I was always right all along. Realizing that even family films like these even have pretty disturbing scenes
Love It WatchMojo.
not as a kid, but a year ago, i dreamt a scene extremely similar to Verruca vs. a scurry (aka a group of squirrels).
No, it was fun!
@@katherineknapp4370same couldn’t even tell the difference didn’t give me nightmares at all overall to me it was funny
The Willy Wonka tunnel scene didn’t scare me when I first saw it, but rather, I just found it very strange
Same but it was such a fantastic scene in a way.
I found it scary, but only the bug part
@@VoteBidentoSaveDemocracy it seems like a lot of people can't even handle bugs. There is a term for it.
I didn’t find it scary as a kid. But as a grew older it started to become terrifying. Probably because I finally understood what was going on as an adult.
You and me both.
I mean, I was a weird kid back then. 😅
Fun fact:
Gene Wilder was reluctant to film the yelling scene because he has grown close to Peter Ostrum and didn’t want to scare him (since Ostrum was unaware of how Wonka was gonna react)
That’s really interesting, and I’m glad Gene Wilder was hesitant to do the yelling scene to not frighten that little boy. That just shows what a nice guy he was
Another fun fact: the "candy" cup and plate he takes a bite out of at the end of _Pure Imagination_ was wax. One of the few things not edible on set 😊
Such a nice man he was
@@problematicgoose Hmm, wonder how he died...
where my dislike of raised voices came from
When you think about it, the Veruca squirrel scene has an extra layer of horrifying considering the whole “knocking on her head to check if she’s a bad nut” thing. We know that Veruca is a spoiled brat, and therefore a “bad nut”, but imagine if the squirrels determined she was a “good nut”. They would’ve cracked open the head of a child to get at the “nut” inside. Super creepy.
Yeah, that's such a disturbing thought.
Agreed.
I personally didn’t think Violet’s transformation was creepy. I actually thought it was pretty funny 😂
she kinda deserved it i would be a lot more disturbed is she was a nicer person
It was a little scary but not where I would think of it all of the time.
You know, in the stageplay, she goes out either in more amusing or maybe truly disturbing way. After musical number is finished, Violet bursts, covering her mother in blueberry jam. But Willy Wonka simply says, that her remains will be glued together, so she is OK for sure.
I think it's the music in the charlie movie is what made it creepy
Ah yes…. The *very scene* that started the blueberry kink (don’t ask me abt it cos y’all don’t wanna know what it’s supposed to be…)
People theorized that the 1971 Wonka was a killer with how little he seemed to care, but truthfully, the 2005 Wonka had more “killer/psycho” vibes than 1971 Wonka
Well, that's what happens when you're being directed by Tim Burton.
That man is always living in his own world along with all of his bizarre creations.
Very true.
Although I think Wonka was playing with them a little when he said they were about to die. Especially Veruca's fate.
That tunnel scene never bothered me as a little kid, just bored me a little. Never really understood why people were scared of it
The imagery isn't something you expect in a kids movie... But I guess it defies explanation
I remember seeing Charlie & the Chocolate Factory in the theaters and the Augustus up the pipe & Violet inflation scenes really scared me
Join the party. You're not the only one. For augustus I was afraid he might drown. And for violet, it made me traumatized. Never to eat gum for rest of my childhood. Alongside avoiding wearing purple.
Scenes like the boat tunnel and the transformation of Violet are etched in my memory for their unnerving atmosphere. It's intriguing to see how both the original and the Tim Burton remake approach these eerie moments.
It scaried me shitless when i was a kid. I was afraid of gum for almost half of my childhood and never wore purple. Now of day the clip give me the creeps but I do give the creator credit for good CGI.
Gene Wilder was a legend as Willy Wonka and damn he can be terrifying in those memorable scenes.
I don't think any of us were surprised that *"The Boat Tunnel Scene"* would be number 1. You can at least argue that for all the other scenes on this list are necessary for Woka's work. And by that, I meant how he exactly makes his candy as well as figuring out Charlie was the noblest kid with the purest heart.
Tell me, what the hell does that nightmare fulled boat ride have anything to do with making chocolate?!
😂😂
probably to give wonka more personality lol.
