10 Horror Movie Moments You'll Never Be Able To Unsee

Considering its light and campy tone, you wouldn't expect M3GAN to feature anything too disturbing, but much like the killer robot herself, there are far nastier things lurking beneath the film's seemingly child-friendly exterior.

Designed to be the ultimate best friend for Cady, a young girl suffering from the loss of her parents, the titular doll soon starts taking her programming a little too seriously and begins making violent threats towards anyone who'd dare to harm her new best friend.

So, naturally, when a nasty young bully decides to target Cady at a local gathering, M3GAN steps in to protect her. At first, the young lad laughs at M3GAN, even going so far as to hit her, but ever the calm and collected machine, M3GAN takes this all in her stride before grabbing the boy's ear and pulling it far outside of the limits that an ear should go - all in graphic, close-up detail. 

Violence towards kids is something that always gets a reaction out of an audience, and it's especially effective in a film where, up until this point, it has been a fairly light thrill-ride. The effect used to show the ear stretching also needs shouting out for how gross and bizarre it looks.
