Before anyone bugs me for the original HERE it is: www.deviantart.com/sukoshi13/a…
FYI This is MY honest opinion, I won't have anyone saying it's insulting just for being brutally honest (like someone did with the other I don't like this meme I posted), if you try to be funny by saying you don't understand it, I think you need reading/vocabulary lessons.
* How It Was Built Up - The shriekers' first appearance (Tremors 2). It's all one big chilling paranoia build up that gave me and my sister goosebumps when we first watched the movie. It's nighttime, Earl and Grady wait for Pedro the plant worker in his pick up truck, but after seeing what became of the Graboid, the truck is off in the distance and then suddenly stops. After waiting a while, Earl and Grady head on over to see what's going on—finding the truck all chewed up. Grady then spots a pair of hands tightly clutching the truck's cab, but then he sees that the arms are all that's left of Pedro. "Oh, God!" "It's a whole new ballgame - a whole new goddamn ballgame!"
Then finally we see the shriekers and the damage they do... THIS is the graboid stage that scares me the worst.
It Jumped Out At Me - The intro and the host of Tales from the crypt (live action one) I watched it once with my sister wondering what it was and... we literally very nearly wet our pants when the Crypt keeper himself pops out of his coffin laughing maniacally. Sure the comics, a lot of the episodes were really good and I still enjoy the animated version... but the live action intro still gives me the chills even today.
* It Was Insane - The opening of the ark (Indiana Jones and raiders of the lost ark) watched it with my dad, yet another frightening scene from an action movie with Harrison Ford. The moment the spirits that emerge from the Ark turn hostile is utterly nightmarish. At first, they're serene - even beautiful, as Belloq declares - and then they suddenly start to shift into skull-faced terrors, snarling at those daring to look upon the open Ark. And what happens to the three Nazi villains was sheer nightmare fuel.
* It Was Grotesque - The Skeksis Emperor’s death. Emperor's SkekSo's deathbed scene, by then, he already looks like one of the walking dead. He's literally gasping for breath and fighting to keep his royal scepter, hissing at the Chamberlain and all the other skeksis "I...am... still Emperor... I ha..." and he breathes his last, then his body crumbles to dust. Brr! Scared me and my sister when we were little girls.
* It Was Graphic - The peeper beetle punishment, HOLY SugarHoneyInTea! I'm not fond of SkekTek either way, but damn, this punishment was just brutal!
Ritual-Master: When we fail ourselves...
Skeksis: WE MUST BE PUNISHED!
Ritual-Master: When we fail each other...
Skeksis: WE MUST BE PUNISHED!!
Ritual-Master: When we fail our Emperor...!
Skeksis: WE MUST BE PUNISHED!!!
Scientist: Mercy! Mercy!! MERCY!!!
An utterly terrified skekTek getting his right eye eaten right out of the socket by a peeper beetle, while surrounded by the other jeering Skeksis. The beetle actually forces his eyelid open before chowing down.
Gruesome!
* (S)He Nearly Faced Death - Couldn't find a better picture to illustrate the point. The poison gas seeping into the forest and bringing death, the atmosphere then seeing little Michelle run into a house full of the fumes then Abigail running after her, only to find the former's parents dead.
* (S)He Was All Alone- This clip from the Mummy (1999). Poor Mr Burns, his glasses were broken by that worm Beni and he's lost, fumbling around in the dark tunnels of Hamunaptra, looking for everyone. Even if Imhotep hadn't gotten him, the scarabs and the traps probably would've. And it's still kind of sad how he died too...
* (S)He Was Malicious - The majority of the GD villains on both these shows (some from Mujer casos de la vida real count too) were psychopathic, insane, abusive, gruesome, and/or just downright evil. The harsh truth is NO amount of jail or therapy can help these real-life monsters, end of story. Period.
* It Hit On One of My Phobias - Scrooge almost falling into a open coffin no thanks to the ghost of Christmas future.