I'm actually grateful for Violet's aftermath in the 2005 movie. Yes, it was unnerving at first to see her more floppy and stretchy with permanent blue skin, but she seems perfectly fine with it.
Sadly, I can't say the same about Mike being tall and flat.
Agreed I’d be fine with being blue if it makes me for flexible
True also I think the mom should have gotten a kick in the pants because she was very very bad at parenting. As for mike I still don't even know how he's alive.
The Tom and Jerry version of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory had it's fair share of creepy moments such as "Slugworth's" rendition of "I Want it Now" montage (not to mention his creepy appearance), Tuffy's rendition of "There's No Knowing Where We're Going" and it's montage, and Veruca, Mr. Salt, Tom, Jerry, and Tuffy's near brush with death in the furnace.
We don’t talk about that one.
Willy Wonka is not yelling at Charlie. He is yelling at Grandpa Joe. He never once looked at Charlie nor used his name. He looked right at Grandpa and said "you broke the rules"instead of "you both", and makes it clear that he's not angry at Charlie, but rather at Grandpa for being responsible for it all.
He's basically scolding the grandfather for being a terrible grandfather because he actually cares about Charlie.
I know Violet’s blueberry expansion scene activated the almonds of certain people, but in my perspective I had no idea what the hell was going on while I had my first experience watching both version of the movies.
Meanwhile I definitely did know because my elementary school put on the play first before we watched the movie xD
DA users favorite scene
I was terrified of the singing dolls in Tim Burton's version until now I find interesting as they used actual animatronics for that part in the film and most of them weren't fire resistant so they were saved whilst others were made to be burnt for that scene.
None of these ever scared me as a kid. Not even the tunnel scene. The only scene in the whole 1971 version that scared me was the man with the cart full of knives that shows up out of nowhere, tells Charlie a creepy rhyme then leaves and is just never mentioned again. That scared the hell out of me! I'm kinda surprised it wasn't on the list.🤔
Yes, why wasn’t the tinker included here? I’m outraged!
Let’s face it, there’s like, eleventy bajillion unanswered questions regarding the tinker!
*I never cared as a kid watching Charlie and the chocolate factory. Willy wonka and the chocolate factory had a creepy and strange vibe. While Charlie and the chocolate factory was just weird and looked gave us more depth.*
Tunnel scene scarred me as a kid! Still does today!
In “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” by Roald Dahl’s interpretation, the fates of the mischievous children can be considered gruesome. Augustus Gloop gets stuck in a chocolate tube, Violet Beauregarde turns into a blueberry, Veruca Salt is thrown down the garbage gutter, and Mike Teavee is shrunk to a small size. However, it’s important to note that the tone of the book is premature and not intended to be overly infamous or horrifying.
¡Es como si Willy Wonka hiciera de su experiencia una pesadilla!
Some people think that maybe if it was nightmare fuel they could turn it into some sort of horror movie. It probably reminds you of the brothers Grim tales where they never really straight too far away but still delved into the dark and mysterious.
“Everything in this room is eatable, even I’m eatable but that’s called cannibalism my dear children and it is frowned upon in most societies.” Willy Wonka
The scenes with them leaving the factory makes their fates less dark. You know that the oompa loompas were able to help the kids try to overcome whatever they did to themselves. They were able to prevent Augustus from being boiled, get the juice out of violet, prevent the Salts from being incinerated, and stretched Mike so he wouldn't be pocket sized.
I'm sorry, but how is Will's meltdown creepy?
And the squirrel scene is a classic and creepy at the same time.
The burning dolls always made me sad and creeped out.
And most creepiest part of both movies is the little people singing every time a kid "dies".
Fun fact at the tunnel scene: the young actors never knew that willy wonka started to sing, so when he did. the young actors were actually terrified irl and thought he was going insane. so their pure look in terror were real!
2:42 some people argue that the original omitting the scene where the kids leave the factory can be more disturbing, whereas here we are given the reassurance they're still alive
The tunnel scene has a pretty grotesque moment. In the original film the visuals had a split second of a chicken getting its head cut off
11:57? Or is it just a chicken. Kinda hard to tell
And just to make it more gruesome, that's a real chicken we see.
cant get enough of this cinematic perfection
Tim Burton is a master of bizarre, macabre, and creepy! I love it all!
