Courage the Cowardly dog. Not scary to me anymore, but as a child... A nightmare on TV.

I don't know, I think it depends on how you define 'scary' and toward what age group. Do 'Disturbing' and 'Dark' also apply?
A cartoon that has been acclaimed as Disney's 'darkest' production was 1988's The Brave Little Toaster. That is an AWESOME film. Catch this 'dream sequence' (aka The Clown Dream) |
:
The clown and flower sequence are really the only thing in TBLT that I would label "disturbing". The rest is just very, very odd. Who here is familiar with The Adventures of Mark Twain? |
ahh yes I remember that, it is scary indeed
|
The brave little toaster always did scare me. There was something oh so very eerie about it.

:
OVA ofc |

Jesus, I was going to say the Heffalump Movie but Used wins.

I loved The Brave Little Toaster as a kid, need to see it again sometime.
Dead Bart You know how Fox has a weird way of counting Simpsons episodes? They refuse to count a couple of them, making the amount of episodes inconsistent. The reason for this is a lost episode from season 1. Finding details about this missing episode is difficult, no one who was working on the show at the time likes to talk about it. From what has been pieced together, the lost episode was written entirely by Matt Groening. During production of the first season, Matt started to act strangely. He was very quiet, seemed nervous and morbid. Mentioning this to anyone who was present results in them getting very angry, and forbidding you to ever mention it to Matt. I first heard of it at an event where David Silverman was speaking. Someone in the crowd asked about the episode, and Silverman simply left the stage, ending the presentation hours early. The episode's production number was 7G06, the title was Dead Bart. The episode labeled 7G06, Moaning Lisa, was made later and given Dead Bart's production code to hide the latter's existence. In addition to getting angry, asking anyone who was on the show about this will cause them to do everything they can to stop you from directly communicating with Matt Groening. At a fan event, I managed to follow him after he spoke to the crowd, and eventually had a chance to talk to him alone as he was leaving the building. He didn't seem upset that I had followed him, probably expected a typical encounter with an obsessive fan. When I mentioned the lost episode though, all color drained from his face and he started trembling. When I asked him if he could tell me any details, he sounded like he was on the verge of tears. He grabbed a piece of paper, wrote something on it, and handed it to me. He begged me never to mention the episode again. The piece of paper had a website address on it, I would rather not say what it was, for reasons you'll see in a second. I entered the address into my browser, and I came to a site that was completely black, except for a line of yellow text, a download link. I clicked on it, and a file started downloading. Once the file was downloaded, my computer went crazy, it was the worst virus I had ever seen. System restore didn't work, the entire computer had to be rebooted. Before doing this though, I copied the file onto a CD. I tried to open it on my now empty computer, and as I suspected, there was an episode of The Simpsons on it. The episode started off like any other episode, but had very poor quality animation. If you've seen the original animation for Some Enchanted Evening, it was similar, but less stable. The first act was fairly normal, but the way the characters acted was a little off. Homer seemed angrier, Marge seemed depressed, Lisa seemed anxious, Bart seemed to have genuine anger and hatred for his parents. The episode was about the Simpsons going on a plane trip, near the end of the first act, the plane was taking off. Bart was fooling around, as you'd expect. However, as the plane was about 50 feet off the ground, Bart broke a window on the plane and was sucked out. At the beginning of the series, Matt had an idea that the animated ****of the Simpsons' world represented life, and that death turned things more realistic. This was used in this episode. The picture of Bart's corpse was barely recognizable, they took full advantage of it not having to move, and made an almost photo-realistic drawing of his dead body. Act one ended with the shot of Bart's corpse. When act two started, Homer, Marge, and Lisa were sitting at their table, crying. The crying went on and on, it got more pained, and sounded more realistic, better acting than you would think possible. The animation started to decay even more as they cried, and you could hear murmuring in the background. The characters could barely be made out, they were stretching and blurring, they looked like deformed shadows with random bright colors thrown on them. There were faces looking in the window, flashing in and out so you were never sure what they looked like. This crying went on for all of act two. Act three opened with a title card saying one year had passed. Homer, Marge, and Lisa were skeletally thin, and still sitting at the table. There was no sign of Maggie or the pets. They decided to visit Bart's grave. Springfield was completely deserted, and as they walked to the cemetery the houses became more and more decrepit. They all looked abandoned. When they got to the grave, Bart's body was just lying in front of his tombstone, looking just like it did at the end of act one. The family started crying again. Eventually they stopped, and just stared at Bart's body. The camera zoomed in on Homer's face. According to summaries, Homer tells a joke at this part, but it isn't audible in the version I saw, you can't tell what Homer is saying. The view zoomed out as the episode came to a close. The tombstones in the background had the names of every Simpsons guest star on them. Some that no one had heard of in 1989, some that haven't been on the show yet. All of them had death dates on them. For guests who died since, like Michael Jackson and George Harrison, the dates were when they would die. The credits were completely silent, and seemed handwritten. The final image was the Simpson family on their couch, like in the intros, but all drawn in hyper realistic, lifeless ****of Bart's corpse. A thought occurred to me after seeing the episode for the first time, you could try to use the tombstones to predict the death of living Simpsons guest stars, but there's something odd about most of the ones who haven't died yet. All of their deaths are listed as the same date. This is the story of Dead Bart. We are its legend. |
tl;dr.
|
I was much too old to find this scary when it came out (I think it aired when I was about twenty or something, but I watched it with my cousin who is about fifteen years younger), but I found it to be utterly bizarre. It scared my little cousin. |
Don't really know what to say about that but Used, that was horrible! No one tops this in a day u win!

