Yellow Submarine/Nightmare Fuel

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • The sound effects and incidental music provide the assist to make the final push of the Deranged Animation into Nightmare Fuel territory.
  • The screaming clown with the spinning head. Oh dear God, the clown!
  • Those fits the Chief Blue Meanie went into when stressed.
  • The Dreadful Flying Glove. Most of the other meanies are that wacky, crazy type of evil, but the Glove is just pure, unfettered evil.
  • The Sea of Monsters, with all the multicolored, smiling creatures and strange noises were just so unsettling.
  • The "Sea of Time" is sort of creepy for those afraid of mortality and aging.
  • The weird math equations, soundwave diagrams (the only live-action effects within the movie itself), and Andy Warhol-esque portraits of the Beatles floating in the Sea of Science, along with George's creepy, passive-aggressive "Only A Northern Song", make for one of the most inexplicably disturbing moments in the film.
  • Jeremy. In his entirety. Every single moment. Always.
  • When the boss Meanie raked his claws across his face and said "O-blue-terate them!"