Amazing video Rebecca from watch mojo of the nightmare fuel scene in the Willy Wonka movies franchises,fantastic job.
“You terrible man,” says Mrs Gloop to Wonka. I think I agree with her.
VIOLET'S TRANSFORMATION IS ICONIC!
Roald Dahl probably would’ve loved Charlie and the Chocolate Factory since it was more faithful to the book
Except for the 1989 animated adaptation of The BFG, Roald never liked any film adaptations of his works.
That’s not true, he liked how Danny The Champion Of the World turned out.
I don’t remember any of these scenes scaring me as a kid. Some of them, like the fates of the bratty kids, can be explained because I expected them from reading the book. I started reading chapter books when I was five, and this was an early one. Still, that can't explain why I was fine with the welcome song with the burning dolls, the fizzy lifting drinks scene and the tunnel scene (which was in the book but did not have horrific imagery and would not have been as scary anyway because Wilder made that scene what it is. I think the one that disturbed me the most was the outburst at the end of WW because it was so unexpected.
To be honest,
The Tunnel Scene has never scared me as a kid,
But rather confused me and it made me ask myself:
"What the heck is going on in this scene?"
"Can somebody already tell me what it's going on in this scene of the movie?"
"Cause i have no idea what is going on in this scene right now and i'm so confused."
That's 80% how I felt when I first saw that scene from the movie!
@@kermitTHEdinosaur93me too. To be perfectly honest the only scene from the 1971 that really scared me and creeped me out was when Charlie encountered the mysterious tinker at the beginning because nobody saw that scene coming
Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory scarred me from 9-11 years old. The blueberry scene gave me nightmares for months. I don't really remember much of the tunnel scene when I was 9 years old but now It's the scariest scene in the whole movie.
The scene where the first kid gets sucked into the chocolate tube awoke my claustrophobia 😰
After violet’s transformation, she must be thinking to herself, “I’m never chewing gum again!”
Or I'll be like one of its bubbles!
She probably would think that, once she returned to her normal size. Out of of all the bratty kids, Violet probably had the most potential to change for the better.
Honorable mention from the 2023 Wonka film: Willy Wonka and Noodle nearly drowned in a room full of overflowing chocolate, until the Oompa Loompa saved them. I think of it as a combination of Augustus drowning in the chocolate river and Charlie (along with Grandpa Joe) nearly getting killed in the fizzy lifting drink room.
Genuinely these have to be the darkest visuals for any film aimed at children
2:43 Veruca and her dad got off easy. Sure, they’re filthy, but they can just take a shower.
Nice video
THE TUNNEL SCENE IS SO SCARY!
What about the tinker scene from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory that scene always sent a shiver down my spine
8:55 okay that marked me as a kid
Charlie & Grandpa nearly getting chopped to bits by that propeller in the ceiling.
I don’t like Family Guy, but Violet’s transformation did gave me a ton of nightmares!! Both versions!! While the first one was big & fat, the other one from 2005 was thrice the size of the boulder from Indiana Jones!!
The part with Agustus and the pipe scared me as a kid.
Everyone was either scared or weirded out by the tunnel. Personally I found it hilarious
This video is an absolute nightmare to watch!
The 2005 Augustus Gloop for some reason scared the HELL out of me
The movies definitely have their moments, but the musical stage adaptation I think is the most dark. Violet inflates to the point where she becomes a disco ball (which honestly I think for the context of a musical is kinda fun in theory) before literally exploding. In versions that cut out the disco number she gets popped by a blow dart from an oompa-loompa. Veruca is ripped apart limb by limb by the squirrels. And a lot of it ends up getting played for laughs
You're referring to the london version right.
I thought the dummies in the 2005 version were made of chocolate. You can see it dripping from some of them. It would also explain why they're melting at relatively low temperatures.
That tunnel boat scene in Willy Wonka still scares me to this day lol.
Violets transformation gave me nightmares 😂
I love Tim Burtons version but man it really scared me at first
You me both it scarred me for life.
The boat ride scene sure is very creepy and disturbing indeed.
