::Shivers:: This is one clip I never wanted to see again! I dreaded seeing the alien come out of the ship, lol. Now he's pretty funny (but still unnerving! Hehe).

And I understand Dr. Tooth, seeing that kids face disapear would be quite disturbing to a kid!

Scariest SS Clip

To this day I'm embarassed to say that I'm still freaked out by the "Mummy Ernie" skit. The one where Ernie and Bert go into the temple and there's a mummy resembling Ernie. They eventually sing and dance together singing "Rubber Duckie." :eek:
The opening and closing music adds to the creepieness of the skit.

One sketch that kinda still haunts me a little was the stop-motion sketch with the kerosene lamp. There was something about the music that made me feel uneasy. :eek:

I TOTALLY remember that one! I can see why you'd be scared by it (though I absolutely loved it as a kid). The synthesizer is pretty eerie (plus the way the lamp appears to be assembling ITS OWN SELF!)

Did anyone mention the kids running away from the giant green Dragon looking rabbit yet? That had to have caused some trauma... I didn't like it (nor did I get the point) when I was it on Old School 2.
