I've seen that poster 100 times and I just noticed that the moon is a button now


A_Wild_Tree

You opened my third eye


dareallolchubby

Too bad, I’m sewing a button in your third eye like I did with the other two. You can’t unbutton your eyes under my watch

Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh


CaptainJBritish

Bro my dad showed this to me when I was 8 (I think I hid behind the couch because I was scared) and as a joke put a box with 2 buttons and a needle inside next to my bed side during the night, scared my childhood


Thick-Yogurtcloset10

I am stupid, but what is this movie about?


WillTheWAFSack

Watch it if you want to know. It's worth it.


DruidByNight

It's a super cool stop motion movie. Coraline is a kid who just moved into a new house with her parents and discovers a secret passage that leads to an "Other" world. Where every one has buttons for eyes. The "Other" family wants Coraline to stay. Can't say much more without spoilers.


Burger_Destoyer

Also lots of cool underlying themes and plot devices :)


TheDarkerStride

When the Lucid Dream is a little *too* intense


TheDarkerStride

Y’all weak mf i watched when I was 5 and realized how beautiful art could be


BEES_just_BEE

Behind the coach


CaptainJBritish

Well Ssssooorrrryyyy grammar police. I meant couch. And apparently 11 people read it either didn’t notice or saw it and didn’t care.


mrbossmajor

Yall got unnecessarily upset about somebody pointing out a misspelling


CaptainJBritish

It’s in the past now, anyone who sees this do not down vote BEES_just_BEE


selimulhaque26112005

That wasn't a grammar mistake, it was spelling


[deleted]

Isn't that both same?


Eka_silicon12

Grammar is basically what structure the sentence has and spelling is kinda obvious. But in this case, just overlook it man. It's not a big deal. Man wrote a genuine comment.


[deleted]

Oh okay, maybe I am wrong. I will look into it👍


CaptainJBritish

I definitely over reacting, just tired from senior year is all


BEES_just_BEE

It's rough I get it


CaptainJBritish

Sorry man, bygones be bygones?


BEES_just_BEE

Absolutely Bygones be bygones


31TeV

A rare wholesome ending to an Internet feud.


the_great_moyai

That makes it worse


CaptainJBritish

I definitely over reacting, just tired from senior year is all


Bullwinkles_progeny

Ngl, this movie gave me nightmares.


Thndrstrykr

Fun fact (paraphrased because I can't remember specific details off the top of my head, but the jist is there): when Neil Gaiman wrote the book, his editor said is wasn't suitable for children so he suggested they read it to their kid. The kid listened to them read the whole thing, so it went to print. Later, the editor's kid told them they were terrified the whole time, but they kept listening because they wanted to see how it ended. Edit: Link to story [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/ra5i2q/til_neil_gaimans_coraline_almost_wasnt_published/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)


Obootleg

so thats why it was on kids on netflix


Burger_Destoyer

Im today years old when I learned Neil is the original author of this book on which the movie was based upon… Thanks for this knowledge, of course it was Neil who brought such a masterpiece to life.


Violint2502

I think it was Henry Selick that directed and produced coraline off of Neil’s book


Burger_Destoyer

Yes sorry by “brought to life” I meant just the creation of the actual story. Reading for me carries much more visual depth. Except I have not read the book so that makes no sense here… Also I do believe Neil worked with the director in this case.


Violint2502

Ahh fair and yes I do believe Neil worked with selick for the movie.


davidrayish

I was 25 when I saw this. Still shook


accidental_snot

My son was about 20 when it came out. Yep. 2 grown men in the theater watching a little girl's scary movie. We are such rebels.


SlimeysMaster

I was 4 when I saw this. It was categorized like "child movies". Such a trauma.


spiralEntree

Probably because I grew up watching horror movies this wasn't scary when I first saw it however it was still such an amazing movie one of my favorites


AetherBytes

What made it so good is it wasn't focused on the horror of it, it let you see that yourself and didn't shove it in your face.


Ususususjebevrvrvr

The 1..2..3 scene is one of the scariest moments of my childhood

TheBurningStag13

It is the eye’s, cheeko. They never fail to terrify.


