Have you ever put on a movie you used to watch as a kid and picked up on a couple of scenes that you only now understand? That's because you didn't really know what you were watching. Children often fall in love with films that seem harmless in their eyes but are actually quite unsettling when seen with an adult mind. It's not our filthy, sexual, violent minds twisting innocent ideas into horrific situations that make the movies messed up. The movies were already messed up when we were kids, only now we can tell how.

1. "Antz" (1998)

Friends and family gather around for this fantastic film about a worker ant that fakes being a hero to win the prince's heart! That's right, this "hero" is literally the only one to survive the gruesome war between the ants and the creepy giant beetles!

Most messed up scene: Z picks up his soldier friend's head to hear his last words.

2. "The NeverEnding Story" (1984)

You can watch the whole scene and cry your heart out.

3. "The Secret Of NIMH" (1982)

In case you weren't aware NIMH stands for National Institute of Mental Health. Jonathan Brisby saved rats from animal experimentation that messed with their brain to turn them into "smart" rats. If you're surprised it was that dramatic it's because they never explain exactly what's going on, they just show pictures of it.

4. "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" (1988)

Other than the obviously over-sexualized Jessica Rabbit (which is messed up on so many levels) there's the scene where Dr. Doom dips an innocent cartoon shoe into a vat of acid. P.S. the detective later threatens Roger Rabbit by grabbing him by the collar and pushing him towards the "Dip."

5. "Chicken Run" (2000)

The whole plot of the movie is to turn chickens into chicken pies. It's about factory farming. In real life it looks like this:

Try showing that to kids.

6. "Peter Pan" (1953)

Wendy and company's visit to the "Injuns" (that's how they referred to themselves) comes with song and all about how they got the red color of their skin. Blatant racism. In fact, a lot of Disney's earlier movies are blatantly racist. Don't believe me? There's other thoughts on this.

7. "Pinocchio" (1940)

Last but certainly not least there's little "Pinocchio" smoking, drinking and gambling with the rest of the stolen children. There's nothing weird about an old man hiring a fox to coax kids into coming to "Pleasure Island," right?

There you have it pals, seven movies that were really messed up and we used to watch them over and over as kids. Creepy, I know. Now that I totally destroyed your childhood let's take a moment to appreciate the power of knowledge. Sure, being a kid was awesome, but that's over now. It's time to be aware.
