot when I was little. I was only 4 years old when I saw this. This still creeps me out, especially when his mouth started disappearing. I'll definitely give the people who did this scene some credit.

False Grail (The Last Crusade)

After I saw this scene, I thought, "No. I can't go on with the movie. It's too awful." But then I continued because I proved to myself that I'm not afraid and that it's just a movie.

The Pink Elephants (Dumbo)
Tetsuo Turns Into a Giant Mass (Akira)
The Lion Scene (Jumanji)
The Librarian Ghost (Ghostbusters)
Darth Vader Burns on Mustafar (Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith)
Senator Kelly's Death (X-Men)
Frollo's Death (The Hunchback of Notre Dame)
Why So Serious? (The Dark Knight)
Hospital Massacre - Spider-Man 2
Nuclear Nightmare (Terminator 2: Judgment Day)
Dracula's Angry Face (Hotel Transylvania)

I have to admit, it did scare me as a kid because it happened so suddenly.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's Baby (Junior)