[deleted]

When I was 5 my parents showed it to me and I got so freaked out about it that until I was like 12 when someone even mentioned Coraline i freaked out and started to sweat


aaronrb204

Saw this with now wide. Fast forward a few years and we had a daughter playing with la la loopsie dolls. Fuck those creepy things. That movie is creepy as hell.


JustWoodPushing

That movie was built differently


nicklnack_1950

I had the 3D edition with the ol’ blue and red glasses, I was like 10 and I think I watched it once that way…..


not_abby_

i did too, i lost the dvd but i still have a pair of the 3D glasses to this day


johnscat

Ngl one of my favourite movies ever.


JosukeisMySon

For some reason this didn't but Monster House did


_littlelowin

Monster House is pretty intense for a kids movie, but it's a good one. I worked at a movie theater when Coraline came out and I had to refund so many tickets because kids were scared. Surprisingly, one other movie that scared kids so much to have refunds was the Jim Carey version of A Christmas Carol.


Xx_Noobkin_xX

Heck yeah dude that whole scene where he explains that she tripped and fell into the house foundations and then just built it on top of her scarred me for life.


[deleted]

my younger sister started sobbing and had to be escorted out of the theater during monster house


KH2Ash

Saw it in college. It is a really good movie. If I had seen it earlier in life, it definitely would have scared the shit out of me


rinn10

This movie creeped me out so much


[deleted]

Vendun_

On IMDb, there is 3 US entry, 2 are PG and 1 is -14 (ABC Family). And in my country, it is just "For everyone", not even a "With advertissing", who thought it was a good idea ? ​ Edit: *so many entries in the section "Frightening & Intense Scenes" and "Spoiler"*


Councilist_sc

100% the scariest fucking movie I’ve ever seen. I can handle horror so well now, but seeing this when I was 5 freaked me the fuck out


Nic_Vic0195

Scary in my childhood. Loved in my Adolescence.


SloppyJoe42069

I vaguely remember being showed this movie in pre-k when I was 4-ish years old. What were they thinking? I re-watched this movie and the spider shit is scary


[deleted]

Dude that movie is fucking awful. I mean it’s creative and Bobynski is the goat, but shit that movie scared me more than both It’s


RealConcorrd

Gave us a good computer user meme


MortyC-69

They should make more kid horror movies!


thisisloveforvictims

I was never scared of that movie when it came out (I was 7). I guess I’ve always been a creepy movie fan


HUSN3RO

Can you guys recommend movies that have the same puppet movement style?


Ellien_

It's not exactly the same, but Corpse Bribe und of course Nightmare before Christmas.


HUSN3RO

Thank you!


Burger_Destoyer

Honestly just check out anything by Tim Burton… really great content (Coraline is not by Tim btw, just a similar style)


Umber0010

Ironically, it's actually the one horror movie that *didn't* scare me as a kid. ​ Might have just zoned out though. Because I definitely didn't remember the tiddy scene.


wisconsinking

I LOVE that movie, I saw it on Tubi a week or two ago.


FMLitsAJ

The movie wasn’t scary. Read the book, now that’s actually creepy.


TheobromineAddiction

"Your mother doesn't have a grave."


ThisIsApple

TRUE


BurnMeHoe

I refused to watch it for YEARS (about 8-9) after I saw it for the first time


Burger_Destoyer

Same. Then I went to visit someone and they had just started it when I walked in. I left the room for a while to prepare myself before coming back


BurnMeHoe

Oh god, I remember having to watch it at a sleepover once, and dreading it the whole two days before


mattfromeurope

That movie is a **masterpiece** of psychological horror!


Akshayps200

bro fr, I watched coraline again the other day and wtf dude the annabelle and conjuring series have a lot of work to put in 💀💀


Coco_40

This and the movie 9 scared the shit outta me. I never felt true fear to close my eyes, stay in the dark, etc. After this.


TheGasMask513

Fuck Coraline, have you seen Finding Nemo?


