Title: Scariest Nostalgic Moments Doug Missed

Premise: Nostalgia Critic. Some moments that I think Doug forgot to mention on his Top 11 Scariest Nostalgic Moments that I think would have been worth mentioning. Monologue format. Some strong language.

Personal Comments: Here are some scary movie moments from my childhood that I think Doug should have mentioned in his Top 11 Scariest Nostalgic Moments list. Now, I know Doug picked out his own ones, and I totally respect that. I'm just putting in my own opinion here.

Some of Doug's picks I agree with, even though some of the movies he picked I had not seen. I still think some of his picks were very scary when I saw them, and some of the ones I hadn't seen were pretty scary. The moments that I agreeed with include:

-The Wicked Witch of the West

-The Tunnel Scene from Willie Wonka And The Chocolate Factory

-Snake from BeetleJuice

-Ghost Busters

-The Child Catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

-Large Marge

-Judge Doom

And you know something? You know how he keeps thinking that that one moment from Care Bears in Wonderland was scary? I've always wanted to scream at him, "That's not scary! That just looks like something from Invader Zim!" and then I'd say "but granted, Invader Zim was pretty scary at times," and as you'll see, I talk about that part more below.

And also, the order of which I put these moments is not exactly the order of which I think they are scariest.

The car chase scene from "101 Dalmations"

This scene is pretty well done, you have to admit. The colors, the animation, the actions of the characters, and the music all fit in pretty well, and it all leads up to this.

(Show's Cruella's Psychotic face)

JESUS! That face! I mean, the eyes, the teeth, the wrinkles, the eyes, the blind fury, the eyes, the idea that it looks like she's coming right at you... the eyes! It's just there for a second, but... it just really catches us off guard, and the rest of the scene leads up to it perfectly. And because the scene goes by so fast, it doesn't just scare us, it scares us on a subconscious level.

Now, if you pay attention to Cruella throughout the movie, you'll notice that as the plot progresses, she gets angrier, scarier, and more psychotic, and this chase scene is when her maddness reaches its peak, as you can see. It's probably from the pressure and stress she feels from her scheme and how tough it is to keep it going.

Cruella DeVille. If she doesn't scare you, no evil thing will.

The Horned King from "The Black Cauldron"

Now true, The Black Cauldron is often considered one of Disney's worst films, but the part of it that everyone remembers, besides the annoying talking sheep dog, is the villain. God Lord is this guy scary! He's tall, dark, he looks like a rotting corpse, he's got John Hurt's voice... he's just really creepy.

He seemed to be a mixture of every monster we knew; he was part skeleton, part zombie, part goblin, part devil, and part evil ruler.

I think one of the things that makes him so scary is how mysterious he looks at times. We never really get a clear shot of his face, so that when we DO get to see his face, he scares the crap out of us.

"Where is it? Show Me, Show Me.." (His scary face scares Taran.)

Yeah, that makes perfect sense! Just sneak up behind the kid who's about to tell you how to win, and make a scary face at him!

And he always moves and walks around and talks slowly, putting a lot of suspense and atmostphere into whatever scene he's in.

It's also pretty scary when he's about to use the Black Cauldron's power to raise his army of the dead, and that army is pretty damn scary too! I mean just look at them!

Now, pretty much every Disney villain has their own scary moments, some more than others, and you might notice that many of those villains show their scariest side at the climax or final battle of the film. The Horned King is one of the few that is scary throughout the entire movie! And as mentioned before, he actually does get scarier at the end when he gets so angry his eyes turn red!

"Now, Pig keeper! You shall die!"

You know you're fucked when this guy talks to you like that!

And good lord! Even his death is scary because it's so gruesome!

Charlie's nightmare from "All Dogs Go To Heaven"

Do you remember this scene from Don Bluth's classic? Well basically, because Charlie's escaped from Heaven, and hasn't made anything to atone for his bad life, he's can't go back to Heaven, so he gets this nightmare where he takes a ride, literally through Hell, as a taste of what is in store for him there.

And it's another one of those things that just sort of pops out. It starts off with Charlie sleeping peacefully, when suddenly the watch opens up, we hear that eerie "You can never come baclk," and suddenly BAM! Everything goes freaking insane!

You got Charlie flying through the dark clouds, getting sucked into this giant tornado, drifting on a boat on a river of freaking lava, facing all these dark, creepy-as-shit monsters that just pop out and attack him, and ending with him sinking into the lava before the pups all wake him up.

And the whole scene is only about two minutes long. Everything seems to rush by so fast, and it ends unresolved, it seems, and then it's never brought up again. Which would normally make it a... Big Lipped Aligator Moment!.. Ironically in the movie with the original moment.

Invader Zim

Just, Invader Zim. This whole cartoon was creepy. A lot of scenes in some episodes, or some episodes total, seemed to use elements from horror movies. Like what about that episode where Zim was stealing organs from all the kids in the school?

