I mentioned it not too long ago but the Spahn Ranch scene in Once Upon A Time In Hollywood is really suspenseful and creepy.


TrueLegateDamar

You really got the sense Brad Pitt was about to get stabbed to death by one of the Manson Family any second.


The_Lone_Apple

I wonder if Tarantino was paying homage to the movie Psycho because it had the same sort of Hitchcockian feel.


Smirnoffico

opened the thread to write about this one. Legit horror scene in non-horror movie


corpulentFornicator

The gas station confrontation in No Country for Old Men. Anton Chigurh is creepy as hell and doesn't need jump scares to give you the willies.


ThingsAreAfoot

call it


crimson_dovah

What?


ThingsAreAfoot

you need to call it. i can’t call it for you.


crimson_dovah

Well we need to know what we’re calling for


ThingsAreAfoot

#EVERYTHING


crimson_dovah

How’s that?


ThingsAreAfoot

Everything. You stand to win everything. Call it.


crimson_dovah

Alright, heads then.


ThingsAreAfoot

hahaha you fool *walks away*


crimson_dovah

I need to rewatch that movie. Its brilliant.

Bilbo Baggins hissing scene in Fellowship of the Ring Didn’t think I’d pee my pants in a lord of the rings movie…


Missile_Lawnchair

I'm sorry my boy


Snorezore

I always need to look away right before it happens.


plaguedbullets

Also when the ring is about to be picked up off Bilbo's floor and Sauron is all like, Peekaboo!


UnhealthyGamer

All the armies and grace meant nothing in that moment when Bilbo was left fighting the power of the ring alone. Luckily he had enough of himself to resist killing Frodo and running away forever.


meesahdayoh

ET in the shed. Gave me nightmares.


crimson_dovah

I feel you with this one.


thefancywizard

The diner sequence in Mulholland Drive.


crimson_dovah

Agreed. What the hell was that thing by the dumpster


True-Target-1577

Bonnie Aarons...


meatballs2022

Close Encounters Of The 3rd Kind: When Barry the kid gets abducted. Also when the Grays come out of the mother ship use to always creep me out when i was a kid. That boat tunnel scene in Charlie And The Chocolate Factory. Also Watership Down has some horrifying scenes for a kids film.


Merickson-

The poster for Watership Down alone creeps the hell out of me.


DSQ

The scene in Looper where the guys nose disappears and as he runs back his arms and legs disappear as well. 


crimson_dovah

Nasty scene. Made my toes curl


DSQ

Yup, I have to skip it. Once was enough. 


AdDiligent7657

The Pale Man in Pan’s Labyrinth


crimson_dovah

Oh DEFINITELY that dude gives me the willies


JohnnyJayce

Highway scene in Nocturnal Animals is one of the scariest things I've seen. Because it could happen to anyone.


crimson_dovah

Yeah… that’s gotta be one of the scariest opening scenes in a non horror movie. Or any movie.


okankagungor

It's one of those movies that I love but can't watch more than once. Also if I remember correctly there was a baby cam scene with a jumpscare too.


Merickson-

Sid's toys in the first Toy Story.


crimson_dovah

Saying that kids toys scary and forgetting about that kind is like calling frankensteins monster scary and forgetting about Frankenstein.


Loose-Slice5386

Large Marge.


crimson_dovah

NAH THAT SHIT IS FUNNY DUDE. She’s still flying when he leaves the house


Baardseth815

Lol, they were referring to Pee Wee's Big Adventure, not Prisoner of Azkaban. 🤣


crimson_dovah

OH! What’s the context?


ReflectionEterna

Stop everything you're doing and go watch Pee-Wee's Big Adventure.


crimson_dovah

What’s it about?


ReflectionEterna

Some guy gets his bike stolen and goes on an odyssey to get it back.


crimson_dovah

What the fuck did you just make me watch


crimson_dovah

Ooh! I’ll try to find it


Tartan_Samurai

Watched 1917 last night and that felt like a horror movie in places. The mix of that tracking shot, lighting, music, bleak landscape was really effective at making you feel the bleak horror of WWI.


crimson_dovah

Oh definitely. Probably a lot of war movies feel like that at times. Hacksaw Ridge has that night sequence as well and I know a lot of people mention Come and See as a terrifying non horror movie.


