10 Movies That Terrify You (But Definitely Shouldn't)

9. Edward Scissorhands

Here we see the terrifyingly zealous neighbourhood force-feeding the kind, polite Edward Scissorhands; who has become the local celebrity due to being a fascinating invention of Vincent Price. A bit creepy, but not entirely scary, you say. That is until Edward dodges the seduction attempts of a desperately lonely housewife, only to be smacked with rape charges. The more scenes you watch of this Tim Burton classic, the more your heart is annihilated with insufferable grief as poor Edward gets more and more perplexed and frightened at this accusing society. He even kills a man. To conclude the 105 minutes of pure anguish, we're faced with the shattering ending of Edward leaving the girl he loves and going back to his castle to DIE ALONE. Good grief, man.
