We've collected 10 of the scariest movies that aren't technically in the horror genre. Enjoy reliving the trauma!
10. The Princess Bride
Not a scary movie by any means, but what the f*** were those shrieking eels about?
Like for real. F*** that.
9. The Witches
Anything with snakes is a no-no. So this woman can go straight to hell.
Let's not forget Erica being kidnapped and thrown into a painting. Absolute nightmare fuel.
8. The Neverending Story
People will argue that this is an uplifting story, and that there are just sad parts along the way. But as a kid this scene scared the piss out of me. I think I'm still traumatized.
7. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Talk about perfect casting. I would cover my eyes anytime Shredder would come on the screen in the live action TMNT movies.
The costume, the voice, just terrifying.
6. Matilda
Two words: The Chokey. Bro what in the actual f***. The chokey is so beyond messed up that it would never exist in schools today. For those who don't remember, it's a small closet where Miss Trunchbull would throw the bad kids.
Nails, shards of glass, and solitary confinement were the highlights of the chokey.
5. Toy Story
Aside from the fact that toys coming to life is a genuinely terrifying idea, I have to admit that Sid still scares me to this day.
I honestly believe that if Sid were a real person he would've brought a shotgun into school. No chill.
4. Who Framed Roger Rabbit
As sexy as Jessica Rabbit was, it still never made up for the trauma of watching Christopher Lloyd's eyes bulge out of his head.
Pure terror.
3. Kindergarten Cop
This is stranger danger 101. Cullen Crisp was an estranged, abusive father trying to find his ex. The dude brings a gun into a school and it was way too real!
The only funny part of this movie is that kid who says "vagina." These two scared the crap out of me.
2. Jumanji
The spider scene...
The scene where Alan gets sucked into the game.
Basically the entire movie.
1. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Easily the scariest non-horror movie. Aside from the fact that they almost drown when the tide rises out of nowhere...
The child-catcher will haunt my dreams forever.
Pure unadulterated nightmare fuel.