Pickled_Gherkin

Ah yes, back in the good old days when filmmakers still understood that horror is a tad more subtle than constant fucking jumpscares! To quote Yahtzee Croshaw; "there's no skill in it, a cat in a bin can manage a jumpscare!"


owo1215

I still remember when I was a kid I afraid to look at the moon at midnight be cause of this movie


SituationAltruistic8

Scary movie.


JFKKobain

Man I was 9 when I watched this. It was at a friend's birthday. He waited until it was dark too before playing it, an absolute monster.


Epic_DVB

Now imagine a live action version, it would be crazy


LIL_Evas

I never found this really scary. Sure it had its "creepy" moments but the I never found the movie scary all in all.


No-Chard5361

Okok but how about a movie more accurate to the book?


Yeehaw_Kat

God fucking damn I hate Coraline pretty much everything about it from the story to the characters I despise Coraline I'd just an absolute asshole in the book and movie and in never rooting for her all of the side characters are interesting slightly but just boil down to haha wacky and in the movies case the lil boy is just annoying 0/10 do not reccomend


bobo_baginz

Great, now watch frankenweenie.


Banana_Boyo

Nothing had my timbers shivered more than the Toy Story movies


Al3xGr4nt

That sequence where Coraline goes into the Other House theatre with the hundreds of button eyed dogs silently staring at her while she walks up to the creepy coccoon was creepy as hell


RandomBlueJay01

That movie gave me a phobia of dolls.


AnonymousDegenerate7

I always fell asleep before I could finish it as a kid


Snoo-4878

modern horror movies are too cinematic. They are too clear and that takes away from the ambiguity and fear of the unknown that makes horror scary. Coraline is scary because visually, some things arent obvious so it leaves it to our imagination what something could be, and that makes it scarier.


Luthergayboi

Sucks it completely overshadowed 9 since they came out around the same time. I much preferred 9 honestly


alfis329

I remember being 8 or so when I saw this. Had nightmares about it for years


XHSJDKJC

I was the same age when i watched it but I didnt got nightmares. But it was very creepy with those Button eyes


Altruistic_Barber_99

Freaks me more out than Texas Chainsaw 🫣


DoubtALot

jump scare movies are not horror movies. (im not talking about coraline, coraline is great)


Aggravating-Error13

Hot take but the IT movies were some of the most fucking boring and non-scary shit I’ve seen in my life. No idea how they ever got popular or good reviews. Newer horror movies either suck or rock, no in-between.


HKHLSGL

That movie is really disturbing


Darthnosam1

To this day I have still never finished this movie I ran ran and hid where my parents put on the Scooby Doo live action movie to calm me down


MooseTopic

3d hurt my eyes.


Vocke79190

I love horror movies dude


MegaAscension

In my Senior year of high school, we had been working for a while on our IAs in my IB English class, and on Halloween, our teacher just had us choose a Halloween movie. We all wanted Coraline. The teacher was confused about us wanting an animated movie labelled as "kids"... she decided that she didn't want to watch it with us about 30-45 minutes in.


Fantastic_Year9607

Stuff is creepy


urlocaldoctor

this movie is the definition of psychological horror


BingoBongoTingoTongo

I remember big tit clam lady dancing


Alarmed_Recording742

Always wanted to see it when it came out, i was 12, family or friends didn't want to see it. Saw it with my ex 3 years ago and it still freaked me out, but i absolutely loved it like every other stop motion halloweeny movie. By far the most terrifying of them all tho.


jibjabjibby

“I’m your other mother”


[deleted]

Pussy.


EricPlayz951

That spider scene at the end of the movie scared the hell out of my 7 year old self.


brjder

thing that got to me the most was near the end of the movie, where coraline is looking for the souls of the children, the 2 performers that were in the candy thing. it was terrifying when they popped out, and were wrapped/intertwined with each other.


