everything welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’re counting down our picks for
the top 10 scary moments from Stephen
King movies before we begin we published
new videos every day
so be sure to subscribe for more great
content for this list we’re looking at
scenes and films based on Stephen King
stories that scared the bejesus out of
us a spoiler alert is now in effect Paul
do you know about the early days at the
Kimberly diamond mines do you know what
they did to the native workers who stole
diamonds don’t worry they didn’t kill
them
number 10 dragged by tentacles the mist
hey I want to go it was my idea being a
protagonist in Stephen King’s horror
stories is difficult enough but let’s
take a moment to feel for the secondary
characters who really have it rough as
an unnatural mist rolls over a small
town grocery store bag boy norm rises to
the challenge bravely volunteering to
venture outside and unblock a generator
exhaust pipe nor meatless to say he
doesn’t get very far what makes the
scene so agonizing is how long it takes
for norm to be dragged into the mist
number nine execution gone wrong the
Green Mile roll online The Green Mile is
not a horror movie but it still has its
fair share of chilling moments thanks in
large part to sadistic prison officer
Percy Wetmore when Percy sabotages
inmate Edouard Delacroix’s execution we
all know what’s about to happen when the
switch is thrown but that doesn’t make
for over two and a half minutes the
helpless dellacroix convulses as
electric current shoots through him as
the people-watching swarm the exit only
to find the doors chained shut it’s hard
not to feel trapped with them forced to
watch as Delacroix’s head explodes in
number eight the diner slaughter
children of the corn
[Music]
for the locals at the diner and sleepy
farming town Gatlin Nebraska it seems
like a normal day but something wicked
this way comes there’s something
particularly disturbing about creepy
children and Isaac kroner the 12 year
old who convinces the children of Gatlin
to murder their parents as human
sacrifices to a demon in the cornfields
is pretty damn creepy as job one of the
few good kids in the town looks on the
adults who aren’t poisoned first are cut
to pieces by knives farm tools and of
course a meat slicer it happened
everywhere in Gatlin that day number 7
according to Stephen King’s novels Maine
is a lot more than the pine tree state
it’s also the playground of vampires
demons and invading aliens when Ralph
Glick is kidnapped and turned into a
vampire in Salem’s Lot he returns home
like a good kid to feast on his brother
Danny as ralph floats outside the window
and billowing fog an entranced Danny is
glad to see him again and opens the
window to let his little brother in not
realizing he’s about to join the ranks
of the undead
[Music]
number six helpful neighbor 14:08 but
where is the bone-chilling terror
show me the rivers of blood professional
skeptic Mike Enslin believes everything
has a logical explanation but when he’s
trapped in a haunted hotel room he
realizes he’s in over his head luckily a
man in the window opposite sees him
gesturing for help but as the stranger
mirrors his movements in Flynn realizes
that the other man is himself
oh he’s completely trapped alone in a
world he can’t understand at the mercy
of the same supernatural forces he spent
his lifetime debunking and what’s worse
number five Donna gets bitten Cujo worry
about it
Cujo is a friendly st. Bernard until the
bite of a rabid bat turns him into a
raging monster trapped in her car in the
baking hot Sun with her frightened son
tad Donna steps out to see if it’s safe
to leave well we’ll go ahead and ruin
the surprise right now it’s not Cujo
malls Donna’s arm then launches himself
into the car on top of her as her son
screams in terror managing to beat the
animal back Donna is left wounded and
much like the audience trembling in her
[Music]
number four carries revenge carry
it might be because we empathize with
Kerry so much that she also terrifies us
we’ve seen the trauma she’s been through
and felt the anger building inside her
her humiliation at prom is the last
straw
as the bullied and blood-soaked Kerry
unleashes her vengeance on the school
students and staff flee for the doors
but there’s no escape from Kerry’s
frenzied telekinetic rage
seeing Kerry reveal her supernatural
powers to the world is a hair-raising
skin tingling kind of moment and the
gut-wrenching moment sympathy turns into
horror makes the scene as memorable as
it is disturbing
number three come play with us Danny The
Shining there’s something off about the
isolated Overlook Hotel he needs all the
ghosts in the Gold Room or Danny’s
vision of blood pouring from the
elevator but the Grady sisters probably
also have something to do with it as
Danny rides his bike through the empty
corridors he suddenly encounters two
girls standing eerily still a vision
reveals the awful truth the girls are
dead hacked to death with an axe by
their own father with the reassurances
of Danny’s imaginary friend Tony don’t
really make the scene any less creepy
it’s just like it is a real number to
the hobbling misery I’m my number one
fan in many of these moments it’s the
sense of utter helplessness that’s
really unnerving in misery romance
novelist Paul Sheldon becomes the
prisoner of obsessed fan Annie Wilkes
there’s something about the nurses calm
professional tone as she prepares to
break his ankles that’s especially
chilling but they also had to make sure
they could never run away the operation
was called hobbling strapped to the bed
he can only strain futile eat as the
block is laid and Annie raises the
burst on the scene originally called for
Paul’s whole foot to be chopped off
but the crunch of those broken ankles
might be even worse god I love you
before we reveal the identity of our top
pick here are some honorable mentions
[Music]
there are plenty of scares in both the
original miniseries
and the movie adaptation of it Georgie’s
apparent return from the dead was the
stuff of nightmares and Pennywise
crawling out of the projector left
audiences breathless with terror there’s
something horribly real about Georgie’s
first encounter with stranger danger as
he walks the streets alone when he peers
into a drain after his paper boat Georgi
meets the not so friendly neighborhood
clown who strikes up a playful
conversation then bites the boy’s arm
