What character scared you as a child?
Reply to Topic
I've never seen the movies but to this very day I cringe every time I see that demented Mother-f*cking doll Chucky.
But his blue eyes freaked me out every time I saw it on the Channel 7 4:30 movie.

For me it was also the Flying Monkeys in the Wizard of Oz.
On televion it was the cybermen from the BBC series Doctor Who, strangely the Daleks never gave me nightmares, but they did freak me when they started the psychotic Exterminate rant.
LOL H.R.Puffinstuff wow that brings back memories, for me those smoking mushrooms were indeed very sinister. It wasn't untill much later that I became aware of the undertone of druggy messages.

My parents took me to see House on Haunted Hill (1958)
I was 10 years old at the time and this scene right here:
scared me so badly that I had to run out to the theater lobby and hide for about 5 minutes before I went back inside.
P.S. For some reason the larger images keep disappearing. The smaller image should remain fixed. Thanks FernTree.

On the Dr. WHo? series, I can go along with the Dalek ranting but I think it was particularly frightening when it was Davros speaking. The way he looked and the way his voice kept rising as he spoke, getting more high pitched as time went on.
Speaking of high pitched voices, what did you think about Christopher Lloyd's character at the end of Who Framed Roger Rabbit? The part where he reveals that he was the one who dropped a piano on Bob Hoskin's brother, his voice going high pitched - that was some freaky stuff!
When I was around 16 I saw a commercial for a movie. The part I remembered was where there was some sort of machine built into a wall, dark and futuristic (a la Bladerunner) with a man's head coming out of the machine/wall (a la Rutger Hauer in Bladerunner). The man appeared to be coming out of the machine. I had a nightmare that night in which that man was coming out of the machine and was chasing me. When I awoke I had a voice in my head which was criticising me and speaking sarcastically to me. This, as you can imagine, freaked me out totally. My remedy was to go downstairs and watch videos for as long as it took to get my mind thinking about something else.
Unfortunately, in my adult years, I have been unable to pinpoint which movie it was that I saw the commercial for, any guesses?

The ugly Gremlins scared the **** out of me. I kept on having recurring nightmares because of them until my early teens. I couldn't watch the films all the way through. Dodgy stuff there. Freddy Kruger and Chucky played on my mind aswell.
When I was a kid, my dad told me that the flying monkeys scared him when he was little. I laughed and told him he was crazy.
I was scared of so much stuff when I was little that I forget most of them now. It (even though I never actually saw him until I looked at this thread), Batman Villians (most but never Arnold), whatever the bad guy in Disney's The Black Cauldron was scared me to death, but here's a funny one:
Cruela De Vil (Glen Close)

Not him, but the whole film. Horrid, evil film. In fact, I didn't even finish it.
That said, it was this character that made me turn it off.

Anything which had bugs in it.
We lived in an apartment that was crawling with waterbugs. Even as an adult, I cannot watch Joe's Apartment.
It just skeeves me out.