Bento_Fox

The donkey scene in Pinocchio really freaked me out as a kid.


[deleted]

Oh absolutely. Still unnerving to this day.


Reggie_Popadopoulous

Doc Ock surgery scene in Spiderman 2. Sam Raimi letting his Evil Dead background shine through


[deleted]

I remember first seeing that in theaters. I was jaw dropped and wide-eyed for a good few minutes.


earhere

Threads (1983) the whole movie


GentlemanBAMF

The bear in Annihilation. Just... Yeah. Eek.


crimson_dovah

Isn’t annihilation considered cosmic horror like Mandy or Colour Out Of Space


Weirdguy149

The main villain of Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle might as well have come from a horror movie. All of his scenes are ridiculously uncomfortable with all the gross shit he does.


maalbi

All Of the Judas scenes in passion of the christ


crimson_dovah

Passion of the Christ is one movie I don’t think I’ll watch again. It was a one time experience


maalbi

Those demonic children still haunt my dreams


MikeSizemore

“Is it safe?” in Marathon Man (1976).


Reasonable-HB678

The drawing was *not* a self portrait.


crimson_dovah

YEP and it foreshadows parts of the story and the boys character. The springs in the neck and the no mouth mwah that he has a lot of kinetic energy and this ability to explode (and tell the truth because he knows) but had no way of telling people


ReflectionEterna

What movie is this?


crimson_dovah

Parasite.


ReflectionEterna

Dude, I forgot all about the painting.


crimson_dovah

Yeah. That movie is a masterpiece there’s so many foreshadowing and symbolic elements


kingje48

The boat in the tunnel from Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971)


poliscijunki

The climax of Whiplash. Felt like I was holding my breath the entire time.


crimson_dovah

Not quite my tempo.


aromatic_cherrimoya

The cat in the hat. Was my horror as a kid.


crimson_dovah

And to add to your comment, cats. Maybe cats and humans should just stay friends


Reasonable-HB678

They should have gone with what Steven Spielberg had planned, make it animated.


Shakeamutt

One Hour Photo. The wall. And the flip book of photos.


Techno_Core

Kiddo's burial in Kill Bill 2. I'm an old grown man, and that shit fucked me up. Despite it being completely dark, had to close my eyes.


darkreapertv

The door scene in “Signs” and imo the ending aswell are some scary scenes.


ninjoe2509

Inglorious Basterds opening scene


crimson_dovah

Oh man… that farmer just crumbled. He was terrified and just… gave up like that. Poor dude.


El_Plantigrado

If you have time, you should give a try to the film "As Bestas" with the same actor as the lead. It's a thriller based on a real story, you know all along what's going to happen but still you get caught in it and the vibe of the movie is pretty unconfortable.


SpillinThaTea

There’s a highly underrated movie from 2005 with Paul Walker called Running Scared. It’s a hyper kinetic crime thriller about a low level mob guy trying to track down a gun used in a high profile hit. It’s got one of the scariest scenes I’ve ever seen in a movie, truly sickening.


Few_Pride_5836

Which scene?


[deleted]

I think I know which one…..and it has nothing to do with Paul Walker or the mob. Hard to disagree with Vera Farmiga’s decision in that moment.


GibsonMaestro

Schindler's List is considered a horror movie, but the film is littered with terrifying scenes.


crimson_dovah

Same with the pianist! I couldn’t watch that movie after they push the dude in the wheelchair out the window.


Stijakovic

That one bedroom scene in White Noise really trips my alarms


JuicePrudent7727

This might sound ridiculous, but the scene from kindergarten cop when the bad boy slides across the window when Arnold is dreaming always creeped me out…


WoburnWarrior

I said this the other day but the unmarked grave scene from Behind Enemy Lines made me feel very uneasy on par with unsettling horror movie scenes


[deleted]

I always found the clown nightmare from The Brave Little Toaster creepy as hell when I was a kid. Hell, it’s still creepy today.


228s

That one scene in the perks of being a wallflower. IYKYK.


devioustrevor

Not scary per se, but definitely tense, was the ride to the prom in Spiderman: Homecoming as Adrian Toomes began realizing Peter Parker was Spiderman and Peter was realizing that Toomes knew.
