Scary Moments in Movie History

October 29, 2003

dumboelephant.gifBelieve it or not ‘The Pink Ele­phant’ hal­lu­ci­na­tion sequence in Disney’s Dumbo movie has been rated 90th in Retrocrush’s 100 Scari­est Movie Moments.

Retro­crush explains that the Pink Ele­phant hal­lu­ci­na­tion is “an unlikely scary movie can­di­date, many folks still can’t shake the trip out fear from the famous alco­hol induced “Pink Ele­phants on Parade” tripout sequence from Dumbo. Not to be con­fused with the “Honey Over­dose Hef­falumps and Woo­zles” flash­back from Win­nie The Pooh, decades later.”

Get your spook on.

I’d have to say that the split pea soup scene in the Exor­cist was the scari­est movie moment. That alone kept me up for nights.

Which brings me to a thought, does any­one remem­ber a TV show that aired in the 80s about were­wolves? I remem­ber that it was on TV around the same time Alf was.

I’m glad the Willy Wonka scene was included! That STILL creeps me out…

John,

I had actu­ally for­got about that scene from Willy Wonka until I down­loaded the sound­bite from the web site.

Very creepy.

How­ever, it also makes me antic­i­pate the Tim Bur­ton ver­sion of Willy Wonka even more.
