Here's just one idea I have for this page. If you guys don't care for it, I have a couple other suggestions we could try instead:

Edit: SHIT! This was supposed to be for the Nightmare Fuel page. I have no idea why I wrote Awesome instead.

I changed the link. I can't tell very well what's going on there, other than that it's Surtur.

Not really seeing the nightmare material. It's a fire dude. There's a ton of those in fiction. Unless you've never watch TV, it's not really scary.

Like, at least try for something that's at least shocking to people above the age of 3, like Thor's gory empty eyeball socket.

[up] I get that fire is a common sight in fiction, but I'm pretty sure that a demonic, Chernabog-looking dude made of lava is a teensy bit more rare. Nevertheless, this seems to be an unpopular choice so far, so here's one of Thor post-Eye Scream:

^ Hela waking up her zombie mooks can work, but you'll probably need a closer crop to catch the details.

To add to the list, Sword Storm.

A close up of Surtur might work

Chernabog-looking dude made of lava is a teensy bit more rare.

Skull-looking dudes on fire? Hardly rare. Especially since flames burn flesh off people, it's sort of a go-to design in Fiction. Flaming Skeletal mooks are so common I'm amazed we don't have a page for it.

Of the proposed so far, gonna favor the Eye Scream. The Zombie picture is impossible to make out. And the picture of Hela has nothing scary. It's a woman in a silly hat doing nothing. Unless you have a phobia of silly hats, I doubt it's literally giving you nightmares.

Thor's missing eye is the best candidate so far.

Well, there is an article named Flaming Skulls, though that seems to literally just be "skulls on fire".

That scene of Surtur exploding from the Asgard palace/Surtur kicking the shit out of Asgard in general could work; or maybe a screenshot of the carnage from Hela vs. Valkyries.

Alright, so far it looks like Thor's empty eye socket is the most popular. I throw in a vote for that one as well. Anybody else?

Some other suggestions based on the ones from this thread. I still think that nothing in this movie particularly seems NF-image-worthy, but we might as well pick an image.

I'm not sure how many votes we need to crown an image. We've got four so far.

You know, the more I think about it, the less NF-ish I find Thor's missing eye, and nothing else even comes close to me.

Here is a crowner, hollerin' for a hook.

[up]Agreed, but I figure we might as well pick an image because this is the kind of film that might attract more suggestion threads.

Someone's gonna have to explain to me how swords in fantasy super hero movie is the stuff of nightmare that literally makes them wake up in a cold sweat.
