Power Rangers/Nightmare Fuel: Difference between revisions

* The arc of ''Lightspeed Rescue'' in which Ryan gets a cursed "tattoo" burned into his back by the [[Big Bad]], and whenever he morphs the tattoo moves up his body even more, until it reaches his neck, at which point it will kill him. The tattoo moved during a [[Nightmare Sequence]], too.

* Frax's death in ''Time Force'' was a [[Dies Wide Open]] involving a scream and parts of his robotic face falling apart. This after his having been reprogrammed into a mindless automaton by the Big Bad.

* ''RPM'' has one of the main characters tearing [[Mecha Mooks]] apart off-screen, in the first episode. As he leaves, we pan away to see the carnage, complete with the lower half of one of the mooks stumbling on-panel before falling lifelessly to the ground. That perfectly illustrates the [[Darker and Edgier]] tone of the entire series.

* In the final arc of ''Mystic Force'', the Master has been incubating in the body of one of his followers, who has had a change of heart and intends to spend eternity in the "sleeping lake" to prevent his return. Just when it looks like he's about to succeed, he's prevented from reaching the lake by another villain. The Rangers, and the audience, are treated to the sight of the Master's hatching from him: parts of his body swell before tentacles burst out of him from within, causing bluish ichor to fly. Finally, his body bursts apart and falls about the Master's heretofore-unseen true form like an empty sack. Then, the Master promptly subjects one of the heroes to [[Mind Rape]], making him experience his own death at the Master's hands/tentacles. That scene was in [[Mahou Sentai Magiranger|its source series]] as well.

* The final battle of "In Space" has Zordon dying, before he releases a wave of goodness that destroys evil. Sounds good until after destroying a few groups of monsters we see it heading towards Rita and Zedd, the amusing and lovable, though always effective, villains we've spent the entire series growing fond of are now faced with an inescapable wave of flaming death rapidly approaching them as Rita screams in terror for her husband to not let it get her. Thankfully everything ended up all right for her and Zedd.

** Retcons actually make the purification of Rita and Zedd quite horrifying. [[Power Rangers Operation Overdrive|Operation Overdrive]] shows that, while evil, they had a son, only a year or two prior to their purification. A son that wasn't purified with them, who continued to be a villain, and who seems to treat them as having died in the purification: a kid whose parents, one day when he was two, just left to go to work, and came back as unrecognizable, completely different people.

* One more from ''Mighty Morphin'': Rita's War Zord Cyclopsis, from ''Doomsday''. Rita brings her palace to Earth, giving her the power she needs to raise it from the mantle. It was scary enough to make the Megazord's knees tremble. It took the Ultrazord to beat it.

* [[Mind Control|"Hail Lord Zedd, Hail Lord Zedd..."]], and [[Funny Moments (Sugar Wiki)|"Hail Lord Fred, Hail Lord Fred..."]] for Bulk and Skull.
