They told our parents these were "family films", but what we got were psychological thrillers dressed in cartoon gloves. In this kickoff to our descent into cinematic betrayal, we revisit the movies that came with songs and smiles but hit us with body horror, death, and despair. From WILLY WONKA’s haunted tunnel to THE BRAVE LITTLE TOASTER’s junkyard of doom, this is where the trauma began - and we’re still trying to make sense of it. If you’ve ever had a sudden flashback to wheeled headless queens or singing air conditioners having breakdowns, you’re not alone.
