BEWARE, THIS ARTICLE CONTAINS SPOILERS (shocking scenes often happening towards the end of films)...
I think that everyone has been traumatized by a scene in a film when they were kids, at least once. I've been traumatized many times, images getting stuck in my mind and leaving a permanent imprint. These ten films have traumatized me in a good way, turning me into the movie fan I am today. Some scenes were just so visually striking that I was shocked, while others were really tragic and sad and had to impress the mind of a child. So here is my Top 10 of the most traumatizing scenes of my childhood.
1. Dumbo's mother cradling him with her trunk while she's in a prison cell in Dumbo (1941)
2. Dave murdering HAL in 2001: A Space Odyssey (Stanley Kubrick, 1968)
3. John Merrick crying "I am not an elephant! I am not an animal! I am a human being!", in The Elephant Man (David Lynch, 1980) - the film is my number 1 in the most traumatizing films EVER.
4. Edward destroying his hands while his creator is dying of a heart attack in Edward Scissorhands (Tim Burton, 1990)
`5. The death of Victoria Page in The Red Shoes (Michael Powell & Emeric Pressburger, 1948)
6. The black mask and costume of Wolfgang's father, later worn by Salieri in Amadeus (Milos Forman, 1984)
8. The transformation of Sarah into a vampire at the end of The Fearless Vampire Killers (Roman Polanski, 1967)
9. Maleficient's raven turning into stone in Sleeping Beauty (1959).
10. E.T leaving Earth in E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (Steven Spielberg, 1982)
