1* The Chick trying to kill herself in her review of ''Film/CityOfAngels''. There's something just...''wrong'' about seeing her breathe in a plastic bag.
2** Likewise, when the rapping comes into ''Film/SisterAct2BackInTheHabit'', she begs them to stop with apologies and PleaseIWillDoAnything. If you know her at all, you'll get that [[{{Pride}} she]] ''[[NeverMyFault never]]'' does that, so it makes it unsettling.
3* Her review of "Top 10 Disturbing and Inescapable Christmas songs" has a few instances:
4** "Fairy Tale of New York." We're treated to a few seconds of a drunk [[Music/ThePogues Shane MacGowan]], with no teeth, crying. {{Squick}}!
5** When she slows down a [[Music/AlvinAndTheChipmunks chipmunks]] song to normal speed (making the whole thing sound horribly distended and making the lyrics unnerving) while showing creepy images in black and white (old horror movies, DomesticAbuse, StuffBlowingUp, etc.) and herself miming to it with creepy gestures (and at one point her image becomes blurred so that her face looks like a skull, and it's not helped by the, um, [[AndIMustScream expression]]).
6** When she impersonates the dad of the boy from the Christmas Shoes in an incredibly creepy manner while ComicBook/TheJoker's music from ''Film/TheDarkKnight'' plays.
7* The first appearance of Dark Nella. Bonus points for a NothingIsScarier vibe before we see her and right after, Chick locked in the fridge and ''screaming over the credits''.
8* She's a horrible person, but it's still scary to see Dr. Tease looking terrified and in pain when Dark Nella destroys her.
9* We get the [[SarcasmMode delightful image]] of a completely ruined Chicago in part one of her Creator/RolandEmmerich episode, complete with being covered in a sickly green light.
10** Her breakdown in that same review is too hilarious to be creepy, but her earlier screeching at Creator/MatthewBroderick -- about how does he know the exposition he's spouting -- comes out unexpected and will at least make you jump.
11* She does her best to keep it funny, but the scenes of animal abuse she shows from the film make the ''Film/MiloAndOtis'' review very hard to watch.
12* The ''Armageddon'' review ends and the ''Franchise/{{Bratz}}'' review opens with the Critic tranquilizing the Chick, locking her in a basement and making some incredibly creepy comments. Even though he loses the power and what he's doing ends up sweet, it still comes off as rape-y.
13** It's seen as {{fanservice}} more often because of the DoubleStandard involved, but the end of the ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'' review where the Chick chloroforms the Critic, hushes him while he screams and fondles his neck while giggling is also pretty bad for implications. That the next episode states that she apparently does this a lot doesn't help.
14* In ''Film/SleeplessInSeattle vs. Film/WhenHarryMetSally'', her excited expression when she has Todd (although we don't know that yet) captive and taped up. Basically this is the moment where you knew she had completely lost it.
15* In "Vampire Wine", a drunk Maven trying to stake an also drunk and uncaring Chick. Luckily for both of them, Nella still has her reflexes.
16* In the Top Ten Viral Videos From The Ancient Internet (Before Website/YouTube), the Chick goes over those weird old videos many of us found hilarious in high school and middle school [[OldShame for some reason.]] And then, midway through the sixth on the list (BADGERBADGERBADGERBADGER), [[spoiler:[[Franchise/TheSlenderManMythos the Slender Man shows up and statics you into a commercial break.]]]] Um...huh. [[UnexpectedCharacter Didn't see that coming.]] [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment It's also never mentioned again.]]
17* Anyone else freaked out when WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic was staring at Maven's Count Chocula cereal with an obsessive look on his face.
