It turns out it's difficult to watch a full film from the fetal position.

"It was not marketed as a horror movie but...you know what I'm talking about."

Politropos

"It's technically a kids movie, but it's freaky as hell."

SpiritualSock9

"It's about a narcissistic actress who adopts a child, shows love initially, then turns into a horrible, abusive monster when the child starts thinking for herself. If you've been in an abusive relationship, this movie hits harder than any horror flick."

hashedram

"If it wasn't a comedy, it would be one of the scariest stalker movies I've ever seen."

wilusa

"This movie is scary as hell! If you really want your kids to understand why drugs are bad, just show them this movie (well, dont show this movie to kids...maybe in their teen years)."

marmogawd

"It isn't scary in the traditional sense, but it's extremely unsettling."

"I watched that pretty young and the whole thing was fairly traumatizing."

Big_Simba

"7-year-old me would say this one...Hell, adult me will still stand by it."

JimothyJollyphant

"Ever see JK Simmons and think, 'Boy, he's pretty intense. He might be really scary if he weren't so funny!' Yeah...no one laughs during this movie."

Stovepipe032

"This movie scared the bejesus out of me. The idea of being untethered in space and just floating away with no way to do anything? Screw that!"

Armatu

"It's super scary to die in the middle of the ocean...and the fact that it's based on real events that happened does not help."

satine1011

"And it's only gotten more frightening in light of recent events."

Cream_Gingerly

"It's on Netflix right now. Holy crap, this movie is disturbing. Honestly, after it was over I thought, I didnt like that. But it stuck with me, and I thought about it for days afterward. Thats when you know it was a good movie. That kid holy shit Barry Keoghan...his acting was incredible."

librarianjenn

"The baby scene, but also Robert Carlyle's violently deranged character."

greenvortex

"It gave me nightmares when I first saw it as a teen. Hoggle makes me shudder. Jim Henson always goes for for the creep factor. I saw one of the puppets in real life at a museum once and I'll never be the same."

flammable1313

"It's not scary-scary like an actual horror movie, but it just feels so accurate to the real world. I just felt like something like that actually could happen (maybe not the ending, but the rest of it, for sure)."

itsyourwoman

"That movie had me terrified that Id become some abused servant if my parents ever went missing."

BeepBeepPinkJeep

"That movie should've been marketed as horror movie."

Lachimanus

"That blasted Child Catcher. I always thought in the back of my mind that if I misbehaved as a kid my parents would toss me outside for the Child Catcher to grab and he'd throw me in his cart."

cornmill7

"I was expecting a very low, LOW-brow comedy, not a drama movie about the consequences of our actions, how time is not only finite, but the time we have with our loved ones is limited. It made me scared that one day I might look back and see that I wasted my life."

t0kidoki

"It's absolute nightmare fuel."
