10 Creepy Movie Moments Everyone Missed
7. The Masturbating Hogwarts Monkey - Harry Potter & The Chamber Of Secrets
As a general rule of thumb, it's smart to keep sexual content out of family-friendly entertainment, though nature occasionally finds a way regardless, as was the case with Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
When Professor McGonagall (Maggie Smith) is conducting a class at Hogwarts, those who pay close attention to the left-hand side of the frame might notice a monkey in a cage - a Mandrill, more precisely - who happens to be pleasuring himself while McGonagall is talking.
It wouldn't be quite so eerie if director Chris Columbus didn't immediately cut from a clear shot of the monkey playing with himself to reaction shots of the class, including Harry (Daniel Radcliffe), Hermione (Emma Watson), and Ron (Rupert Grint), as if to hammer the awkwardness home.