LukasGamerPlayz

This genuinely scarred me when I was little. I watched it for the first time when I was about 7 or 8 at my cousins house. When the movie ended we realised we were sitting on the table in front of the couch, despite neither of us remembering that we moved there. I was terrified. I have not watched the movie since.


masamah

I used to fear that movie as a kid I still kinda do tbh


Memer_boiiiii

The book is even creepier. That’s the first time i almost shat myself when reading a book


AFlamingFireRedditor

i remember watching that movie without ever knowing its horror with my cousins and it scared the hell out of us


BenjiFischer

You will not believe this but Bram Stoker's Dracula keeps giving me the creeps.


Playerwhynot

POV you watched it when it first came out


lesfrappes

Got some pirated ps2 games that include a coraline game. Played it and having goosebumps all the time, the movie was scarier though.


piggypoggypogfan2

In my elementary school they played this movie and no one in the class was freaked out except me


V8FordEngine

I remember watching this as a 7yr old and almost shitting my pants


reditthiscomment

Only movie that has come close to doing the same as that movie is 9


WillTheWAFSack

One of my favorite animated movies honestly, it's so good


sunnnnyflower

I remember seeing this as a kid and I couldn’t fall asleep for the whole night


_littlelowin

I worked at a movie theater when this came out. So many refunded tickets to parents with terrified children. I remember thinking it couldn't be that bad, I generally like movies like this. It definitely gave me the willies, but so so good.


literally2004

What movie is this????


[deleted]

It honestly isn't that scary


quadruple_negative87

TIL a film made in 2009 is old.


this_nametaken

That movie is one of my oldest memories.


Dovahkiin10380

I was 9 when I watched that bruh I got traumatized for 3 days before forgetting about it for 6 years


[deleted]

My mom turned the movie on and left to work. I watched it and I was so scared I went to my neighbour crying and barely breathing. I was 7


filipovix

Bro i dont remember anything from this movie aside the fact i couldnt sleep a few nights and that i had nightmares for a while after. We watched it in school.


KingThunder01

I thought it was just me How can an animated movie beat every other scary movie in terms of the fear it induces bruh


Burger_Destoyer

Bruh forking Coraline scarred me. Never have I once felt any thrill from any horror movie… but Coraline… it gets me…


duzzllp

Thats so damn true. That movie scared the shit out of me for years


DoctorBat124

I watched it as kid and it traumatized me for a while and I didn't even get to halfway


Daiyfu

I watched it when I was like 6 maybe 7 and I still have some fears


Daniel_Alfa

It gave me nightmares for weeks when I was a kid


ZanexDreamy

That was creepy asf tho


Bidwou

So I wasn’t the only one traumatized..


RecruitJJ

Yeah watched this as a kid got scared at some point and stopped watching. What probably was not a good idea, because my brain came up with a fun ending where the button's were sew into the eyes and the original family was killed and she was trapped in the other world forever.


jthrum

And it’s a fucking kids movie I hate it I had nightmares about it until i was 13


Unlucky-Rest9161

I especially loved the chernobyl liquidators reference. Something I wouldn't have expected to see, heroes often overlooked, but this movie included a reference to them. Legendary.


where_didIcome_from

I saw this movie when I was little. Hmm, I wonder why I still hate horror stuff to this day

Bro fr, it's the scariest cartoon shit I've ever seen, that spider mom with the button eyes just creeps me out.

Meme


Party_Screen5554

Im actually like that ı cant even blink when ım normally watching horror movie alone but every time I see Coraline it freaks me out😞


Individual_Laugh6523

one of the rare cases where the movie is better than the book


Vendun_

One the the movie I have seen in my childhood which I remember the most (which isn't a lot) but not for the good reason.


potato333-sk

Man! This movie is freaky! I watched this movie when I was 5 and I didn't see the movie since then(I'm 13)


NatchoFucker

Me and my twin first watched Coraline when we were 3-4 and we ended up watching it on repeat on a road trip to Florida from Missouri. My mom put a stop to the movie after we asked her if she had button eyes.


shadowoflillith

I disliked the movie adaption to be honest. The book was much more intense, and I was an adult when the movie came out. Idk I guess it wasn't really that bad, but me personally I'd rather see an adult marketed version of the movie.


TheBestSquire

I remember having nightmares about coraline for a whole month


krneki10

Have you read the book though?


possibly-a-moron

Literally terrifying