Or how about the episode where Zim got that new friend, I think his name was Keef, and he pulled out his eyes and replaced them with new ones?

Or what about that part where Sizz-Lorr was trying to catch Zim and bring him back to the kitchen?

Or those creepy-ass babies from that one episode?

And of course there's the Halloween special where Dib goes to that other realm and confronts all those creepy-ass versions of all the characters.

And let's not forget the teacher who lurks in the shadows, moves around like a ghost, and so clearly hates the kids. Or Dib's sister, Gaz, with her short temper and how she always wants to kill Dib. Don't forget the episode where she haunted that kid who stole her gameboy!

With its creepy music, bazaar monsters and aliens, and all the other crazy and creepy shit that goes down, there's no denying it: Invader Zim is one creepy-ass nicktoon, and also one awesome one!

Jaws

You'd be surprised how many people have seen this movie as children! The terrifying story of a giant killer shark hunting down the unlucky beach goers scared us just as much as many kids as adults.

And because kids are younger and more gullible, they are easier to traumatize. It's no wonder so many people were afraid to go back into the water after this movie!

And it's not just all in the killing or the bloodshed. We never actually the shark until the end of the film, making us all plead to see just how big and scary-looking this monster was. It made the shark all more terrifying when we actually got to see it.

And like Man from Bambi, just the threat and mere presence of the shark is frightening.

And the shark wasn't the only scary part of this movie. Remember that prank that those little kids pulled at the middle point? You could call that the "psyche shark attack."

Oh, and let's not forget Robert Shaw's famous monologue in the cabin. Maybe kids were kinda bored during that part, but it was pretty gripping for the adults.

"Sometimes that shark looks right at ya. Right into your eyes. And the thing about a shark is he's got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll's eyes. When he comes at ya, he doesn't even seem to be livin'... 'til he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white and then... ah then you hear that terrible high-pitched screamin'."

Stop it! I'm going to have nightmares!

Jaws. Dare to see it before you go swimming.

The nightmare clown from "The Brave Little Toaster"

The Brave Little Toaster had a lot of scary moments, but nothing in it compares to this one part near the middle when the toaster has a dream about having toast with his human master. It suddenly starts off scary when a cloud of smoke snatches the master away, and then a fire starts, and then all of a sudden...

(The Clown pops up)

GAAAH! WHAT THE F*CK IS THAT?

That height, those devil horns, that super sinister grin, how his only line is simply... "Run!". It's like he's the embodiment of pure evil, Satan if he put on make-up. This guy makes Pennywise from IT look cute!

Another scary thing about him is that he was probably one of the last things we would have expected to see in this movie. Why would a toaster even dream about a clown?

He chases the toaster through the house, perfectly syncing in with the music and the red, smoking background, reminiscent of Hell.

And then he laughs a creepy-ass laugh as the Toaster suddenly starts hanging over a bathtub before falling to his death and waking up.

And after the Toaster wakes up, he never brings it up again. There's no clown in the movie before or after this, making this another- Big Lipped Aligator Moment!

"RUN!"

I'm Running!

Ursula from "The Little Mermaid"

For the most part, The Little Mermaid is a very bright, colorful, cheery adventure, but the villain, Ursula the sea witch, scared the crap out of me! And I don't think I'm the only one there!

She had everything we thought of when we thought of witches; pale skin, creepy looks, magic, sadism, that dialect. Throw in some black sea monster tentacles onto that, and you're left with a pretty damn scary character.

I could barely look at the screen during her scenes I was so terrified of her. Her voice scared me; she scared me because she looked so big.

One thing that always scared me was how many times the camera got in really close to her scary faceface, and in a scary lighting and colors I might add! A lot of times in this movie, I thought she was going to eat me!

Her lair was scary, dark on the inside, looking like a giant fish skeleton on the outside, and with those creepy merfolk turned into weeds.

Good Lord! Even her human form is scary! You can totally tell she's plotting something, just look at that grin! And watch her in the bathroom!

And if the happy Urusula scared you, she terrified you when she got angry! After all the animals beat her up at the wedding scene, I was afraid of what she was going to do next.

When you kill her pet eels, and she gives you this look, you know shit just got real!

I think the scariest parts for her, at least in my opinion, were during her villain song, when she's whipping up that potion, and all the colors flash around her, making her look scarier as they flash, and as she keeps being loud, and gets faster, pressuring Ariel to make her choice. Actually, she's scary every time she uses her magic.

And then of course, like many Disney villains, she's especially at the final battle, when she transforms into a giant, seventy-foot high monster, with that deep, thunderous voice, using the triton, using all these dark colors during a storm, trying to kill Ariel.

And like The Horned King, even her death keeps you hiding under the covers, when she flashes under the lightning and you can see her skeleton.

Ursula. You do NOT want her to be part of your world.