THIS and the dark talk is what fuels my worst fear especially if someone brings up that only endless oblivion awaits upon death, not fulfilling some wonderful dreams or that BS reasoning of not wishing to be born. I suffer from death anxieties everyday to the point where I need to slap myself, continue what I love and keep trying to fulfill my life goals. Hey, don't judge me!
* Of the Unknown - I remember seeing this in the Dragonball Z comics as a teen and thinking "WTH, is this DBZ or some kind of horror movie satire?" Basically what's left of Imperfect Cell's victims... The scenes of clothing littered all over the ground from hundreds if not thousands of people from Nicky Town is pretty chilling. Cell absorbed each and every one of them, sparing no one, not even children. To him, they are all just a part of his endless buffet.
Then Piccolo soon finds out HOW and it's not pretty: Cell stabs one random guy with his tail stinger, and it starts... moving, like it's drinking. The man's entire body STARTS TO MELT; his face eventually caves in, and his body is sucked up until there is nothing left but his clothes. Piccolo, who is usually stoic, is too petrified by fear to do anything but watch in horror
* I Walked In His/Her Shoes - The storm shelter scene in Twister.... except it wasn't a tornado in the case of me and my whole family, it was Hurricane Andrew! Fortunately we were all OK, even the pets.
* It Tampered With My Senses - Live action Kaa from Stephen Sommer's version of the Jungle Book, I'm already squeamish with snakes so this scene didn't help at all.
*Horrors of Humanity - on the right: The pile of bodies in Life is beautiful with Roberto Bengini. Dear Lord so many innocent men, women and children killed. And the other scene for this slot gives it a similar feeling of overwhelming horror...
on the left: The destruction of Sandleford Warren and the rabbits who stayed behind. All those poor rabbits crammed into the tunnels clawing each other, trying to get out of tunnels that only narrow and spiral into dead ends. Holocaust parallels, anyone? "Men came. Filled in the burrows. Couldn't get out. There was a strange sound. You see, the air turned bad. Runs blocked with dead bodies. I couldn't get out. Everything turned mad. Warren, herbs, roots, grass... ... all pushed into the earth."
*Horrors of Nature - The spiders of arachnophobia, good film. But unfortunately I'm already panicky about poisonous animals as it is aside from my worst animal nightmare.
*I Felt Insignificant - The destruction of the crests, you can truly feel the horror seeping right into you as the eight children's crests of destroyed and they couldn't do a thing about it.
*Of the Atmosphere - Nedry's encounter with the dilophasaur. At first, the Dilo comes across as this curious little critter with a rather cute, little cry and you think she's harmless, but then she won't stop coming near you. THEN she shows her predatory instincts upon spitting her venom into Nedry's eyes and tearing him to shreds in the car.
* Of the Sound Design - The brief glimpse right before one of the gem mutants forms in the Steven Universe episode 'Keeping it together', it felt as though I seeing and hearing those poor shattered gems' souls screaming in agony!
* I Cared for those in Peril - One of these scenes from JW Fallen kingdom, not only was I scared to death for the human protagonists, but for the poor dinosaurs that were fleeing the volcanic destruction. What? So sue me, I'm a bleeding heart for wild prehistoric outcasts!
*This Could Happen to Me - The San Andreas fault. My home country in South America has random earthquakes, and I'm terrified that possibly one of the high buildings could crumble and fall.
*It Makes Me Recall Trauma- Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Oh boy, that human sacrifice scene remains the stuff of nightmares.
* >BECAUSE AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH! - The list is long and distinguished but here's a few...
* Judge Doom's true form and his death scene.
* Stripe's death (Gremlins)
* Every single George Romero zombie movie
* The goddamned cursed burial ground in Pet semetary even the whole story plot scared the crap out of me and the very author Stephen King himself. Place makes the five deaths archipelago and Nublar look like the garden of Eden...
* Outbreak film - it's terrifyingly possibility.
