Nightmare-Inducing Kids Movies

When it comes to the movies that petrified us as children, we tend to talk about them as though the frightening moments were some kind of mistake — the byproduct of a tonal miscalculation or the sick work of a rogue Disney animator bent on corrupting America's youth. But there's a certain subset of films aimed at the underage for which a short, sharp shock — or a long, nightmare-inducing set piece — is a key part of the package. Kids' movies can stimulate imaginations and offer thrills, spills and family-friendly chills.