More to the point: What? |

NOW NOT ANOTHER MENTION OF THIS ELSE THIS THREAD BE RENAMED 'LOST SIMPSONS EPISODE DEBATE' |

Omigod. That simpsons episode sounds like I would piss my pants watching it. What was the date for all of the people who had yet to die, you said it was the same date?
WHAT WAS THE LINK??? I won't go to it, just go to it on a public computer or something. OOH! I know! Upload the video to the computer and post it so we can see it! I looked for it on youtube, and all I could find was some bad acting and a soundtrack where you couldn't hear anything really, and the picture was of a video casette and the guy who made it kept putting in comments telling us what was happening. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPBGnjz9xUI I think the way MeechMunchie described it was scarier, and the video only played like five minutes. So....yeah. Salad fingers isn't scary, I find most episodes funny asept for six because he eats himself. I know why, but I still don't like the episode. All I remember from The Brave Little Toaster is the animals singing about how that one guy saved them. Courage isn't scary, I used to think it was funny, now I watch it and it's like 'Really? I liked this shit?' AND GOD USED WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU? That video was just obscene! The dog clawing at the bars trying to get away only to melt...the boy looking up to see his friend half burned away... the woman and her infant child melting and falling on eachother... AND DONT' ANYONE SAY THAT IT WAS A TERRIBLE THING TO DO! It was, I'm not saying bombing them wasn't, but c'mon it was a war! And besides....that cartoon....was just obscene. |
:
A quick Google search reveals that it is merely what is known on the internet as "creepypasta". |
Hirsoshima cartoon was indeed frightening, but it was engineered to be so.
In contrast, I give you Malice in Wonderland. |
@Mac Sirloin - that was just fucked up.
@Oddjob- I fail to see the link to the video in that thread. Also, it is not creepy pasta, my audiovid proovs that. |
I wasn't trying to link you to the video; I was attempting to demonstrate that no such video exists.

Salad fingers, for sure

You guys ruin all the fun.

It would be an interesting tidbit, if it was true.... I'll admit that. It's a fetching enough legend as it is.

All pretty scary, I dont really want to go back to the dead Bart thing but I just saw that he copied and pasted the description from a game spot thread, Daxter youuuu.
To skip quickly back on topic, I think that the title is still up for grabs! Nate your is err terryfying @ MAc that really is terryfying! |
:
I for one, think this video should be watched again and again, untill people realize what happens when you bomb a country like that. |
When The Wind Blows, I guess.
|
:
Courage did creep me out a few times. Most notably in the episode about perfection and Courage has those trippy dreams. The one with the squiggly guy was eerie. |
I sometimes still watch Courage. One episode used to scare the crap out of me.
Does anybody know the name of the episode where Muriel stops talking and Courage goes to that fortune teller woman to get help? |
:
Same story, though some people have made an effort to deepen the myths on Suicide Mouse and Crystal Cove by making actual videos of them. |

After looking for dead bart I found a few really scary things.
The grifter was a vid someone posted a while back. From what I could gather, it involved really scary shit like dead babies and puppies that cried like children. People who watched it not only got nausea, some also committed suicide. The closest you will get to the origional video (because it got taken off everywhere) is a green vid of someone running down a hallway. There was this glitch (or so i think, maybe it was just shopped) of a guy who typed in 666 after the youtube url. Then he kept refreshing the page. At first nothing ahppened, but then the vids stopped loading, then the screen got red, then black, then textured like rotten skin, then red and textured like coagulated blood with that skin texture for the white windows. there was a box that said 'channel results for 666' and he clicked on it. The first vid was deranged, dolls dancing to some strange screeching noise. the second vid was a green and orange blur beating like a heart. The guy clicked on the last vid and a box saying nothing came up. All it had was a button. The guy clicked the button and watched the vid, which was blood-red and showing a girl getting pushed onto a table and brutally torn apart while roaches feast on her organs. The guy tried the back button. Nothing happened. Same for the close button and the 'end task' button. The guy even tried to shut off the computer, but the words were in gibberish and that didn't work either. All the time the vid kept playing, the girls screaming and the doctors hissing gibberish getting louder and louder while the guy flitted around the screen, trying to figure out what to do and then a hand came up in the vid and the glitch vid stopped, so either the glitch shut off the computer or the guy unplugged the computer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iFXyLah2oQ here's the vid if you wanna see it. there was also this last one, I'm not even sure if I want to tell you guys, but I wtache dlike two minutes of the video and cried, then vomited because it was so brutal, so //////////wrist inducing. So hateful. Umm as for scary cartoons, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBGGAjMg9vw Here's a video for the adventures of mark twain and it was banned because it involved SATAN DER NER NER NER |
I seriously hope that was a joke post gwan, if not, you should look up suicide mouse.
