scary cartoons

this is sort of a part two to an older thread I make a few years ago but I know there is sort of a rule against necroposting so I thought I'd start a new thread. or if it's ok maybe the mods can just merge this to my older thread if they feel it's relevant: http://forums.thetechnodrome.com/showthread.php?t=22522

You know people may laugh at me but I was recently reminded of how much DONALD DUCK used to scare the living crap out of me. Or rather how classic donald duck used to scare me. he's way tamer now but in the orginal cartoons Donald was one demented twisted scarey mofo. He had this way of becoming psychotic when he was angry that freaked me out especially he would semi-transform into a devil.

here is an example....I admit it's a poor example but it was the only one I could find on youtube. (I used to own this movie. It was awsome)




hey you know whats will never make it into a kids cartoon now adays? the Devil. This is more of a subtle mind f*ck than out right scarey. But still I gotta give props to the creators for having the balls to go there in a kids show:



Watership Down was somthing my older sister had to read for school and I remember her reading some of it to me. I couldn't read at the time so my parents rented to animated movie. What a great film I loved it and I liked that it didn't sugar-coat everything. What stayed with me was the violence and how brutal the evil rabbit was and the dog scene killing the other rabbits:

Oh, yeah, I love how classic Donald was so unpredictable. He was just a short fuse waiting to blow up in demented, insanity!

Ever see the TV special, "Down and Out with Donald Duck?" That was trippy kiddie-goodness!


See @3:07 for an epic music video!

The part where the dog blows the guys head off with a shotgun in Plague Dogs is PRETTY SCARRING!

I was wondering if I was the only person in existence who had seen that. The animation from that Watership Down segment reminded me of Plague Dogs. I was surprised when they put that part in the animated movies. I always assumed the movie was more for "adults" as the book was a bit of a difficult read (tho I did read it in Jr High)

Have you ever read the book, Peanut?


Cartoons did have some scary stuff. I can't think of anything off the top of my head but the Mark Twain devil bit did creep me out...even as an adult.

The Boogey Man from The Real Ghostbusters is HORRIFYING. If anything like that popped out of my closet, I'd poop myself, die, and scream. Not necessarily in that order.

My sister and I rented a tape when we were kids call Disney Scary Tales and it was pretty awesome, but this one short just freaked us both out.

I never liked Snow White. When I was little it was the witch. As an adult it's the fact that she is such a...a.... female stereotype. Found a house...better cook and clean for them. Apple from a scary old lady? Ok I'll eat it cause i'm naieve and trusting and not smart enough to know better. Then I have to have the prince save me even though I'm dead.



Actually......a lot of those old old Disney movies bother me

I know it's not exactly a cartoon, but Oogie Boogie always creeped me out as a kid.

I saw the first one a while ago and made a whole computer game of it (using a program called game maker and got the sprites from frames in the movie) although I didn't quite finish it. (In the game you walk around as Donald duck killing cows, and I'm going to add Mickey defending them at some point)

They're all pretty scary though.

I just kinda looked past it.

yes but, this was made back in the 30's so I'm not surprised that Snow White was portrayed like that. Besides I thought the film had alot more charming qualites to it that made great so it doesn't bother me. Also I appreciate Snow White genuiane innocence and sweetness. But it's ok if you don't like the old movies some get on my nerves too.

Anyway has anybody here seen or read The Plague Dogs? I love dogs so much and this one broke my heart and disturbed me.

I have the short animated movie on DVD. I also had the book at one point, but somehow lost it during one of my moves.

It was a good book but quite sad yes. I have to admit that I skipped a few parts of the book because the author sometimes embellished to much for my taste.

I'm figuring the cartoon was aimed more at adults as the book was pretty adult as well.
