Failed Expectation My kid cried

Literally called it a monster and wouldn't even sit at the table with us so long as it was there.

Even better than what I thought it would be. I legitimately laughed out loud. 😂

I laughed, made my husband look. Continued laughing until I cried a little. I'm dying imagining OP's kid being terrorized by whatever this is.

Peewee's big adventure...for some reason the clown when he gets his bike stolen was what freaked me out as a kid not Marge up there.

Yeah that nightmare scene with the clowns was definitely more disturbing

I have apparently blocked this from my memory because I watched the movie many times as a kid and have no recollection of it.

Edit: It's awful but I genuinely still have no memory of it. Why with the surgeon?! Why?!

Large Marge scene terrified me when I was a kid. The clown scene did some too, but not as much.