Every scene in the Tim Burton- Johnny Depp is creepy to me. When I keep hearing Golden Ticket, my mind automatically wanders to ‘The Office’ episode of the same name
I loved the tunnel scene, and I still do, it’s actually my favorite song in the movie (besides Pure Imagination)
Personally the Augustus demise in Burton version is more nightmare fuel as he shouts for help but the guests and wonka are on the other side of the river until he goes up the pipe in pain screaming that scene has everything on the original
You're not wrong there.I wanted to scream at the TV when I saw it.
There's nothing creepy or even strange about the Wonka Wash. It's hilarious to be covered in bubbles. The scary part is that the foam was made from fire extinguisher foam and burned everyone's skin.
The river really was all dirty water, not chocolate.
These films made for the best paper I've ever written in college.
I'm surprised that his factory wasn't shut down sooner, giving all those health and safety violations. Not the safest factory to win a tour of.
Roald Dahl’s books always had creepy dark moments.
hard to believe that Charlie Bucket(from the Johnny Depp version) is the Good Doctor
The tunnel scene was scary
Nice list, but what about these other scenes such as when Charlie was checking out the factory at night and the Tinker came out of nowhere and the scene where Mr Wonka’s father just moved away in the 2005 film? Because these scenes are quite creepy.
Watching Faruka Salt fall down that hole to the incinerator was both Scary & Funny.
I remember I was in elementary school when I first saw ‘Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory’. The one scene that got to me was when Violent turns into a blueberry. Since I was 9(?) at the time; it disturbed me to the point where I needed to leave the room because I felt nauseous. I believe it was because it was so abnormal! Thankfully, that stopped once I got older.
I never found the melting puppets creepy. I was obsessed with that scene as a kid.
Number 7 awoke something in me
I remember watching the 2005 movie and that doll scene terrified me.
I remember as a kid, i used to be scared of this movie and it started with Tim Burton
It’s nice to see people don’t watch your videos anymore. Well done world!
#1 Johnny Depps whole performance
Not veruca cause her parents to reply that they spoiled her too much, so they decided to give her a bath that was final
Love this movies but man they are freaky
This just shows that this is a really dark story any way you portray it
Believe it or not I was never afraid of the tunnel scene even as a child.
I will never have a nightmare like this.
The Willy Wonka tunnel scene still scares me until this day
The original Violet transformation scene scared me as a kid.
8:22 well he goes the way he likes
It is awesome to watch Willy Wonka on television
The boat scene while creepy was also funny
For me it’s got to be the boat ride it terrified me a little when I first watched it in the 90's.
The kis leave the factory scared me as a kid
What I find most weird about the scary tunnel scene is the fact that it's never brought up again after it's over.
fun fact : the boat scene was not scripted, at least not the kids and parents and kids reactions. The producers wanted their live terror :D
You would think that at least Peter Ostrum would know, seeing how he was given the actual book to use as a script.
As a child i was extremly frighted by the scene of the 2005 Version when Augustus fall in the river and get sucked in the pipe, but actually both movies have their dark scenes
I love both movies, so I guess I am tough. ( although the Omplass did scare me at first but I was ok when they appeared again. It was one's from the first movie)
“Wonka’s meltdown.” I absolutely loathe scenes like that one. It’s also one of the reasons I prefer the Tim Burton film better. I never found any of the scenes mentioned creepy and Johnny Depp never screamed his head off like poor Gene Wilder had to.
The burning dummies scene I thought was funny. I laughed so hard the first time I saw it 😅
The tunnel scene wasn't that creepy. But it's intriguing and iconic
When the kids leave the factory I see it as a "You deserve it!"
That’s the idea!
Both the Fan and Tunnel scenes really gave me the creeps as a kid, but as I got older I overcame them.
I mean, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was rated PG for “Quirky Situations”.😳🍫
I really can't believe that these scenes actually happened
5:04 i don't know if #5 count's as a tearjerker in the movie. 5:34 after grandpa Joe's response. 6:16
I like the end of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory I think it really funny.
Honestly, we shouldn’t expect this to be the number one creepiest moment on your list.
Completely restored to their normal TERRIBLE old selves
But hopefully a little wiser for the wear.
One question how is wonkamobile creepy 2:46 when I watch that scene it didn't scary me I find it hilarious😂😂😂😂
True but it goes to the behind the scene aspect of the movie. In the behind the scenes the actors would end up getting sick from the foam being spread by the wonkamobile.
